Establishment and Development:

Tissue Engineering and Regeneration Laboratory was born from a shared vision and passion for the treatment of oral diseases and the promotion of regeneration of oral tissues. Recognizing the importance of biomaterials for the treatment of oral disease, our founder is dedicated to constructing engineered multi-layered active materials, for oral tissue regeneration and inflammation treatment by regulating signaling pathways and cell fate. After receiving his Ph.D. in 2019 from Shandong University, our principal investigator Baojin Ma worked as a postdoctoral fellow in Prof. Alberto Bianco’s group at the CNRS in Strasbourg (France) during 2019-2021. In February 2021, he joined the School of Stomatology, at Shandong University and started Tissue Engineering and Regeneration Laboratory (new). After three years of vigorous development, our lab has become a team of over twenty and possesses more than 200 square meters of area. Dr. Ma was selected as the “Qilu Young Scholars” of Shandong University and “Taishan Young Scholars” of Shandong Province and served as the leader of the Youth Innovation Team in Shandong Province's higher education institutions. Additionally, we have forged valuable collaborations and partnerships with the State Key Laboratory of Crystal Materials of Shandong University and CNRS at Strasbourg University to further enhance our research capabilities.

Team Members:

Our team is composed of one associate researcher, three post-doctors, three experimental technique workers, three doctors, and five masters. Together, they work tirelessly to design and synthesize multifunction biomaterials for nanomedicine and tissue repair.

Research Areas:

Tissue Engineering and Regeneration Laboratory specializes in the fields of multi-layer bioactive biomaterials, tissue engineering, and nanomedicine.

Research Achievements:

Our Lab is committed to achieving efficient tissue repair and inflammation treatment through structural regulation and functional design of materials, contributing to the development of oral medicine. Our achievements have been published on Nat. Rev. Mater.、Adv. Funct. Mater.、J. Am. Chem. Soc.、J. Dent. Res.、ACS Nano、Adv. Sci.、Small and other international high-level journals.

Facilities & Resources:

Our state-of-the-art facilities and cutting-edge technology enable us to conduct research that is both rigorous and innovative. We boast more than 200 square meters of experimental area, a laboratory animal room, and a cell laboratory. Our lab also equips more than 28 precise instruments such as a rheometer, lyophilizer, freezing microtome, and fluorescence microscope.

Collaborations & Partnerships:

We believe in the power of collaboration. Our Lab has close cooperation with Prof. Alberto Bianco, who is a Fellow of the European Academy of Science and Academia Europaea, who in 2019 obtained the CNRS Silver Medal and since 2011 has been the Editor of the journal Carbon. Meanwhile, we also cooperate with Prof. Hong Liu, who is a professor at Shandong University and was awarded Distinguished Young Scholar by the National Natural Science Foundation of China. Prof. Liu has published more than 400 papers with a total citation of over 36000 and H-index of 86. In 2022, as Editor-in-Chief, he launched a new journal, BMEMat.

Recreational Activities:

We often have dinner parties and go camping outdoors in the spring and fall. Snacks and drinks are available in the laboratory seating area
