评论了 Model-Directed Design of Tissue Engineering Scaffolds
Scaffold-based tissue engineering has greatly benefited from advancements in material fabrication, enabling the creation of structures that closely mimic native tissues. Despite these advancements, finding the optimal scaffold design through traditional methods is tedious and costly. Leveraging computational optimization can rapidly identify ideal scaffold parameters, but it requires ongoing collaboration between computational modeling and material science experts, as well as improvements in fabrication methods and more physiologically accurate simulations.

评论了 Taking research into the community
We have a similar initiative for the community engagement. Particularly, we have a science cafe and health cafe series to engage general public for new scientific and medical knowledges as well as clinical research. We have a web of non-profit community organization partners (e.g. YMCA, YWCA) tp recruit community members.

评论了 Medical science must address health disparities amongst different ethnic groups
Good good article published in Nature Human Behavior. To make healthcare better for everyone, we need to understand and respect different cultures, learn from the past, and make sure all groups are fairly represented. We should have diverse teams in health and research, and always fight against racism. By including everyone's voice, we can build trust and make healthcare fair for all.
