Dr. Chou’s research interests include synthesis and characterization of functional biomaterials for drug release and tissue engineering applications. Currently he is working on the development of drug-eluting fibers that can be used for dressing materials to promote healing of chronic and/or non-healing wounds. He is also interested in fabrication of “designer surfaces” using polymeric membranes to provide anticoagulation properties for implantable biomedical devices.
Highly motivated graduate students interested in doing hands-on experiments of biomaterials in a hypothesis-driven
environment are encouraged to applied with a CV to Dr. Chou’s email. Undergraduate research projects are
available, and interested candidates are welcome to discuss potential research opportunities with Dr. Chou.
