BIOGRAPHY
Gang Li is a non-clinical full professor (since 2009) in the Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, Faculty of Medicine, The Chinese University of Hong Kong. Previous to this appointment, he was Lecturer, Senior Lecturer and Reader (1998-2009), at Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, School of Medicine, Queen's University, Belfast, UK.
Prof. Li earned an MBBS at the Fourth Military Medical University, Xian, China (1991), and a D. Phil at the University of Oxford School of Medicine, England, UK (1998). The focus of his research are on studies of the biological mechanisms of distraction osteogenesis, stem cell biology, circulating mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), the use of MSCs for cell therapy applications, musculoskeletal tissue regeneration and repair.
Prof. Li has published more than 220 peer-reviewed SCI articles with citations over 4500 and H index 40; 15 book chapters, edited 3 books on tissue engineering, distraction histogenesis, leg-lengthening and Ilizarov techniques. He is a council member of Chinese Orthopaedic Research Society; Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine Society, Chinese Association of Biomedical Engineering; Vice Chairman, Division of Regenerative Biomaterials, Chinese Association of Biomaterials; Chairman of ILLRS and ASAMI China Branch. He is associate editor for Journal of Orthopaedic Translation; editor for Calcified Tissue International, Bone and Joint Research, and Bone. He holds honorary or visiting Professorship at many prestigious universities such as Monash University, Australia; University of Malaya, Malaysia; Sichuan University, China; South-East University Medical School, China; The Airforce Medical University, China; Guangdong Medical University and Jilin University, China. His work received serval awards including the 1st Class Research Award in Science and Technology, Ministry of Education, China; 2nd Class Award in Medical Science and Technology, China Medical Association; 1st Class Award in China Medical Science, China International Exchange and Promotion Association for Medical and Healthcare.
