個人簡介

Prof. JIANG Yangzi (姜洋子) received Bachelor (2007, Biology) and PhD (2012, Sports Medicine) in Zhejiang University, China, and received her postdoctoral training (2012-2018) at University of Pittsburgh, USA. Prof. Jiang joined CUHK in 2018 as Research Assistant Professor at institute for Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine (iTERM), School of Biomedical Sciences (SBS), and Assistant Professor (by courtesy) at Department of Orthopaedics & Traumatology (ORT). 

 

Prof. Jiang has extensive multi-discipline expertise in basic scientific research, medical translational research and education in stem cells and regenerative medicine. Prof. Jiang’s research focused on creating tissue regeneration strategies of musculoskeletal system, her publications cover the topics of stem cells, tissue engineering, cell transplantation, biomaterials, pathology of osteoarthritis, and translational medicine. Prof. Jiang has over 60 research outputs (H index 20, citation >2,000), serve as reviewer for more than 20 international journals and 3 international funding agencies. She has contributed to both textbooks and industrial guidelines to the field of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine, and her mentored students, doctors and scientists had been awarded with scholarships, research grants and honors from different universities, states, and countries (China, Australia, and United States). 

 

In 2019, Prof. Jiang led the first team in Hong Kong to receive national-level, cross-border research funding under the "Young Scientist Scheme" of National Key Research and Development (R&D) Program from Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) of China (PI, ~HK$6M, directly transferred to CUHK).
