Skin Regeneration Lab
Research Field
I am a faculty member in the Department of Fragrance and Cosmetic Science, College of Pharmacy, Kaohsiung Medical University. My professional expertise lies in cosmetic science and medical device–related research, with a research focus on skin regeneration and wound healing, particularly in skin barrier repair, inflammation modulation, and tissue regeneration.
My laboratory is especially interested in extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from natural products, such as royal jelly and honey, and their roles in regulating fibroblast migration, angiogenesis, and immune responses. In parallel, we conduct translational research exploring cosmetic and medical device applications related to skin health and wound care.
I have extensive experience mentoring undergraduate, graduate, and international students. Visiting and exchange students are welcome to join an open and supportive research environment, where research topics and training are tailored to each student’s academic background and interests.
