Biological Systems & Disease Mechanisms

Research focus
This research area investigates biological processes and disease mechanisms relevant to human health, providing essential context and validation for technology development. Key topics include biological barrier function, neurodegenerative diseases, and the impact of environmental factors such as microplastics on human physiology. Using cellular and molecular approaches, this area contributes to understanding how biological systems respond to materials and devices, enabling more effective and translational solutions.
