Bin Duan, PhD
Associate Professor, Division of Cardiovascular Medicine
Mary & Dick Holland Regenerative Medicine Program
Dr. Duan received his PhD from the University of Hong Kong and his post-doc training in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Cornell University. He joined the University of Nebraska Medical Center in November 2015.
Dr. Duan’s lab focuses on the development of novel biomaterials and advanced biofabrication techniques. The research goal of Dr. Duan’s lab is to create multi-scale complexity within engineered tissues to understand the fundamentals of cell-material interactions and mimic the native tissues for tissue regeneration.
