Electrical Stimulation for cell vitalization
1. Body-mediated energy loss conversion system
Our group can design body movement-mediated or TENG-driven electrical stimulation system. To verify the effects of this system for cell vitalization, we can establish electrical stimulation setup/modalities in-vitro and in-vivo, considering optimized output range. And we observed that this body-mediated energy loss conversion system accelerated skin regeneration.
2. Stress Dissipation Encoded Silk Fibroin Electrode
Our group can fabricate the wearable triboelectric nanogenerators with improved mechanical performance and stable electrical responses using elastoplastic core electrodes and shell fabrics. In principle, active mobility with suggested wearables assists the effective workouts and potentially relieves muscular fatigues and severe injuries during daily fitness.
