Abstract
 

Embark on a captivating journey through the corridors of translational medicine as our lab's multidisciplinary research seamlessly navigates the realms of cardiac regeneration, cancer nanomedicine, and visionary iPSC leadership.

Cardiac Regeneration Insights:
Uncover groundbreaking investigations into postnatal cardiomyocyte potential, leveraging innovative techniques such as isotope-imaging NMR/mass spectrometry, genetic fate-mapping mouse models, and human iPSC-derived cardiac cell transplantation. Explore novel therapeutic targets for promoting adult cardiomyocyte regeneration post-myocardial infarction.

Nanomedicine Innovations:
Discover our contributions to a reloadable multi-drug capturing delivery system, showcasing potential for sequential administration of protein drugs in murine and porcine models. Witness the development of aptamer-based lipid nanovectors for precise delivery of nanotherapeutics, successfully treating conditions like cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

iPSC Leadership:
Experience over eight years of visionary leadership in Taiwan's national iPSC Core, generating 520+ human iPSC lines, and establishing the Taiwan iPSC Bank with 112 lines for public use. Elevate Taiwan among the top 5 iPSC banks globally, marking a transformative impact on the future of biomedical sciences and clinical practice.

Join us as we bridge gaps between disciplines, paving the way for transformative advances in cardiovascular health, cancer treatment, and the revolutionary field of iPSCs.
