Chen Meng

Post Doctoral Researcher
About

Chen received BSc in Materials Science and Engineering from the University of Manchester. He then completed PhD in Polymer and Composite at the University of Manchester under mentorship of Prof. Hugh Gong and Dr. Jiashen Li. During his PhD, he mainly worked on the development of electrospun 3D nanofibrous scaffold for the regeneration of bone tissue. Additionally, he led the development of nanofibrous vascular graft as well as other advanced application of electrospun nanofibers such as air filtration and electromagnetic shielding. Chen’s research interests are focused on the development of strategies to bind natural pigments and cellulosic fibres, the work done in collaboration with Colorifix and funded by BBSRC Prosperity Partnership. In his spare time, Chen enjoys running and badminton.
