I was graduated from several famous universities in China and got my diplomas of MD(DDS), PhD and MSc separately. I have also had three years of postdoctoral experience on Tissue Engineering and Adult Stem-cell research. I had been a senior surgeon of oral and maxillofacial surgery and a professor in the key laboratory of biomedical engineering for more than a decade before I left China in 2007. My surgical skill and past anatomical experience are advantages in my experiments on different animals. I have even performed reconstructive experiments on different animals, such as mouse, rat, rabbit, dog and sheep. I have already mastered inhalation anaesthesia with trachea intubation and peri-operative management of many animals during my academic research.
