Biography

Tan Lay Poh is an Assoc Prof in the School of Materials Science and Engineering, NTU, Singapore. Her training is on Polymer Engineering and has been working on biodegradable polymers and biopolymers for the past decade. She has published extensively in the top journals of biomaterials and tissue engineering.

Her research interest focuses on developing engineering platforms to investigate cell-material interactions that eventually guide the development of 3D scaffolds and cell culture platforms for soft tissue engineering.  For 3D systems, we have developed highly porous fibrous scaffold that mimics ECM physical properties. Hydrogel is also a major focus of our group where we develop ECM bio-chemistry mimicking systems which could be applied individually or combined with the fibrous platform to form hybrid ECM mimicking systems.
