个人简介

Dr Tai is a senior lecturer in Organic and Polymer Chemistry in the School of Chemistry at Bangor University. Dr Tai’s scientific background has covered a wide range and she has accumulated substantial research and industrial experience and expertise on the development of novel polymer materials, e.g. seeking their synthetic routes, characterising their structures, investigating their properties, evaluating their post processisiblity, and developing their applications. Dr Tai’s recent research focuses on the development of synthetic and natural polymeric biomaterials for wound healing and drug delivery. Dr Tai has published more than 30 articles in peer-reviewed journals and two book chapters. She has also presented her research findings at more than 30 national and international conferences. Dr Tai envisages that the rational designed multifunctional polymers have great potential as advanced macro-, micro- and nano- devices for wide applications, including in tissue engineering, targeted drug delivery, and sensing and imaging for diagnostics. Dr. Tai’s research interests focus on design, synthesis, engineering and formulation of functional synthetic biomacromolecules as polymeric macro/micro/nano- devices or polymeric/biopolymer hybrid systems for tissue engineering and drug delivery. She also works on the development of natural biopolymers from renewable sources for personal care and medical applications. Dr Tai teaches undergraduate and postgraduate modules on the subjects in Organic Chemistry and Polymer Chemistry, as well as General and Research skills for Chemists. Dr Tai is also the Director of Postgraduate Taught Programmes (MSc and MRes Courses Coordinator) in the School of Chemistry.

研究领域

Dr Tai is a polymer scientist. Her research concerns both synthetic polymers and natural polymers, including the synthesis, isolation, functionalization and engineering of polymeric materials for a variety of applications, in particular, for biological and biomedical applications. Polymeric biomaterials with rational designed and engineered chemical composition, functionality and topologies are highly desirable for drug delivery, tissue engineering, sensing, imaging and diagnostics. We isolate, synthesize and functionalize polymeric biomaterials by chemical and/or enzymatic approaches, living/controlled radical polymerisations, click chemistry and bioconjugation techniques. In addition, self-assembly and colloidal behaviours of biomacromolecules as well as physical and processing properties of polymeric biomaterials are studies. More details for Dr Tai’s research work can be found on our departmental research pages for ‘Materials Chemistry’ and ‘Chemistry at Life Sciences Interface’. The current research projects in her group include: Development of Biodegradable and thermoresponsive synthetic polymers for injectable tissue engineering hydrogels Development of multifunctional pH responsive dendritic polymers for targeted drug delivery Synthesis and processing of biodegradable PLA and PLGA polymers Development of biobased hydrogels from polysaccharides and plant oils Extraction, characterisation and modification of biopolymers (e.g. alginate) from natural resources (e.g. brown seaweed) Development of alginate derivatives for hydrogel applications Development of crosslinkable polymers for 3D printing Current Main Collaborators: University College Dublin Vornia Biomaterials ConvaTec Ltd Revolymer Ltd Marine Biopolymer Ltd
