About
Xiumei Mo is a pioneering figure in biomaterials and tissue engineering, renowned for her innovative work in scaffold fabrication for regenerative medicine. Her research focuses on developing advanced biocompatible materials and fabrication techniques, particularly for bone and cartilage repair. Mo's most-cited paper, "Fabrication of 3D chitosan–hydroxyapatite scaffolds using a robotic dispensing system" (2002, 273 citations), introduced a groundbreaking method for creating three-dimensional scaffolds that mimic natural bone structure. This work demonstrated the synergistic combination of chitosan, a natural polymer, with hydroxyapatite, a mineral component of bone, using robotic dispensing to achieve precise architecture and porosity. The study has had a profound impact on the field, providing a scalable and reproducible approach for tissue engineering scaffolds. Mo's contributions have advanced the understanding of how material composition and fabrication methods influence cell behavior and tissue regeneration. Her work continues to inspire researchers in biomaterials, with her scaffold design principles being widely adopted for applications in orthopedics and beyond.
