Chien-Chi Lin develops engineered hydrogels u2014soft, water-rich polymer networks u2014that mimic the physical and chemical environment of living tissue. These materials are used to grow cells and mini-organs (organoids), study how tissue stiffness affects cancer cells, and support tissue repair such as muscle regeneration, often using 'click chemistry' reactions and 3D bioprinting to build the gels. The work bridges materials chemistry with biomedical applications like cancer modeling and regenerative medicine.
