Chun Xu

Dr. Chun Xu is an Honorary Senior Research Fellow at the School of Dentistry, The University of Queensland, and an affiliate of the Centre for Orofacial Regeneration, Reconstruction and Rehabilitation (COR3). His research focuses on nanomaterials, biomaterials, and regenerative medicine, particularly in dental and bone tissue engineering. Xu holds a PhD in Materials Science from The University of Queensland (2016) and has authored over 150 peer-reviewed publications.

His work integrates nanotechnology with clinical applications, including drug delivery systems, stem cell therapy, and bioengineered scaffolds. Xu collaborates extensively with interdisciplinary teams to advance treatments for osteoarthritis, neurodegenerative diseases, and dental regeneration. His studies on mesoporous silica nanoparticles and photodynamic therapy highlight his expertise in translational biomedical research.

Key research themes include: nanomaterials for bone regeneration, immunomodulatory drug delivery, and personalized bioengineered implants. Xu’s publications span high-impact journals like Nature Biomedical Engineering, Advanced Materials, and Biomaterials.

Labs/Teams: Active contributor to the COR3 initiative, advancing interdisciplinary approaches in orofacial regeneration.
