报告摘要：
UCL is one of the global top research intensive universities on a research output dominated by its Biomedical and Engineering Faculties. UCL’s contribution to the programme will be led by Institute of Orthopaedics and Musculoskeletal Science (IOMS) which is an internationally leading Centre of research and postgraduate training. Its research straddling medical and bio-medical engineering applications. It has reputation and track record for innovative translation research, and has established expertise in technology transferring such as Stanmore Implant Worldwide. UCL and staffs from the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital and other affiliated hospitals lead units of major importance in clinical care and are at the cutting edge of research and development in medical devices innovation, cell-engineering and rapid fabrication of tissues, as well as healthcare engineering. These have applications in musculoskeletal system rehabilitation and vascular regeneration.
Based at University College London, we’re pioneering and developing the next generation of healthcare innovations, aiming to optimise treatment and improve the lives of patients across the globe. Our professional engineers and skilled clinicians work side by side to enhance existing methods of diagnosis, therapy and monitoring. UCL medical science provides a unique environment for collaboration between scientists, engineers, and clinicians in an Academic Health Sciences Centre model, in order to speed up the development of improvements in patient care.

个人简介：
Dr Chaozong Liu is an Associate Professor at UCL Institute of Orthopaedics & Musculoskeletal Science in associate with the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital Stanmore. He is the MSc in Musculoskeletal Science Course Tutor within UCL Division of Surgery and Interventional Science. He received his Ph D in Orthopaedic Bioengineering from Newcastle University in 2007. Then worked in Oxford University as a Wellcome Trust Research Fellow, Lecturer in Bioengineering at Newcastle University prior to the present appointment.
His current research is directed toward biomedical devices processing for enhancing the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders.  Specifically, his research interest includes (1) design and development of scaffold technology for musculoskeletal tissue repair and regeneration. (2) Customized medical devices for intervention of musculoskeletal disorders. (3) Biomedical device surface processing for regulate protein adsorption and cells attachment. 
He has published more than 150 papers include peer-reviewed articles, conference papers, and edited books in the areas of biomaterials and bioengineering. He was elected as a member of EPSRC Peer Review College in 2014, and was elected as one of the prestigious Visiting Fellows at Oxford St Jhon’s College in 2009. He was one of the founding members of International Society of Bionics Engineering (ISBE) (est 2010), and served on the Editorial board of Journal of Bionics Engineering, and Frontiers in Biomechanics, and on the Biodesign and Manufacturing Journal.
