  Huang, Ngan 
  Academic Appointments Acting Assistant Professor,  Cardiothoracic Surgery - Adult Cardiac Surgery
  Assistant Professor,  Cardiothoracic Surgery - Adult Cardiac Surgery
  Member,  Child Health Research Institute
  Member,  Bio-X
  
  Research Interest

  Dr. Huang’s laboratory aims to understand the chemical and mechanical interactions between extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins and pluripotent stem cells that regulate vascular and myogenic differentiation. The fundamental insights of cell-matrix interactions are applied towards stem cell-based therapies with respect to improving cell survival and regenerative capacity, as well as engineered vascularized tissues for therapeutic implantation.
