Xin Lu (Lux)
(xl79@columbia.edu) is a postdoc in the Bone Bioengineering Lab. He received
his bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering from Tsinghua University ,
Beijing , China , in 1998. After joining the Department of Biomedical
Engineering of Columbia University in 2001, he has been working with Prof.
Van C. Mow on cartilage biomechanics and obtained his Ph.D. degree in 2006.
His current research projects in the bone lab include biomechanical
behaviors of TMJ joint, mechanotransduction of bone cell network, and
mixture theories for biological tissues |

Xiaowei Sherry Liu
(xl2014@columbia.edu) joined the bone bioengineering lab in 2003 as a Ph.D student.
After graduation in 2007, she continued to work as a postdoc in the lab. She
got her B.S. degree from Tsinghua University in 2002, and M.S. degree from
Columbia University in 2004. Her research focus on the development of new
image analysis technique for evaluation of trabecular bone microstructure,
finite element methods for efficient assessment of mechanical properties of
trabecular bone, and the simulation of trabecular bone remodeling. Currently
she is also exploring her interest in in-vivo animal model, as well as
mechanical testing of trabecular bone. |

Dr. Meilin Ét¨¦ Chan ( mc2064<at>columbia.edu
) was a graduate student of the Bone Bioengineering lab. She graduated from
the Hong Kong Polytechnic University for her B.S. degree in 2003 and
received her M.S. degree from Columbia University in 2005. Her current
project is to study the role of gap junctions in bone adaptation, using a 3D trabecular bone explant culture model. She also worked on another project
adopting a rat model to determine the combined effect of parathyroid hormone
