Snow Fellow, Australian Heart Foundation Future Leader Fellow and Australian Academy of Science John Booker Medal, The University of Sydney, School of Biomedical Engineering.
Dr. Ju received his PhD in Biomedical Engineering at Georgia Institute of Technology and Emory University, USA in 2013. From 2014 to 2019, he joined the Australian Centre for Blood Diseases, Monash University, Melbourne, then Heart Research Institute, Sydney as an Australian Heart Foundation Postdoc Fellow. In early 2020, Dr. Ju became an independent PI at the University of Sydney (USYD)’s new School of Biomedical Engineering and started up the Mechanobiology and Biomechanics Laboratory (MBL).
Dr. Ju works at the biomedical engineering and mechanobiology. His team has pioneered multiple biomechanical nanotools, including multi-parametric thrombus profiling microfluidics (Nature Communications 2024; Advanced Healthcare Materials 2025), patient-specific vessel-on-a-chip platform (Advanced Materials 2025), Vascular biofabrication (Science 2025), single-cell biomembrane force probes (Nature Materials 2019; Nature Communications 2018), 4D hemodynamic modeling (Nature 2021; Blood 2025) and fluorescent micropipette aspiration assays (Nature Communications 2024). His novel understanding of the mechanics behind blood clot formation has profound implications for diagnosing and preventing thrombosis in heart attacks and strokes. His vision is to build novel platforms that integrate advanced biomanufacturing, high-throughput biomechanical phenotyping, and generative AI towards rapid and intelligent biosensing technologies for aging, diabetes, obesity, hypertension, vaccine and autoimmune related thrombotic risks.
