Biography

Fengdi Gao is a PhD student in Regenerative Medicine at Aalborg University. His research focuses on developing 3D-bioprinted, human cell-based vascular models to investigate the phenotype and function of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Gao aims to overcome the limitations of traditional 2D cultures and animal models by creating in vitro vascular systems that enable mechanistic studies of VSMCs, endothelial cells, and extracellular matrix dynamics. Ultimately, his goal is to establish high-throughput, customizable platforms to advance cardiovascular disease modeling and accelerate drug discovery for preclinical evaluation. Gao has actively contributed to research projects including the PULSE initiative, which aims at a precise understanding of vascular smooth muscle disease through advanced 3D-printed models.
