New York, New York, United States

Dr. Guo was born and grew up in China and received his B.S. in Applied Mechanics from Peking University. He continued his graduate studies in the US and received his M.S. in 1990 and Ph.D. in 1994 in Medical Engineering and Medical Physics from Harvard University-MIT. From 1994-1996, Professor Guo did his postdoctoral fellowship in the Orthopaedic Research Laboratories at the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor. In 1996, he joined the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Biomedical Engineering at Columbia University as an Assistant Professor. He was promoted to Associate Professor with tenure in 2003, Professor in 2007, and named Stanley Dicker Professor in 2018. He directs the Bone Bioengineering Laboratory in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Columbia, focusing his research interests on micromechanics of bone tissue, computational biomechanics, and mechanobiology of bone. His past honors include the Young Investigator Recognition Award from the Orthopaedic Research Society, the National Research Service Award from the US National Institutes of Health (NIH), a CAREER award from the US National Foundation of Science (NSF), Funds for Talented Professionals (Joint Research Fund for Overseas Chinese Young Scholars) from the National Natural Science Foundation of China, and Christopher R Jacobs Award from Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES).
