Dr. Dongsheng Jiang is a research scientist in Dr. Yuval Rinkevich’s lab, in the Institute of Regenerative Biology and Medicine, Helmholtz Munich. He is interested in fundamental questions of how skin develops during embryonic development and how scar develops during wound healing. His current research focuses on fibroblast heterogeneity, subcutaneous fascia, chronic wounds, and skin scarring. The overall aim of his research is to develop therapeutic options for chronic skin wounds with reduced scarring and enhanced regeneration.

Dongsheng Jiang’s dermatological research started during his postdoc study in Prof. Karin Scharffetter-Kochanek's lab, at Ulm University, which was focused on mesenchymal stem cells, skin wound healing, and skin aging. He obtained his PhD study in Prof. Herbert Schwarz's lab at National University Singapore, where he started to be interested in stem cell biology and immunology.
