Yongtao Lyu is currently an associate professor at the Department of Engineering Mechanics, Dalian University of Technology, China. He obtained his bachelor's and master's of engineering degrees (2001-2007) from Huazhong University of Science and Technology (nationally TOP 10), China. Then he received the EPSRC scholarship and completed his Ph.D. study (2007-2010) at Cardiff University, UK. Afterward, he worked as a postdoctoral researcher (2010-2013) at the Institute of Biomechanics, Hamburg University of Technology, Germany, and then as a senior research associate (2013-2015) at the Institute for Insilico Medicine, the University of Sheffield, UK.

Dr. Lyu's main research interests lie primarily in the mechanical behavior of biomaterials, the computational modeling of human body systems, and the bionic design of bone scaffolds. Dr. Lyu has published over 40 SCI-indexed academic papers.
