Joseph Wang is an American researcher and inventor. Wang is Distinguished Professor, SAIC Endowed Chair,[1] and Chair of the Department of Nanoengineering at the University of California, San Diego specializing in nanomachines, biosensors, nanobioelectronics, wearable devices, and electrochemistry. He also serves as the Director of the Center for Wearable Sensors[2] at the University of California San Diego Jacobs School of Engineering.

Biography

Joseph Wang studied chemistry at the Technion and was awarded the BSc degree in 1972 and an MSc degree in 1974. After completing his D.Sc. at the Technion in 1978, he served as a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. In 1980, he joined the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at New Mexico State University, where he became a Regents Professor and holder of the Manasse Chair.

Wang founded the journal Electroanalysis (Wiley-VCH) in 1988 and has been Editor-in-Chief for three decades till 2017. In 2004–2008, he served as the Director of the Center for Bioelectronics and Biosensors at the Biodesign Institute and as a Professor of Chemical Engineering and Chemistry at Arizona State University (ASU). Since 2008, Wang has served as Distinguished Professor of Nanoengineering at the University of California, San Diego, and as Department Chair since 2014.

Fields of research

Joseph Wang's earlier research focused on electrochemical biosensors and detectors for clinical diagnostics and environmental monitoring, with particular emphasis on blood glucose monitoring for diabetes management. Wang's current research interests include the development of nanomotors and nanomachines, wearable non-invasive sensors, electrochemical biosensors,[3]

bioelectronics, microfluidic (“Lab-on-a-Chip”) devices, and remote sensors for environmental and security monitoring. His contributions in these directions have been of major impact in the development of electrochemical sensing techniques and man-made nanomachines. He was named a Highly Cited Researcher (Clarivate Analytics) in Engineering and Chemistry over the 2014-2018 period. He was ranked the ‘Most Cited Researcher in Engineering’ during 1997–2007, as well as the ‘Most Cited Chemist’ in ISI’s lists of ‘Most Cited Researchers in Chemistry’ for the same period and of '2015 World's Most Influential Scientific Minds'. Joseph Wang has authored 1060 research papers, 11 books, 30 patents, and 35 chapters. His publications have been cited over 100,000 times and his H-Index (Google Scholar) is 158. His books include: "Stripping Analysis" (VCH-1985), "Analytical Electrochemistry" (Wiley 2006) and "Nanomachines" (Wiley-VCH 2013). Over 40 Ph.D. candidates and 250 post-doctoral fellows have collaborated with Wang.

Wang led a team that successfully merged efforts in the fields of biosensors, bioelectronics and nanotechnology to fashion nanocrystals that can act as amplifying tags for DNA or protein biosensors. This creates enormous potential for applications for early disease diagnosis. Wang's work in the field of nanomachines, involving novel motor designs and applications, has led to the world fastest nanomotor, first demonstration of nanomotor operation in living organism, to a novel motion-based DNA biosensing,[4] and nanomachine-enabled isolation of biological targets, e.g. cancer-cell isolation and to advanced motion control in the nanoscale{{dead link|date=February 2019|bot=medic}}{{cbignore|bot=medic}}. He has also pioneered the use of body-worn printed flexible electrochemical sensors and biofuel cells (including textile and epidermal-tattoo devices), microneedle-based electrochemical biosensors for real-time, pain-free quantification of circulating metabolites and electrolytes, 'green' bismuth electrodes for sensing toxic metals and remote submersible devices for continuous environmental monitoring.
