Biography

Cheng-Hsin Chuang (M’04) received his B.S. degree and PhD degree from the National Cheng Kung University (NCKU) in 1995 and 2002, respectively, both in Civil Engineering. He then held the Postdoctoral research scholarship with the Center for Micro/Nano Science and Technology at NCKU, where he held the lead position in the core facilities for MEMS fabrication and Nanotechnology. In 2004, he joined the Micro Systems Technology Center at Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI), where he conducted the development of MEMS microphone and SAW-based biosensor. In 2005, he was recruited by the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Southern Taiwan University as an Assistant Professor. Currently, he is an Associate Professor and the Director of Micro and Nano Sensing Technology Lab (MANST Lab) and Roll-to-Roll Imprinting Center for Flexible Optoelectronic Devices (RicFod). His research interests focus on flexible tactile sensors, Roll-to-Roll imprinting technology, and DEP chips for single-cell-based and nanoparticles-based biosensors. He has published over 100 papers in different international journals and conferences and owned 10 patents in biosensor and tactile sensor. Dr. Chuang won two Special Awards of HIWIN Thesis Award in 2007 and 2008 as well as two best conference paper awards of 3rd IEEE NEMS in 2008 and Taiwan automation conference in 2010. His two patents won Gold Medal Award and Silver Medal Award of Taipei International Invention Show & Technomart Invention Contest in 2010 and 2011, respectively. For the academic service, he serves as the technical program committee of International Conference on Sensing Technology (ICST 2008~2012).
