CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND PROBLEM


Prof. Jackie Ying is a person whose services cannot be forgotten in the
discovery and appreciation in the world. The great role that has been done by
him, especially in the field of science that is very useful until now. Indeed, if
we observe the figure of this young professor is a unique and smart person.
Prof. Jackie Ying was born in Taipei, and raised in Singapore and New York.
He graduated with the title summa laude in Chemical Engineering from The
Cooper Union in 1987. As an AT&T Bell Laboratories PhD Scholar at
Princeton University, he began research in materials chemistry, linking the
importance of material processing and microstructure to the tailoring of
material surface chemistry. and energetic. He pursued research in
nanocrystalline materials with Prof. Herbert Gleiter at the Institute for New
Materials, Saarbrücken, Germany as nsf-NATO Post-doctoral Fellow and
Alexander von Humboldt Research Fellow. He joined the faculty of Chemical
Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 1992, and
became the youngest Full Professor at the age of 35 in 2001.
As a figure who has more than 180 major patents granted or is still in the
process, 32 of them have been licensed to multinationals and startups. He has
served on the Board of Directors and/or Advisory Board of 10 startups and 2
venture capital funds. One spin-off company he co-founded, SmartCells, Inc.,
has developed a technology platform capable of automatically regulating the
release of insulin therapy depending on blood glucose levels. Merck acquires
SmartCells, Inc. in 2010. Therefore, this paper will be presented about
biography, until the greatest achievement of Prof. Jackie Ying, which with
this paper can inspire readers to be able to follow or can inspire readers to be

DISCUSSION

2.1 Biography of Prof. Jackie Ying


Jackie Y. Ying was born in Taipei, and raised in Singapore and New
York. She graduated with BE summa cum laude in Chemical Engineering
from The Cooper Union in 1987. As an AT&T Bell Laboratories PhD Scholar
at Princeton University, she began research in materials chemistry, linking
the importance of materials processing and microstructure with the tailoring
of materials surface chemistry and energetics. She pursued research in
nanocrystalline materials with Prof. Herbert Gleiter at the Institute for New
Materials, Saarbrücken, Germany as NSF-NATO Post-doctoral Fellow and
Alexander von Humboldt Research Fellow. She joined the Chemical
Engineering faculty at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 1992,
and became its youngest Full Professor at the age of 35 in 2001.

Prof. Ying is currently the Executive Director of the Institute of


Bioengineering and Nanotechnology (IBN), Singapore. IBN is a
multidisciplinary institute founded by Prof. Ying in March 2003 to advance
the frontiers of engineering, science and medicine; it has grown to 150
research staff under Prof. Ying’s leadership. IBN’s research is focused on
nanomedicine, synthetic biosystems, biodevices and diagnostics, and green
chemistry and energy. Over 1,300 papers have been published by IBN staff
in leading scientific journals. IBN’s innovative research has led to over 660
patents and patent applications, 133 of which have been licensed. This
national research institute has spun off 13 start-up companies. It has trained
122 PhD students. Its Youth Research Program has actively reached out to
over 108,340 students and teachers from 290 local and overseas
schools/universities through open houses, workshops and seminars. IBN staff
has mentored over 2,660 students and teachers in full-time research
internships for a period of at least 1 month.

Prof. Ying’s research is interdisciplinary in nature, with a theme in the
synthesis of advanced nanostructured materials for biomaterial and catalytic
applications. Her laboratory has been responsible for several novel wet-
chemical and physical vapor synthesis approaches that create
nanocomposites, nanoporous materials and nanodevices with unique size-
dependent characteristics. These new systems are designed for applications
ranging from biosensors and diagnostics, nanomedicine and targeted delivery
of drugs, cell culture substrates and biomaterials, in vitro toxicology and drug
screening, pharmaceuticals and chemicals synthesis, to battery and fuel cells.
Prof. Ying has authored over 350 articles with more than 24,040 citations (h
index: 72). She has presented over 470 invited lectures at international
conferences, and 120 invited seminars at universities and institutions.

2.2 Background and Education of Prof. Jackie Ying


Jackie Y. Ying earned a BE&D. according to The Cooper Union &Princeton
University, respectively. He joined the faculty at the Massachusetts Institute
of Technology in 1992, where he was Professor of Chemical Engineering
until 2005. He was the Founding Executive Director of the Institute of
Biotechnology & Nanotechnology in Singapore from 2003. For his research
on nanostructured materials, Prof. Ying has been recognized using the
American Ceramic Society Ross C. Purdy Award, David and Lucile Packard

Prof. Ying was elected as the Global Young Leader of the World Economic
Forum, & member of the German National Academy of Sciences,
Leopoldina. He was named error one according to AIChE's "Hundred
Modern Era Engineers" at his Centennial Celebration. He was selected by
The Muslim 500 in 2012, 2013 & 2014 as one of the 500 most influential
Muslims in the world. She was inducted into the Singapore Women's Hall of
Fame in 2014. He is the Editor-in-Chief of Nano Today, which has an impact
factor of 18,432.

2.3 Honours and awards from Prof. Jackie Ying


In 2017, Ying was named a Fellow of the United States National Academy
of Inventors (NAI), the first time a Singapore-based scientist earned the highest
professional accolade for academic inventors. The status is given to academic
inventors who have shown a spirit of innovation in creating or facilitating
outstanding inventions that have contributed to society. At that time Ying had
more than 180 primary patents and patent applications which led to 11 spin-
offs. One such spin-off — SmartCells Inc., had a technology that is capable of
autoregulating the release of insulin, depending on the blood glucose levels for
treating diabetes. The company was acquired by pharmaceutical giant Merck
in 2010.

In 2020, Ying received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Journal of


Drug Targeting for "her many outstanding contributions in the fields of
nanotechnology and nanomedicine including drug delivery and targeting”. In
2021, she was elected to the National Academy of Engineering. She has served
as the Editor in Chief of Nano Today, and is currently advising the journal as
Editor Emeritus.

2.4 Latest Discoveries


As a PhD In at&T Bell Laboratory at Princeton University, he began
research in the field of chemicals. He pursued research on nanocrystalline
materials using Prof. Herbert Gleiter at the Institute for New Materials,
Saarbrücken, Germany becoming an NSF-NATO Post-doctoral Fellow &
Alexander von Humboldt Research Fellow. He joined the faculty of Chemical

Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 1992, as
the youngest Full Professor at the age of 35 in 2001.
Ying is currently the Executive Director according to the Institute of
Biotechnology & Nanotechnology (IBN), Singapore. IBN is a
multidisciplinary forum established by Prof. Ying in March 2003 to advance
the boundaries of engineering, science and medicine.
Ying has more than 180 primary patents granted or suspended, 32 of
which have been licensed to multinationals and startups. He was also selected
as a student of the Islamic World Academy of Sciences in 2017. Related to
the rapid test of Covid-19 quickly created, Prof. Ying hopes to be approved
at one month. This test looks for viral genetic material in the patient's
secretions. This sample is then inserted into a portable device that will put the
output at approximately 5 to 10 minutes, using a very fast amplification
method that they call Fast.
"We've done some initial clinical validation on hospital beds using real
patient samples, finding the test to be very sensitive and thorough," Prof Ying
said. Once approved, the technology can be used to create a useful kit for sick
shelters. So that it can be adjusted to be used in general practitioner clinics.
He and his team are among the researchers on all global races to fight
the Covid-19 pandemic. The challenge, prof Ying termed, is to deploy rapid
and careful diagnostics that can be done without the use of expensive
machines. Prof Ying said he and his team of scientists had been working
tirelessly for about six weeks to conduct a quick test. He hopes his quick tests
can be useful for the medical energy of Singapore or other countries.
