Joseph Wang is currently a SAIC Endowed Chair, Distinguished Professor of Chemical and Nano Engineering, and Director of the Center for Wearable Sensors at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD). His research focuses on field of nanobioelectronics and nanorobotics, and his contributions have greatly enhanced the power and scope of applications of nanomachines. They have had major impacts upon the fields of wearable sensors, the use of nanomaterials in bioanalysis, and upon the growing popularity of electroanalytical techniques. Prof. Wang has authored over 1,200 research papers (H-index 211 using Google Scholar), 50 patents, 40 chapters and 12 books, and he has presented more than 350 invited and plenary lectures in 60 countries. Prof. Wang has served on the Editorial Boards of many major international journals (in the fields of nanotechnology, electrochemistry, sensors and analytical chemistry) and has been awarded many prestigious international awards. He is the recipient of the NSF Special Creativity Award in 2008, the 1999, 2006, and 2024 American Chemical Society Awards for Chemical Instrumentation, Electrochemistry, and Analytical Chemistry, respectively, the 2018 Electrochemical Society (ECS) Sensor Outstanding Achievement Award, the ISI 'Citation Laureate' Award for being the Most Cited Scientist in Engineering in the World (during 1991-2001). Additionally, he has also been an ISI Thomson Reuters & Clarivate Analytics Highly Cited Researcher (in both Engineering and Chemistry between 2014 and 2024). He is a Fellow of the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineers (AIMBE), the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science in 2000, the US National Academy of Inventors (NAI) in 2022, the National Academy of Science of Turkey (TUBA) in 2022, the Europen Academy of Engineering (EAE) and the European Academy of Science and Arts (EASE) in 2024.
