Brief
Biography |
Dr. Cheng-Hsien Liu received his Ph.D.
degree in Mechanical Engineering from Stanford University. Since Autumn 2000,
he has been with National Tsing Hua University, Taiwan, Republic of China, as
an assistant professor in the Power Mechanical Engineering Department and a
joint faculty member in the Institute of Nano Engineering and Micro Systems.
Presently he is a professor in the Power Mechanical Engineering Department and Institute
of NanoEngineering and MicroSystems
at National Tsing Hua University. He had served as the Chairman of International
Intercollegiate Ph.D. Program March 2015 through July 2016. In 1999-2000, he
worked as a senior Electrical Engineer at Halo Data Devices Inc., San Jose,
where he focused on the development of micro-drives for portable information
storage applications. While at Stanford, he worked with Dr. Kenny at Stanford
Micro-structures and Sensors Laboratory and focused his Ph.D. work
on high-performance MEMS sensors. He currently oversees graduate students in
the Micro-Systems and Control Laboratory,
whose research activities cover a variety of areas in MicroElectroMechanical Systems, System Dynamics/Modeling/Control
and Nanotechnology such as biomimetic array chip for bio-object
manipulation targeting for tissue engineering/ drug screening applications, Bio
Lab on a chip, Micro Total Analysis Systems, Liver on Lab Chip, Biomedical
Instruments, microphotonics, and advanced tunable
MEMS grating for optical communication applications, and microsystem
robust/optimal control. He received A. Kobayashi Young Investigator
Award in Experimental Science from International Conference on
Computational and Experimental Engineering and Sciences in 2010, the award of Outstanding
Chemical Engineering Article of the Year 2010, Outstanding Research
Program Award from National Science and Technology Program in the
Biomedical field (2012), 2011
Outstanding Research Award from National Science Council (NSC)
in 2012 (100年度國科會傑出研究獎), etc. Recently
he receives multi-year research fund from the 2021 Engineering-Technology Leap
Program from Ministry of Science and Technology, Taiwan, R.O.C. (獲科技部工程司『110年度工程科技中堅躍升研究計畫』) This Engineering-Technology
Leap Program aims to boost elite mature scholars and promote top research
scholars to obtain breakthrough and state-of-the-art research results in the
field of engineering and technology. He also receives multi-year research funds of
Interdisciplinary Integration of Advanced Medical Technology (Medical+X) Program (『跨界整合前瞻醫療科技(醫療+X)計畫』) 2021~2023 and 2024-2025. He collaborates
with Dr. Lee, Associate Dean of TMU Shuang Ho Hospital, on “Organ on
Chip-New generation of drug screening system” and “Organ on LabChip-
Lung-on-chips” to win 2021 Future Tech Awards (與北醫雙和醫院李岡遠副院長合組研發團隊,合作藥物測試篩選應用之器官組織晶片,獲科技部 『2021
年未來科技獎』), National
Innovation Award (Taiwan Healthcare) 2021 (肺癌組織器官晶片獲『第十八屆國家新創獎-學研新創獎』) , 2022/2023 National Innovation Award (Taiwan Healthcare) for Excelsior Award (2022/2023國家新創精進獎-生技製藥與精準醫療類) on “Organ-on-a-chip- Array Platform for 3D
Cell Culture and Drug Testing Screening”, respectively. He received 『The 1st place Award 2021』for 2021 Program Review of MOST Automation Engineering Program (The 1st
place Award for our funded project: TIIC auto-sorting and culturing miniaturized
systems combining image AI-machine -learning recognition/counting for personal
cancer-immunotherapy applications) (科技部工程司自動化學門2021年計畫成果競賽 -特優). He collaborates with Dr. Lee at Taipei Medical University on
“Organ on chip: a New Drug Screening Platform as an Alternative for
Patients” receiving 2021 “Grass Roots” Award from
Boehringer Ingelheim “Grass Roots” Support Program in Taiwan- one of 6 awarded Teams selected from 169
competing teams (獲百靈佳殷格翰「生醫新創獨角獸Grass
Roots支持計畫」, 169個團隊中六個獲獎團隊之一,與北醫李岡遠醫師共組之研發新創創業團隊。) (short video) (link 1) (link 2)(link 3). He co-founds Pythia Biotech Ltd. with the focus on orang-on-chip
for personalized/ precision medicine
applications. Pythia Biotech Ltd. is
among Top12
Medical Start-ups 2022, which are selected out of over 250 companies and
teams worldwide, at MEDICA 2022, Munich/Düsseldorf, Germany 14-17 November
2022. He received research funds of 2024 Technology Development Programs for
Academia from Ministry of Economic Affairs, R.O.C. This project aims at
“Commercialization of Organ/Tumor on Chip re-constructing
micro-environment in vitro for disease model and drugs tests.” (獲經濟部112年度「科研成果價值創造計畫」(學界科專),主攻「替身醫療: 癌症藥篩與體外毒性測試應用之器官微環境晶片之商品化計畫」) In 2025, he gets awarded of 2024 Outstanding Research Award from National Science and
Technology Council (NSTC) (113年度國科會傑出研究獎),
