Dr. Wen Ya Lee is a Professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology at the National Taipei University of Technology (Taipei Tech), where he leads a research group dedicated to pioneering the future of soft electronics. His academic and research career is marked by a clear and progressive evolution of focus, beginning with his Ph.D. from National Taiwan University, where he built his foundational expertise in polymer electronics. To broaden his international experience and collaboration, Dr. Lee joined Stanford University as a postdoctoral fellow, where he specialized in the emerging field of stretchable electronics. Upon returning to Taiwan and joining Taipei Tech, he first established his group's expertise by focusing on wearable electronics and memory devices. Building on this foundation, his research then advanced into the more complex domain of synaptic electronics and neuromorphic computing (2020-present). Currently, his team is forging the fundamental understanding in soft bioelectronics and neuromorphic devices, which is critical for pioneering advancements in artificial intelligence, personalized healthcare monitoring, and human-machine interfaces.
