Meng-Jiy Wang received the B.S. degree in chemical engineering from National Taiwan University, Taipei, Taiwan, in 1993, the M.S. degree in bioengineering from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, USA, in 1995, and the Ph.D. degree from the Univeristé du Maine, Le Mans, France, in 2002

She started her career at Taiwan Tech, Taipei, since 2006 after serving four years as a Post-Doctoral Researcher at the Queen Mary University of London, London, U.K. She is currently the Chairperson of the Department of Chemical Engineering at Taiwan Tech. Her research interests include plasma technology, surface modification and characterizations, and biosensors.

Our laboratory focuses on applying plasma technology on biomaterials, biosensing and heavy metal detection. As the semiconductor requires more than 70 % of plasma technology, we train undergraduate and graduate students with vacuum and atmospheric pressure plasma technology upon solving problems in different research fields and applications. For example, we applied plasma polymerization method to prepare thin films that provide synergetic effects of anticorrosion and excellent biocompatibilty toward bone tissue engineering. Currently, we aim to prepare artificial tissues by combining 3D bioprinting and stem cell, and photolithography techniques by preparing specifically designed 3D printable patterned surfaces to induce cell differentiation. Meanwhile, we are excellent in surface characterizations using ESCA, XRD, SEM, FTIR and related methods.
