Jentaie Shiea
Jentaie Shiea received his bachelor degree in Chemistry from National Chung-Hsing University, Taiwan in 1981. He received M.S. (1988) and Ph.D. (1991) degrees from Montana State University. His thesis studies focus on Organic Geochemistry and Analytical/Physical Chemistry. After post-doctoral fellowship at Pennsylvania State University (Department of Material Science), he joined National Sun Yat-Sen University (NSYSU, Kaohsiung, Taiwan) faculty. He is now a professor of Department of Chemistry (Analytical Division) at NSYSU and also the Deputy Dean of College of Science. He authored or co-authored more than 200 scientific publications and presentations at internationally scientific meetings. In the last decade, he has devoted himself to promoting mass spectrometric research in Taiwan and Asia. Currently, he is the president of Taiwan Society for Mass Spectrometry (TSMS) and the executive board member and the representative ofRegion B (Asia and Oceania) of the International Mass Spectrometry Foundation (IMSF). His research interests have long involved in biological and organic mass spectrometry, instrumentation, separation, proteomics, and polymer science. Current research work in his laboratory focuses on four main aspects: (1) developing ionization techniques for ambient mass spectrometry; (2) interfacing mass spectrometry with nano-HPLC, GC, CE, and TLC; (3) searching disease biomarkers in the biological fluids; and (4) using mass spectrometry as a tool to rapidly diagnose diseases. Professor Shiea received The Graduate Achievement Award for Outstanding Performance for his Master's Thesis of Montana State University in 1988. So far he has received several awards from National Science Council, Taiwan and NSYSU for his excellent research in mass spectrometry. He has also been honored by NSYSU with itsAwards for Teaching Excellence of College of Science (2001) and Excellent Invention (2007). He is also the board member of several government and university committees in controlled drugs, public health and engineering and patent evaluation.
