Tony Jun Huang is the William Bevan Professor of Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science at Duke University. He is an expert in the fields of acoustofluidics, optofluidics, and micro/nano systems for biomedical diagnostics and therapeutics. [1][2] [3][4] [5] [6] [7] [8][9] [10] He is widely recognized for his breakthroughs in developing acoustic tweezer technologies to trap and manipulate individual cells [11] [12] [13] and to control microorganisms. [14] [15] [16] [17] [18]

Prior to joining Duke, he was the Huck Distinguished Chair in Bioengineering Science and Mechanics at Penn State.[19] He received his Ph.D. degree in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering from the UCLA, and earned undergraduate and master's degrees at Xi'an Jiaotong University.

He has authored/co-authored over 190 peer-reviewed journal publications in these fields.[20] His journal articles have been cited more than 13,000 times, as documented at Google Scholar (h-index: 62). He also has 20 patents and invention disclosures. He was elected a fellow of the following five professional societies: the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE),[21] the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME),[22] the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE),[23][24] the Institute of Physics (IOP),[25] and the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC). Huang’s research has gained international recognition through numerous prestigious awards and honors including a 2010 National Institutes of Health (NIH) Director’s New Innovator Award, a 2011 Penn State Engineering Alumni Society Outstanding Research Award, 2011&2013&2016 JALA Top Ten Breakthroughs of the Year Award, a 2012 Outstanding Young Manufacturing Engineer Award from the Society for Manufacturing Engineering, a 2013 Faculty Scholar Medal from The Pennsylvania State University, a 2013 American Asthma Foundation (AAF) Scholar Award, the 2014 IEEE Sensors Council Technical Achievement Award from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and the 2017 Analytical Chemistry Young Innovator Award from the American Chemical Society (ACS).[26][27]
