Xian Jun Loh (simplified Chinese: 罗贤俊; traditional Chinese: 羅賢俊; pinyin: Lúo Xiánjùn; born 1981) is a Singaporean polymer chemist who works in the inter-disciplinary field of biomaterials. He is the Executive Director of the Institute of Materials Research and Engineering of the Agency for Science, Technology and Research and a professor at the Nanyang Technological University.[1][2][3] He is currently the President of the Singapore National Institute of Chemistry.[4]

Professor Loh Xian Jun was elected a Fellow of Fitzwilliam College, University of Cambridge, working on smart biomaterials that identify and target cancer cells.[5] He is also credited with the invention of a customisable, fabric-like power source for wearable electronics.[6] He has also worked with a major Japanese company, LION Corporation, for the development of new anti-microbial compounds for detergents.[7]

During the COVID pandemic, he co-invented a smart mask that allows for the remote monitoring of vital signs of patients.[8][9]

Education

Loh graduated with a bachelor's in applied sciences in 2006 and a PhD in 2009 from National University of Singapore.[10] In 2011 he was elected a fellow of Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge.[11]
