This has wide application in understanding the causes and early detection of diseases and he development of treatments. He uses photonics to invent fluorescent molecules which can be used in areas diverse as medical diagnosis, anti-counterfeiting inks, and optical safety systems. In 2015 Jin was appointed Founding Director of the Initiative for Biomedical Materials and Devices (IBMD) at the University of Technology Sydney. He was awarded the Malcolm McIntosh Prize for Physical Scientist of the Year in 2017 for his contribution to our understanding of metabolism and obesity 2002 2002 Education - Bachelor of Science (BSc), Liaoning Normal University, China 2006 2006 Award - Postgraduate Award and Innovation Award, Macquarie University 2007 2007 Education - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), Macquarie University 2007 2007 Award - Scholar Award, International Society for Analytical Cytology 2010 2010 Award - Australian Research Council Australian Postdoctoral Fellow and International Collaboration Award 2010 2010 Award - Early Career Researcher Award, Macquarie University 2012 2017 Education - Australian Research Council Future Fellow 2013 Career position - Chief Investigator, ARC Centre of Excellence for Nanoscale Bio Photonics 2013 2013 Award - Excellence in Research Award, Macquarie University 2014 2014 Career position - Visiting Professor, National Natural Science Foundation of China, Peking University 2015 Career position - Founding Director, Initiative for Biomedical Materials & Devices (IBMD), University of Technology Sydney 2015 2015 Award - Eureka Prize for Excellence in Interdisciplinary Scientific Research, Australian Museum 2016 2021 Career position - Director, ARC Industry Transformation Research Hub for Integrated Device for End-user Analysis at Low-levels (ARC IDEAL Research Hub) 2017 2017 Award - John Booker Medal in Engineering Science, Australian Academy of Science 2017 2017 Award - Malcolm McIntosh Prize for Physical Scientist of the Year, Commonwealth of Australia 2022 2022 Award - Fellow, Australian Academy of Technological Sciences and Engineering (FTSE) University of Technology Sydney (1988 - )
