Dr. Lee is a Ministry of Education National Chair Professor, and
University Chair Professor of Biophysics at the National Central
University. He was educated at the National Taiwan University (BSc,
1963) and McGill University (PhD, 1969). He worked at the Canadian
1963) Chalk River Research Laboratories as a theoretical physicist
1963) from 1968 to 1993, when he was senior research officer and
director of the Center for Mathematical Sciences. In 1993 he returned
to Taiwan, first chairing the physics department of the National Chung
Hsing University from 1993 to 1995 then moving to the National Central
University in 1995, where he is professor with the Department of
Physics and, since 2006, founding head of the new the Graduate
Institute of Systems Biology and Bioinformatics. He is the recipient
of a number of academic awards and a Fellow of the Physical Society of
ROC. Prior to 1997 his research areas was theoretical and mathematical
physics. In 1997 he turned to theoretical and computational biology
and helped the new National Center for Theoretical Sciences establish
the ``Biology Inspired Theoretical Science'' (BITS) program, which
promotes cross-disciplinary research involving the natural and life
sciences. At NCU, he was the founding director of the Center for
Complex Systems in 1996, which in 2003 spawned the Graduate Institute
for Biophysics, the first of this field in Taiwan. In 2005 he led
successful drives to found the Graduate Institute of Systems Biology
and Bioinformatics, again the first of its kind in Taiwan, and the
Center for Biotechnology and Biomedical Engineering. His Computational
Biology Laboratory conducts cross-disciplinary research on genomics,
neural science, and systems biology.
