Dr. Chuen-Jinn Tsai is Lifetime Chair Professor of the Institute of Environmental Engineering, National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (NYCU), Taiwan. He graduated from National Taiwan University and received Ph. D. in 1990 in the Particle Technology Laboratory (PTL), Mechanical Engineering Department, University of Minnesota. In the last 33 years (by 2023) since he joined NYCU, he has applied aerosol technology successfully in advancing air pollution sampling, monitoring and control technologies. He won distinguished research awards from Taiwan Ministry of Science and Technology (formerly National Science Council) three times and was promoted as NYCU Lifetime Chair Professor. Professor Chuen-Jinn is one of the key founding members of TAAR (Taiwan Association for Aerosol Research in Taiwan), and AARA (Asian Aerosol Research Assembly) for which he had served as the Presidents. He has served as the Editor-in-Chief, Co-Editors-in-Chief and Editor for nearly 18 years for AAQR (Aerosol and Air Quality Research, http://www.aaqr.org/) since 2003.  He received the 2006 International Aerosol Fellow (IAF) award from the IARA (International Aerosol Research Assembly, www.iara.org), 2015 Asian Aerosol Fellow and 2012 Fellow of Taiwan Association for Aerosol Research (TAAR) to recognize his outstanding research, technical development, education and service contributions to aerosol science and technology. In 2018, Taiwan PM2.5 Control Association (PMCA, pmca.tw) was founded by him and colleagues to promote air environmental monitoring and control industry in Taiwan and help Taiwan and ASEAN Countries improve air quality for better health and welfare. He currently serves as the PMCA honorary president and had been the president for two terms (2020-2024).
