# Daojing Wang

> Daojing Wang is the founder, president, and CEO of Newomics, a Berkeley biotech building chip-based mass spectrometry tools for precision medicine. A Princeton-trained chemist who spent 11 years as a principal investigator at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, he co-invented the M3 emitter and multinozzle emitter array (MEA) - a silicon shower-head that makes mass spectrometers far more sensitive. He spun the technology out of the national lab in 2013 and has since shipped well over 100 systems to labs worldwide.

- **Role:** Founder, President & CEO at Newomics, Inc.
- **Organizations:** Newomics, Inc., Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (former)
- **Nationality:** United States
- **Education:** B.S. in Chemistry, University of Science and Technology of China, Ph.D. in Chemistry, Princeton University, Postdoctoral Researcher, University of California, Berkeley
- **Known for:** Co-inventor of the M3 emitter, up to 10x (and for some analytes up to 100x) more sensitive than conventional electrospray emitters, Co-invented the multinozzle emitter array (MEA) silicon chip, packaging up to 96 emitters on one chip, Spun Newomics out of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and grew it to 100+ systems shipped
