About Yin

Dr. Yin How Wong is a Senior Lecturer I in the School of Medicine, Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences at Taylor's University, Malaysia. He earned his Bachelor of Science with Honours and Doctor of Philosophy from the University of Malaya, completing his PhD in 2016 with a thesis titled 'Protein stabilizing potential of simulated honey cocktails under accelerated protein denaturation conditions.' With 71 peer-reviewed publications, 808 citations, and over 13,800 reads on ResearchGate, Wong has established a strong research profile focused on advancing biomedical technologies and public health.

Wong's research specializations include protein biochemistry, enzymes, protein structure, nanomedicine, targeted drug delivery, cancer nanomedicine, nanoparticles drug delivery, 3D printing, and protein-ligand interactions. He has collaborated extensively with researchers from Curtin University's Discipline of Medical Radiation Science, Curtin Medical School, contributing to key publications such as 'Personalized Three-Dimensional Printed Models in Congenital Heart Disease' (Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2019), 'Quantitative and qualitative comparison of low- and high-cost 3D-printed heart models' (Quantitative Imaging in Medicine and Surgery, 2019), 'Patient-specific 3D printed model of biliary ducts with congenital cyst' (Quantitative Imaging in Medicine and Surgery, 2019), 'Development of patient-specific 3D-printed breast phantom using realistic breast tissue' (Quantitative Imaging in Medicine and Surgery, 2020), and 'Development of a 3D-Printed Chest Phantom with Simulation of Lung Nodules' (Applied Sciences, 2024). These works demonstrate his expertise in fabricating patient-specific phantoms to enhance accuracy in medical imaging for congenital anomalies, cardiovascular conditions, and oncology. Recent endeavors extend to theragnostics, including 'Development and physicochemical characterisation of a biodegradable Ho-166-polycaprolactone rod formulation for targeted theragnostic radiation therapy of liver tumours' (2025) and 'In vitro antifungal and oxidative stress evaluation of silver nanoparticles stabilised with gum arabic protein on Candida glabrata strains' (2025). Additionally, Wong addresses public health challenges through studies on psychological well-being among university students, e-cigarette cessation strategies, social media addiction, and community-based dengue prevention via the B.O.L.E.H. initiative in Kuala Lumpur. His multifaceted contributions influence medical education, diagnostic imaging, oncology treatments, infectious disease management, and preventive healthcare.
