Ohio University Distinguished Professor of Biochemistry Tadeusz Malinski has been named a fellow of the National Academy of Inventors, highest professional distinction accorded solely to academic inventors.

“Dr. Malinski’s research has far-reaching implications in the nanomedical field, a highly important field that contributes to the well-being of a broad sector of society,” Ohio University President M. Duane Nellis said. “I am pleased that Dr. Malinski has earned this recognition from the National Academy of Inventors.”

Dr. Malinski, the Marvin & Ann Dilley White Chair and Distinguished Professor of biochemistry in the College of Arts and Sciences, has been nationally and internationally recognized as a pioneer in the field of nanomedicine. He has developed new technologies and methods for the early diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. He was the first in the world to measure nitric oxide – the “molecule of life” – in a single biological cell by employing a self-designed sensor with a diameter 700 times smaller than a single strand of hair.
