Biography

Tee Chee Keong Benjamin is a Singaporean scientist. He helped to co-develop the electronic skin technology when he was a PhD student in Stanford University. In 2015, he was chosen as one of TR35 list (MIT Technology Review's global 35 Innovators Under 35) for his work on e-skin. The only Singaporean on the 2015 TR35 list, e-skins could potentially make prosthetic limbs as sensitive as human ones.

Career

Tee is currently a scientist at the Agency for Science, Technology and Research's Institute of Materials Research and Engineering (A*STAR's IMRE) and an adjunct assistant professor at the National University of Singapore's Department of Material Science and Engineering.
