KUALA LUMPUR, April 9 (Bernama) -- CorDx, a biotechnology company that is transforming the global diagnostics industry, has long been led by Aiiso Yufeng Li (Jeff), who has made a significant impact in both the business and philanthropic sectors.
Recently, the UC San Diego Jacobs School of Engineering celebrated the renaming of its chemical and nano engineering department to the Aiiso Yufeng Li Family Department of Chemical and Nano Engineering.
This milestone was made possible by the generous contributions of Li, his wife Doreen Guo, and the broader CorDx family, according to a statement.
The department's new name honours the philanthropic efforts of Li, who in 2024 donated US$21 million to UC San Diego. These gifts continue to fuel innovation and mentorship at the intersection of chemical and nano engineering. (US$1=RM4.48)
His generosity has been a driving force in supporting research and education, with additional contributions funding initiatives such as the Sustainable Power and Energy Center (SPEC) and the Institute for the Global Entrepreneur (IGE).
In his remarks, Li emphasised that real progress comes from investing in the next generation of innovators. He believes that shaping the future of technology begins with empowering talented students and researchers.
His commitment to advancing technology aligns with his work at CorDx, where he leads the development of affordable, high-quality diagnostic products for healthcare providers and patients worldwide.
Since its founding in 2006, CorDx has become a leader in manufacturing point-of-care and over-the-counter diagnostic tests across various categories, including infectious disease and reproductive health.
The company’s vertically integrated supply chain enables it to deliver reliable, affordable products, benefitting both distributors and patients. CorDx's team is driven by a shared commitment to innovation and care for the people who rely on their products.
