`0
`each year since 1956, Lockheed Martin and its predecessor, has sponsored
`an award for excellence in engineering teaching to reward one College of
`Engineering faculty member for exceptional teaching. This prestigious
`award is given to a faculty member dedicating time and energy in
`abundance to teaching undergraduate and graduate students. As a result,
`his or her work leaves a mark of excellence on the entire College of
`Engineering. Nominations for this award are made by The University of
`Texas at Austin engineering students and faculty. Final selection is made
`by a committee composed the five most recent faculty recipients of the
`award and the student presidents of the Student Engineering Council
`(SEC) and the Graduate Engineering Council (GEC).
`
`Vita for Dean P. Neikirk:
`
`Dean P. Neikirk was born in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, on October 31, 1957. He
`received the B.S. degree (1979) in physics from Oklahoma State University, and the MS.
`(1981) and Ph.D. (1984) degrees in applied physics from the California Institute of
`Technology. He joined the faculty of The University of Texas at Austin in 1984, and is
`currently a Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, holding
`the Cullen Trust for Higher Education Professorship in Engineering mo. 7). Dr. Neikirk
`developed the first monolithic, high resolution focal plane detector array for use at
`wavelengths between 0.1 mm and 1 mm, and in 1984 received the Marconi International
`Fellowship Young Scientist Award "for contributions to the development of millimeter
`wave integrated circuits especially in the area of detectors and imaging arrays." He has
`also been named a 1986 National Science Foundation Presidential Young Investigator.
`Dr. Neikirk's current research interests concentrate on the fabrication and modeling of
`electromagnetic and micromachined sensors and actuators. His work also includes
`projects involving integrated circuit processing and the high frequency properties of
`transmission lines. His work concentrates on the use of advanced fabrication techniques,
`including silicon micromachining, for new device and sensor development. Dr. Neikirk
`developed the teaching laboratory for semiconductor device fabrication at The University
`of Texas at Austin, and is an active member of The University of Texas at Austin
`Microelectronics Research Center. Recently Dr. Neikirk’s research project related to the
`
`October 5, 2012
`

`
`

`

`development of new chemical sensors (an “electronic taste” sensor) was selected for a
`commercialization venture between the University of Texas and LabNow, Inc. Dr.
`Neikirk has also served as the Graduate Advisor of the Department of Electrical and
`Computer Engineering at UT-Austin, as well as an Associate Chairman of the ECE
`Department, and as the Chair of the UT-Austin Faculty Council.

`
`Commercialization of Technology:
`
`Two companies have been founded based on technology developed by Dr. Neikirk’s
`research group. In both cases the technology was developed at The University of Texas at
`Austin and licensed to start-ups. As a result of Dr. Neikirk’s research, significant revenue
`and equity sharing from the companies to the University occurred. One company,
`LabNow, is currently actively developing new medical diagnostic systems.
`
`From a University of Texas news release:
`Firm commercializing University of Texas technology rounds up $14 million venture
`capital investment (October 1, 2004)
`
`AUSTIN, Texas—LabNow Inc. has received $14 million in first-round venture investment
`for its point-of-care diagnostic system from the Soros Group, Austin Ventures and other
`investors.
`
`The money will be used to develop the company ’s technology and to launch its initial
`product, CD4Now TM, a point-of-care diagnostic toolfor H1V/AIDS patients.
`
`The device, which is based on technology developed at The University of Texas at Austin,
`quickly and accurately analyzes complex fluids such as blood.
