Yael Maguire, Co-Founder: Yael Maguire is a co-founder and CTO of ThingMagic, Inc., co-developing this new technology to let computers and machines "see" the world in a completely new way, and which now finds uses in Ford Trucks and Lexmark printers. Maguire completed his PhD at the MIT Media Laboratory in the area of near-field electromagnetic measurement through his invention of a new type of sensor for molecular detection using NMR. This innovation has many promising applications in biology and chemistry. Maguire also holds a master's in Media Arts and Sciences from MIT for his work towards scaling NMR quantum computing to table-top systems, and an undergraduate degree from Queen's University, Canada in Engineering Physics. While still a graduate student, he co-founded Design that Matters (DtM), a course at MIT that was designed to bring together engineering students to work on technical challenges posed by NGOs and governments in order to improve the quality of life for people in underserved communities around the world. The DtM course has been adopted by other educational institutions around the world, such as The Sristhi School of Design, and its spirit flourishes in a NPO of the same name. Maguire's contributions have been presented in numerous publications, such as Science and Proceedings of the National Academy of the Sciences, and his work has been featured in numerous press including the Boston Globe and Wired Magazine. He has won numerous awards, most recently being recognized with ThingMagic as a 2009 Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum, a MassHighTech All-Star, and one of Technology Review's "Top 35 innovators in the world under 35".
