pursue research in Bioengineering by acknowledging recipients early in
their career for the quality of their research and their commitment to the
field of Bioengineering. The award is named in honor of Yuan Cheng Bertram
Fung, Ph.D., Professor of Bioengineering at the University of California,
San Diego. Professor Fung is considered by many to be the father of modern
bioengineering. Professor Fung is a long-standing member of ASME, and a
past recipient of the ASME H.R. Lissner Award for his outstanding
achievements in the field of Bioengineering.
