We Wish to Share That with You By
T HE DEPARTMENT OF BIOENGINEERING The UCSD Bioengineering Program was initiated in 1966 by Drs. Y.C. Fung, Marcos Intaglietta, and Benjamin Zweifach within the Department of Aeronautical Mechanics and Engineering Science. In August 1994 the UC Office of the President approved our request to form a Department of Bioengineering, the first in the UC System. It is wonderful that our Department is celebrating the tenth anniversary of its establishment. While an age of 10 years is young, we had a gestation period of 28 years, which are covered in this book together with the last 10 years. At this momentous occasion, I wish to express my sincere thanks to all my colleagues: faculty, research scientists, staff and students, for their wonderful work as a team in making the Department such a marvelous place to be, both scientifically and interpersonally. On behalf of the Department, I also wish to take this opportunity to thank the generous support and strong encouragement by our friends everywhere in the country and our administration at UCSD and the UC system. Our friends and colleagues are extremely precious, much more than the diamond on the cover of this book*, which is a symbol that represents the tenth anniversary. Sincerely, Shu Chien Chair, Department of Bioengineering NNIVERSARY A * The preparations for this book and the celebration on August 14, 2004, have been made TH possible by the outstanding work by the following members of UCSD central administration, Jacobs School External Relations Office, and Department of Bioengineering (listed alphabetically): 10 Kelly Briggs, Suzie Dandos, Chandra Ewell. Jennifer Griffin, Denine Hagen, Irene Jacobo, Paul Laperruque, Beth Maples, Carolyn Post-Ladd, Jeff Sanchez, and Loretta Smith.

Our University Innovation Is Central to Who We Are and What We Do at the University of California, San Diego
Our University Innovation is central to who we are and what we do at the University of California, San Diego. Here, students learn that knowledge isn’t just acquired in the classroom—life is their laboratory. UC San Diego is an academic powerhouse and economic engine, recognized as one of the top 10 public universities by U.S. News & World Report and ranked number one in the nation for public service by the Washington Monthly. Our location is unparalleled, our impact unmistakable. UC San Diego shapes minds, changes lives, launches industries and builds the future … one student, one discovery and one achievement at a time. Points of Distinction Scripps Institution of Oceanography climate scientist Charles David Keeling was the first to confirm the buildup of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. His precise measurements, which he began calculating in 1958, produced a data set now known widely as the “Keeling Curve,” a benchmark of global warming studies. The Jacobs School of Engineering is home to the world’s first full-scale outdoor shake table, designed to create realistic simulations of the most devastating earthquakes on record to advance seismic safety. UC San Diego is unique among other UC campuses—our university offers undergraduates the “small college” concept patterned after those at Cambridge and Oxford. Each of the six undergraduate colleges has its own residence halls, student services, traditions and even graduation ceremonies. While the undergraduates remain part of one university, they also develop a sense of identity within the smaller family of their chosen college. In 1986 UC San Diego established the first Cognitive Science Department in the world, which has become one of the leading centers of this field.

Personal Statement My research is focused on cell engineering, biomaterials and tissue engineering. In the past two decades, my laboratory has made significant contribution to this area. We have engineered biomaterials and stem cells for the regeneration of tissues such as nerve, muscle, blood vessel and spinal cord. Our work also shed light on how biophysical factors regulate stem cell differentiation and cell reprogramming. We have also developed various platforms for immunoengineering applications. I have trained more than 30 Ph.D. students and over 10 postdoctoral fellows, and have collaborated extensively with researchers and clinician scientists on interdisciplinary cutting-edge research. The current application builds logically on my prior work on drug delivery for tissue engineering. I have the expertise, leadership, training, and motivation necessary to successfully carry out the proposed research project. B.
