UC San Diego’s Y.C. Fung, the lifesaving ‘father of biomechanics’, dies at 100 – The San Diego Union-Tribune

UC San Diego researcher Y.C. Bert Fung, who blended biology, medicine and engineering into a field that has given rise to everything from heart valves to wireless health monitors to automobile crash bags, died on Dec. 15, the university said. He was 100.

Fung, the so-called father of biomechanics, passed away of natural causes at UCSDs Jacobs Medical Center, his family said.

Scholars described him as a seminal figure in 20th century science who got his contemporaries to think of human health in more precise and practical ways by combining medicine with the principles and rigors of engineering and biology bioengineering, for short.

When you went to the doctor 50 years ago the treatment usually involved drugs because scientists mainly thought of the human body in terms of chemistry, said Shu Chien, a UCSD bioengineer who was recruited by Fung.

But we breathe, which is mechanical. Our heart pumps blood, which is mechanical. So is our digestive system. You also need to think about biology and engineering.

Fung got scientists to do it, especially as it applies to the mechanics of blood flow, leading others to invent an array of lifesaving valves and cardiac assist devices.

It happened against all odds, said Geert Schmid-Schonbein, a UCSD bioengineer. He joined the faculty in 1966, before bioengineering had become an academic discipline on university campuses. The textbooks in the field had yet to be written. The courses had yet to be created.

People would say to him, Youre not a biologist. And youre not an engineer. What are you?

Fung was actually well-grounded in both of those fields, and he would soon write the textbooks and create the courses that would help establish bioengineering as an important discipline.

His collective contributions were considered to be so important he was awarded the National Medal of Science in 2000. Fung was the first bioengineer to earn that honor.

Scholars say Fung also succeeded because he was a remarkably resilient person a characteristic that appears to have developed during a difficult childhood in China.

Yuan-Cheng Fung was born on September 15, 1919 in Changzhou, a part of Jiangsu Province. His father was an educator and a respected painter, and his mother was a housewife. Y.C. Fung had six siblings.

In the fall of 1931, Japan invaded Manchuria, setting off armed conflict. That led to mandatory military training in local schools, a harrowing disruption that Fung survived.

He went on to earn a bachelors and a masters degree from National Central University. Then, in 1946, he traveled to the US and enrolled at Caltech, where he excelled in aeronautics.

That might have been his lifes work if his mother had not develop glaucoma.

Historians say he devoted all of his energy to helping her and was frustrated to learn that comparatively little was known about the physical and mechanical forces that affect living tissue.

I turned to bioengineering, with a focus on people, because I felt that although we know so much about airplanes, we dont know much about ourselves, Fung said during a talk he gave in 2007, campus officials say.

Fung ended up leaving Caltech for UCSD, partly because it has a medical school, and partly because it was a new university where people could explore cutting edge ideas with a lot of campus support.

He published one landmark paper after another, helping define bioengineering, Chien said.

Fung also became known as an extraordinary teacher.

I was an undergraduate in chemical engineering who took a class from him because I needed a technical elective, said Ghassan Kassab, president of the California Medical Innovations Institute in Sorrento Valley.

Without any notes in hand, he went to the chalk board and starting writing equations about how blood flows through arteries and how the heart contracts. And he did it in a poetic way. I remember being mesmerized. I soon changed my major to bioengineering.

Kassab and Chien remember something else distinguishing about Fung his laugh.

You could hear it halfway across campus, Kassab said. It came from his heart. He so enjoyed science and teaching.

That love didnt come at the expense of being a relaxed, happy, somewhat poetic soul.

He would always tell us to Work hard, and take it easy, said Conrad Fung, his son. Id tell him, Thats easy for you to say. He was able to be relaxed because of his great talent in science.

Fung is survived by his son Conrad, and Conrads two sons, Anthony and Michael, and by his daughter Brenda Fung and her son, Nicholas Manos, and Manos wife, Claire Bazley.

In the Spotlight: Using engineering to improve patients’ lives – Scope

Meet Ross Venook, PhD, assistant director of engineering at the Stanford Byers Center for Biodesign and a lecturer in bioengineering. An electrical engineer by training, his work has focused on building and applying new types of MRI hardware, as well as MRI safety for patients with implanted medical devices. I talked to him about his work in and out of Stanford and the power of engineering to solve medical problems:

How long have you been at Stanford?

I was at Stanford as an undergraduate and continued straight through for my masters and PhD, all in electrical engineering. After that, I left to become a research and development engineer at Boston Scientific, a large medical device manufacturing company. I still work one day a week in the neuromodulation division there, doing MRI safety-related projects.

I also develop and lead courses for undergraduate and graduate students, and run the engineering parts of the Biodesign program, including our medtech-focused makerspace.

What are some projects you've worked on?

As a graduate student, I worked on new types of MRI hardware, including a lower-cost "prepolarized" MRI system. During my Biodesign fellowship, we worked on areas ranging from better cardiac ablation lesions to a way to address stress urinary incontinence without causing chronic tissue effects.

At Boston Scientific, I have helped to test and ensure safety under MRI for products ranging from surgical staples to pacemakers to spinal cord stimulators, and most recently, deep brain stimulators. I am also advising a company that started out of a Biodesign class that now has a product in the neonatal space -- a mechanism to better hold umbilical catheters in place in premature babies.

Why did you go into science and medicine?

In elementary school, I had the rare opportunity to have a very rich science education that was focused on inquiry, which really fostered my interest in science as a whole. Surprisingly, I actually didn't know what an engineer was or what they did until late into high school. When I did find out, I fell in love because it was an application of science.

How have your career goals changed over time?

When I was an undergrad, I considered pursuing medicine as a career. When I decided to go to graduate school in engineering instead, I opted to study medical imaging and work on technologies I felt could have clinical impact.

The Stanford Biodesign program really transformed my perspective on what could be possible for my career. I got to spend time with clinicians in the hospital and in operating rooms. I learned a lot about how medicine works, and the Biodesign needs-first approach really resonated with me: understanding the clinical challenge before aiming bioengineering toward what was really needed from a patient perspective.

I now enjoy the opportunity to help students learn how to design and build their own projects with real-world medical applications.

What is the biggest challenge in the health technology field?

There's more pressure on innovators to deliver new therapies that work better and also are able to pay for themselves from day one. That's hard. That creates challenges in the pipeline for people trying to do innovative medical work and get funding for early-stage ideas. I think the move toward value-based health care is important, but that doesn't mean that it's easy.

What's your life like outside of work?

My wife and I live in Millbrae with our two boys. She works at Genentech on cancer therapeutics, and loves the impact of the work she does. Our sons are 8 and 10, so days are filled with a lot of baseball, soccer, or basketball these days. I coach their teams a little bit, and working with younger kids is fun.

How do you unwind?

I love to spend time outdoors, whether it's hiking or biking, playing sports or just walking to the Caltrain on my commute.

What was the best trip you've taken recently?

One of my most recent fun trips was with our family to Zion National Park. We camped and hiked with the families of two of my closest friends from grad school. We came from different spots in the U.S. to meet in Zion and enjoy the outdoors together with our kids, and I hope we can figure out how to have another national park adventure soon.

Invisible Ink Could Reveal whether Kids Have Been Vaccinated – Scientific American

Keeping track of vaccinations remains a major challenge in the developing world, and even in many developed countries, paperwork gets lost, and parents forget whether their child is up to date. Now a group of Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers has developed a novel way to address this problem: embedding the record directly into the skin.

Along with the vaccine, a child would be injected with a bit of dye that is invisible to the naked eye but easily seen with a special cell-phone filter, combined with an app that shines near-infrared light onto the skin. The dye would be expected to last up to five years, according to tests on pig and rat skin and human skin in a dish.

The systemwhich has not yet been tested in childrenwould provide quick and easy access to vaccination history, avoid the risk of clerical errors, and add little to the cost or risk of the procedure, according to the study, published Wednesday in Science Translational Medicine.

Especially in developing countries where medical records may not be as complete or as accessible, there can be value in having medical information directly associated with a person, says Mark Prausnitz, a bioengineering professor at the Georgia Institute of Technology, who was not involved in the new study. Such a system of recording medical information must be extremely discreet and acceptable to the person whose health information is being recorded and his or her family, he says. This, I think, is a pretty interesting way to accomplish those goals.

The research, conducted by M.I.T. bioengineers Robert Langer and Ana Jaklenec and their colleagues, uses a patch of tiny needles called microneedles to provide an effective vaccination without a teeth-clenching jab. Microneedles are embedded in a Band-Aid-like device that is placed on the skin; a skilled nurse or technician is not required. Vaccines delivered with microneedles also may not need to be refrigerated, reducing both the cost and difficulty of delivery, Langer and Jaklenec say.

Delivering the dye required the researchers to find something that was safe and would last long enough to be useful. Thats really the biggest challenge that we overcame in the project, Jaklenec says, adding that the team tested a number of off-the-shelf dyes that could be used in the body but could not find any that endured when exposed to sunlight. The team ended up using a technology called quantum dots, tiny semiconducting crystals that reflect light and were originally developed to label cells during research. The dye has been shown to be safe in humans.

The approach raises some privacy concerns, says Prausnitz, who helped invent microneedle technology and directs Georgia Techs Center for Drug Design, Development and Delivery. There may be other concerns that patients have about being tattooed, carrying around personal medical information on their bodies or other aspects of this unfamiliar approach to storing medical records, he says. Different people and different cultures will probably feel differently about having an invisible medical tattoo.

When people were still getting vaccinated for smallpox, which has since been eradicated worldwide, they got a visible scar on their arm from the shot that made it easy to identify who had been vaccinated and who had not, Jaklenec says. But obviously, we didnt want to give people a scar, she says, noting that her team was looking for an identifier that would be invisible to the naked eye. The researchers also wanted to avoid technologies that would raise even more privacy concerns, such as iris scans and databases with names and identifiable data, she says.

The work was funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and came about because of a direct request from Microsoft founder and philanthropist Bill Gates himself, who has been supporting efforts to wipe out diseases such as polio and measles across the world, Jaklenec says. If we dont have good data, its really difficult to eradicate disease, she says.

The researchers hope to add more detailed information to the dots, such as the date of vaccination. Along with them, the team eventually wants to inject sensors that could also potentially be used to track aspects of health such as insulin levels in diabetics, Jaklenec says.

This approach is likely to be one of many trying to solve the problem of storing individuals medical information, says Ruchit Nagar, a fourth-year student at Harvard Medical School, who also was not involved in the new study. He runs a company, called Khushi Baby, that is also trying to create a system for tracking such information, including vaccination history, in the developing world.

Working in the northern Indian state of Rajasthan, Nagar and his team have devised a necklace, resembling one worn locally, which compresses, encrypts and password protects medical information. The necklace uses the same technology as radio-frequency identification (RFID) chipssuch as those employed in retail clothing or athletes race bibsand provides health care workers access to a mothers pregnancy history, her childs growth chart and vaccination history, and suggestions on what vaccinations and other treatments may be needed, he says. But Nagar acknowledges the possible concerns all such technology poses. Messaging and cultural appropriateness need to be considered, he says.

PNNL-WSU research has potential for high impact on crop production and yields – WSU News

Elias Zegeye uses an LTQ Mass Spectrometer at PNNL in Aaron Wrights laboratory.

By Karen Hunt, Office of Research

Elias Zegeye, a chemical engineering PhD student in the joint Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL)-Washington State University (WSU) Distinguished Graduate Research Program (DGRP), has a vision for research that could make a difference.

Zegeyes research focuses on how soil nutritional and physical environments shape soil microbiomes the interactive microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi that are associated with soil and plants. He is working on developing predictive tools that could assist in better understanding the ecological functions of soil microbials under varying conditions.

The research has the potential to be very useful for farmers in addressing soil management and improving crop production and yields now and in the decades ahead. The importance of Zegeyes research was recently highlighted by the Department of Energy and featured online by the American Society of Microbiology. The predictive model will reduce complexity in studying the soil microbes and assist in better understanding the ecological mechanisms and functions that impact soil health, sustainability, and yield potential.

Zegeye works with and is advised by Aaron Wright, a scientist based at PNNL who helps to guide, mentor, and share research expertise with Zegeye. Wright is also anadjunct research professor in the Gene and Linda Voiland School of Chemical Engineering and Bioengineering.

WSU-PNNL joint-appointees are distinguished scientists in their expertise and devote extensive time and attention on the progress of students research, says Zegeye. Moreover, the WSU-PNNL joint-appointee helps to maximize the potential, knowledge and experience of students by providing independent research for the student. Additionally, they help students to collaborate and get mentorship from other senior scientists at PNNL, which is important for the student to broaden their research and project understanding from different scientific viewpoints.

The DGRP recently announced its call for applications for its fourth student cohort. DGRP students complete their coursework and preliminary exam at a WSU campus. After this point, students transfer to PNNLs Tri-Cities campus. The application process is undertaken by interested co-advisors at WSU and PNNL who submit a joint-DGRP application online. The priority deadline for DGRP applications is January 10, 2020.
