July 12, 2007 — Jesse T. Yen has been named a recipient of a 2007 Wallace H. Coulter Foundation Early Career Award. The main goal of this award is to encourage young faculty to engage in translational biomedical research. Jesse will use his award to develop “Ultrasound Transducers for Near-Field 3-D Imaging”. This is a prestigious award, and is currently the only one of its kind from a private foundation in the Biomedical Engineering field since the Whitaker Foundation ceased its operations in 2006. Jesse's proposal was one of only 16 selected from a large number of submissions.
