Zengliang Yu( Z.L Yu, Yu Zengliang), Male, born in 1944. He re-ceived the B. S. degree from radio department of Hefei Industrial University, China, in 1968. From 1968 to 1975, he worked on micro-wave devices for the Institute of Electronics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing. Since 1976, he has been with the Institute of Pla-sma Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Hefei, to research on neutral particle beam injection. From 1980 to 1982, he was with the Technology Division for heating plasma with neutral particle beam-s in the Max Plank Institute of Plasma Physics, Germany. In 1986, he discovered the bio-effect induced in rice by ion implantation, and proposed that a combination of energy absorption, mass deposition, and charge exchange of energetic ions in the organ resulted in bio-effects. Since then, the application of ion beams in the life sciences has opened new multidisciplinary areas of study in the field of life scienc-es. In 1991, he founded the Ion Beam Bioengineering Laboratory at the Institute of Plasma Physics, and has been its Director and Professor in biophysics. This Labor-atory has been become a key laboratory of Chinese Academy of Sciences and Anh-ui province.
Main interest is in multidiscipline of Physics and Biology, especially in the inter-action between low-energy ions and the organ, such as the role of low-energy ions in the origin and evolution of life and in the formation of the interplanetary molecu-les, and ion beam bioengineering. As a project head, Prof. Yu has taken on more than ten projects from state, including key and major grants from National Natural Science Foundation of China, "7.5" to "10.5"projects from key national scientific and technology plan, 863 plan, key grants from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and industrial companies. Prof. Yu has wide academic cooperation with institutes and universities both home and abroad. Prof. Yu has trained more than 100 students for Ph. D. and M. S., several of them have become famous young scientists and managers. Currently, there are 20 students for Ph.D. and 10 students for M.S. by Prof. Yu. Students for the new areas of the multidiscipline of Physics and Biology are welcome.
