We are thrilled to share that Professor Yeung Wai-ho Raymond, Choh-Ming Li Professor of Information Engineering, and Co-Director of the Institute of Network Coding at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), had been invited to attend the 2024 NAI Fellows Induction Ceremony. The ceremony was held at Raleigh, North Carolina on 18 June, 2024, which is a momentous event of the National Academy of Inventors (NAI).

Professor Yeung has been elected NAI Fellow for his consistent, profound contributions to the field of information theory and network coding in 2022 December, and was inducted at this year’s NAI Fellows Induction Ceremony.  

The NAI Fellows Programme highlights academic inventors who have demonstrated a spirit of innovation in creating or facilitating outstanding inventions that have made a tangible impact on the quality of life, economic development and welfare of society. NAI Fellow is the highest professional distinction awarded to academic inventors. An induction ceremony for newly elected NAI Fellows will be held at the Annual Conference of the National Academy of Inventors. At the ceremony, the new Fellows will receive their rosette, and medal along with their NAI lapel pin and member certificate.
