Abstract
Wesley L. Nyborg obtained his Ph.D. degree in physics at Pennsylvania State College in 1947. He has held faculty positions at Penn State, Brown University, and since 1960 has been at the University of Vermont where he is presently Emeritus Professor. Dr. Nyborgs entire career has been devoted to biophysical acoustics: low frequencies at first, but since the early 50s ultrasonic frequencies of biomedical interest. He has made significant contributions in many areas of ultrasound biophysics, especially in cavitation and other non-thermal mechanisms relevant to biological effects. He has also derived a number of important relationships that are widely used today in determining temperature elevation in clinical ultrasound examinations. He has been the role model and friend to many colleagues, and has received many awards.
