                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, September 15, 2011

  Ms. ESHOO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Dr. C.J. Huang who was 
awarded the Dean's Medal on Saturday, September 10, 2011, by Dean 
Philip Pizzo of the Stanford University School of Medicine. Dr. Huang 
called the event the 'happiest day of his life' and he spoke eloquently 
about his philosophy and that of generations in his family of giving 
and the privilege of philanthropy. Dr. Huang was described in the event 
program as follows:
  ``Dr. Chang Jen Huang was born in 1916 in Liu Yang City, in Hunan 
Province, China. He received a Master's degree in engineering from 
University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, and is a special member of the 
Stanford Research Institute. Dr. Huang has established a number of 
graduate scholarship funds and fellowships at Stanford supporting 
surgical oncology, cardiovascular research, and the exchange of medical 
education and research between China and the United States.
  Dr. Huang is a passionate supporter of Dr. Sam So, Lui Hac Minh 
Professor in the School of Medicine and Director of the Asian Liver 
Center at Stanford University. Dr. Huang is the honorary founder of the 
Asian Liver Center, established in 1996, to address the 
disproportionately high prevalence of Hepatitis B and liver cancer in 
the Asian and Pacific Islander populations) with the ultimate goal of 
eradicating Hepatitis B worldwide.
  A dedicated philanthropist in many areas related to education and 
global health, Dr. Huang has most recently given a gift to establish 
the C.J. Huang Building at Stanford University. When constructed, this 
building will be the future home of the Asian Liver Center and other 
medical school programs.''
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in honoring a great 
philanthropist, one whose life's work has been to promote science and 
education. Dr. Huang's support of the Asian Liver Center will help 
eradicate this disease and his gifts to Stanford will ensure that 
future generations will enjoy a high quality of life because of his 
extraordinary vision and generosity.
