"Makers of Mountains" Protagonist Wins Again: Feng Chia Board Member Zhi-Yuan Lu Awarded 2025 Future Science Prize
“At that time, we were like the Foolish Old Man moving mountains—no one believed we’d succeed, and even talking about dreams felt shameful,” said Dr. Zhi-Yuan Lu, Feng Chia University Board Member and semiconductor industry leader, in the documentary Makers of Mountains—A Century’s Gamble. Now, the film’s real-life protagonist has reached another milestone: for his pioneering work in non-volatile semiconductor memory, Dr. Lu has received the 2025 Future Science Prize in Mathematics and Computer Science, as this year’s sole awardee.
