Fuller received his B.S. in chemical engineering from the University of Calgary in 1975 and his PhD in chemical engineering from Caltech in 1980.[1]
He is a participant in Stanford's CPIMA, a joint venture with the University of California and IBM.
He is known for his work on the rheology of complex fluid interfaces. Work in the Fuller lab on biocompatible structures has applications in tissue engineering. Fuller has also authored a textbook on the optical rheometry of complex fluids.
In 2005, Fuller was elected as a member into the National Academy of Engineering for contributions to our understanding of the rheology of complex fluids and fluid interfaces and the development of unique rheo-optical techniques.
