Dr. Baowei Fei is recognized by the Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science and received the 2022 Faculty Award for exceptional research contributions.

The Faculty Research Awards recognize three Jonsson School faculty members (one assistant professor, one associate professor, and one full professor) for their outstanding research contributions and are given annually at the Recognition and Appreciation Banquet. Dr. Baowei Fei received the Faculty Research Award at the full professor level, which honors one senior faculty member of the Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Texas at Dallas, who has produced exceptional research.

Dr. Baowei Fei served as the Chair for the NIH Study Section – P41 NIBIB Review F-SEP

Dr. Fei chaired the NIH Study Section Panel (ZEB1 OSR-F M2) for the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB). The NIH Panel consisted of experts and leaders in the field of biomedical imaging and provided the scientific review for the NIBIB Center Grant applications.
