Gerald G. Fuller (born 1953) is a Canadian/American chemical engineer and Fletcher Jones II Professor of Chemical Engineering at Stanford University.
Fuller received his PhD in chemical engineering from Caltech in 1980. He is currently the Chemical Engineering department chair at Stanford, and 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.
