'''Deborah Duen Ling Chung''' (professionally known as D.D.L. Chung, {{zh|t=鍾端玲 or 黛博拉 • D • L • 钟}}) is an American scientist and university professor.

==Early life and education==
Chung was born and raised in [[Hong Kong]]. Her mother was [[Rebecca Chan Chung]] ([[United States]] [[World War II]] veteran with the [[Flying Tigers]] and the [[United States Army]] in [[China]]), whose mother was [[Lee Sun Chau]] (one of the first female doctors of Western Medicine in China).

Chung studied at [[Ying Wa Girls' School]] and [[King's College (Hong Kong)]]. She moved to the [[United States]] in 1970 and received a B.S. degree in Engineering and Applied Science and an M.S. degree in Engineering Science from [[California Institute of Technology]] (Caltech) in 1973.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.alumni.caltech.edu/techer/groundbreakers | title=Techer | Groundbreakers }}</ref><ref name=About>[http://wings.buffalo.edu/academic/department/eng/mae/cmrl/people.html About Dr. Chung] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080706160755/http://wings.buffalo.edu/academic/department/eng/mae/cmrl/people.html |date=2008-07-06 }}.
