University of Rhode Island faculty member He “Helen” Huang, an assistant professor in the Department of Electrical, Computer & Biomedical Engineering, has been awarded the 2008 Delsys Prize.

The contest was established six years ago by Carlo J. De Luca – founder and president of medical technology companies Delsys Inc. and Altec Inc., and founding director of the NeuroMuscular Research Center at Boston University – to encourage innovation in electromyography (EMG), the study of the electrical signal generated by muscles as they contract. Those signals are the focus of Delsys, which designs, manufactures and markets EMG and electrocardiography (EKG) sensors and related technology.
