"I am honored to receive this award recognizing not only my work, but also all the inventive work coming out of the CT Clinical Innovation Center. I couldn't have accomplished so much without the amazing team that I am privileged to work with. I especially want to thank Drs. Shuai Leng and Lifeng Yu for being exceptional co-inventors, colleagues, and friends, and thank the Center co-director, Dr. J.G. Fletcher, for helping to build such a supportive and creative environment from which to innovate and invent."
