 The
University of Virginia Patent Foundation
has named George T. Gillies, a research
professor in mechanical and biomedical
engineering at U.Va., as the recipient
of its top award, the 2006 Edlich-Henderson
Inventor of the Year Award. Gillies is
being recognized for two decades of work
in developing
innovative catheters
for use in brain surgery. He is a co-inventor
on nine issued patents, which have been
licensed for commercial development or
are in the final stages of licensing, and
is named as the inventor or co-inventor
on another 30 related patent disclosures,
provisional patent filings or patent applications. “It
is a tour de force of technological advancement
and one
of the most impressive innovations resulting
from University research that I’ve seen,” said
Alan Bentley, Patent Foundation associate director.
