The 22nd annual Create the Future Design Contest for engineers, students, and entrepreneurs worldwide, sponsored by COMSOL, Inc., and Mouser Electronics, drew innovative product ideas from engineers and students more than 55 countries from around the world. The Medical category itself received many innovative entries from 17 countries. Analog Devices and Intel were supporting sponsors, and Zeus sponsored the Medical category. The contest, which was established in 2002, recognizes and rewards engineering innovations that benefit humanity, the environment, and the economy.
A competition among the finalists from all categories took place November 15, at which the judges selected NETrolyze: A Novel Immunotherapy for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer as the grand prize winner. The grand prize winner receives $25,000.
