UVA Innovation has named Dr. J. Randall Moorman the 2014 Edlich-Henderson Innovator of the Year in recognition of his body of research and, specifically, for the development of a predictive monitoring tool for early diagnosis of potentially fatal illnesses in infants.

“Randall Moorman’s innovative monitoring technology in neonatal intensive care units has significantly improved the lives of many low-birth-weight infants,” said W. Mark Crowell, executive director of U.Va. Innovation and associate vice president for research. “His research has and will have a major impact on the way we look at bedside monitoring for early detection of potentially life-threatening conditions.”
