At the 2018 R&D Awards, EECS Governor’s Chair Professor Yilu Liu and her research team have been awarded jointly with Oak Ridge National Laboratory for the development of a Mobile Universal Grid Analyzer (m-UGA). It has been selected as one of the 100 Most Technologically Significant New Products of the Year in IT/Electrical.

The R&D 100 Awards have served as the most prestigious innovation awards program for the past 56 years—with the celebration having taken place at the black-tie awards presentation on Nov. 16 in Orlando. The R&D 100 Conference was launched in 2015 as an executive educational event that both celebrates the historic R&D 100 Awards and provides unique opportunities for R&D professionals to learn, network and collaborate.
