I am very happy to congratulate both Lucas O. Fonseca, Ana Claudia G. Lopes and all the team for the recent awards! Lucas, first author of Investigating Upper Limb Movement Classification on Users with Tetraplegia as a Possible Neuroprosthesis Interface (EMBC 2018), was an IEEE EMBC 2018 Student Paper Competition finalist. Ana Claudia, first author of Quadriceps electrical stimulation to assist sitting pivot transfers by person with paraplegia (IFESS 2018), was awarded the 2nd place at the student paper competition at IFESS 2018 (Vodovnik Award). Parabéns!
Additional info may be found on the corresponding EMBC paper1 and on the follow-up paper at IEEE Life Sciences Conference2.
