Technology Review has announced the 2006 TR35 winners:

Since 1999, the editors of Technology Review have honored the young innovators whose inventions and research we find most exciting; today that collection is the TR35, a list of technologists and scientists, all under the age of 35. Their work--spanning medicine, computing, communications, electronics, nanotechnology, and more--is changing our world.

Stefan Duma, Director of the Center for Injury Biomechanics at Virginia Tech, was recognized for his work on virtual crash test dummies. He also developed a sensor-rigged football helmet that has been commercialized to help doctors understand impacts to the head.
