Duke Engineering students Irene Tseng and Derek Juang recently won a student design contest sponsored by the Rehabilitation Engineering and Assistive Technology Society of North America (RESNA). Their project was a shoulder-steered tricycle for a boy with TAR syndrome, which results in very short arm length.

    Dear Irene Tseng and Derek Juang,

    Great job!!

    Keep up your good work, parents of this boy for sure very happy to witness their son enjoying his bicycle ride.

    Both of your effort are always well appreciated by parents with kid diagnosed with TAR syndrome.

    Thank YOU to BOTH of YOU!!

    Warmest regards,
