Then a Sunday school teacher set him on course to become an electrical engineer, spurring his interest in microwaves. More than a technical tale, Ken's riveting life story follows a long road of overcoming adversity, serving his country, and improving the world through technology. Accompanied by a team of devoted colleagues, Ken always made up his mind to \"keep going,\" despite personal tragedies and a betrayal that nearly cost him his life's work. The recipient of 56 U.S. patents, Ken is currently developing a microwave-based system to eliminate blood-borne viruses in the bloodstream, aiming to cure some of the world's deadliest diseases.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKenneth L.
