Great article by our colleague Edward Harris (Communications Division, WIPO) who tells the great story of Arthur Zang. The 26-year-old Cameroonian engineer, developed a tablet-like electrocardiogram, which can be easily used in remote areas to provide high quality medical/cardiac care. 

Here's the story together with a Youtube video: http://www.wipo.int/wipo_magazine/en/2014/05/article_0002.html
