Biography

     In 2371, the Emergency Medical Hologram aboard the U.S.S. Voyager was activated when the Chief Medical Officer was killed when the ship was transported to the Delta Quadrant.

     The EMH adapted his programming including the abilities to sign and interact more with the crew.

     The EMH was only designed to be used for only 1,500 hours. By 2373 (Stardate 50252.3), the limit was reached and the EMH suffered a level-4 memory fragmentation. Rather then to re-initialize the EMH, which would of caused him to lose his memory. Instead they merged the EMH program matrix with the Jupiter Station EMH Diagnostic Program.

     In 2374, he traveled to the Alpha Quadrant and was successful in telling Starfleet Command that Voyager had not been destroyed but was in the Delta Quadrant.

     When Voyager traveled back to 1996, Henry Starling (a business tycoon who died trying to steal technology from the future) gave the EMH an autonomous holo-emitter. The device allowed the EMH to travel  anywhere while he was wearing it.
