Use of CRTH2 Antagonist to Treat Neuromyelitis Optica and Other Autoimmune Disorders of the Central Nervous System
Overview The detrimental effects of neuroinflammation, especially neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), on cognitive performance can include severe vision loss, motor deficits, and cognitive decline. We have invented a method that targets the detrimental effects of neuroinflammation on cognitive performance by using a CRTH2 (chemoattractant...

System for facilitating Speech-Based Communication for Individuals Unable to Speak or Write
Overview Our novel communication system enables patients unable to speak or write to communicate with others in real time, through a motion-controlled wireless device. Market Opportunity The use of non-speech communication is important in certain health care situations when a patient is unable to communicate through speech. Examples are when a patient...

Salivary Extracellular Vesicles as Biomarkers for Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders
­Salivary Extracellular Vesicles as Biomarkers for Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders Overview Early diagnosis of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) and related disorders has historically been hampered by lack of readily accessible biomarkers. We have identified biomarkers present in the saliva that can distinguish between individuals with...

Novel Shape-Memory Electrodes for Minimally Invasive Spinal Cord Stimulation and Recording
Novel Shape-Memory Electrodes for Minimally Invasive Spinal Cord Stimulation and Recording Overview Neuromodulation is a rapidly expanding field of clinical neuroscience. Yet the widespread use of neuronal probes for recording and functional stimulation has been slow to develop, in part because of incompatibility problems with existing metallic and...
