Deep field penetration in transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) via magnetic flux concentrator and strategic excitation coil placement
INV-14084 Background Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a method for noninvasive, non-contact stimulation of neurons in the brain by magnetic induction of electrical currents. The TMS devices currently available on the market provide superficial stimulation due to the rapid attenuation of the field. Deeper penetration can only be achieved...

A Rapid On-Site Detection Method for Gamma-Hydroxybutyric Acid (GHB), a Popular Psychoactive Drug.
INV-20053 Background Gamma-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB) is used for recreational purposes as a club drug and often leads to drug-facilitated sexual assault. GHB can cause severe cognitive dysfunction and even death when overdosed. The risks associated with a lack of quick on-site diagnostic solutions as intoxicated individuals are often left unaided...

Nanopreparation for Co-Delivery of Drugs and siRNA
INV-13004 Background Overexpression of p‑glycoprotein (encoded by MDR1 gene) is often associated with multidrug-resistant cancer. This protein leads to drug resistance by the efflux of chemotherapeutic drugs from the cancerous cells. Small interfering RNA (siRNA), also known as post-transcriptional gene silencer, can suppress the expression of specific...

Reversible Microwells for Single Cells Culture and Recovery
INV-20077 Background Microwells are popular single cell-level culture platforms where small wells of tens of microns in size are able to hold only one cell or cell pairs according to the scope. Arrays of these wells are useful to separate cell populations and culture or image them. However, these wells are monolithic and normally engraved in the...

Man 1-2 Man-PEGylated Derivative as a Tool for in vitro and in vivo Dendritic Cell Targeting
INV-1151 Background The immune system (IS) has a delicate equilibrium between its cells. The most important cells of the IS are the B lymphocytes (BL), macrophages (MO), and dendritic cells (DC), so-called antigen presenting cells (APC). They are the key-linkers between the innate and the adaptive immunity, which is a crucial factor that will lead...
