Self-neutralizing air-breathing thruster and method of neutralization
An ion-engine is the cutting edge for atmospheric air-breathing engines. The technology depends on ionizing and neutralizing atmospheric air particles which create thrust. This unique possibility makes it an ideal choice for very-low-orbit satellites. Very- low-orbit satellite capabilities have benefits such as higher resolution for images, weight...

Non-Invasive Plasma Discharge Tube Device for Treating Brain Tumors
Treating brain tumors, like glioblastoma, is challenging. Current glioblastoma drugs, Rapamycin and Temozolomide (TMZ), generally only extend life for a matter of months, are not very effective in treating recurring tumors, and have significant clinical toxicity. A novel Plasma Discharge Tube (PDT) device has the potential to be more effective and less...

PMU-Embedded Analytics for Online Event Detection and Classification in Power Grids
The energy requirement of the world is increasing exponentially every year. With the power demand sites concentrated in the region with the highest population density, energy production sites must be located remotely. This isolation requires lengthy and complicated grids to be designed and manufactured to transmit power over long distances. Grid failures...

Cold atmospheric plasma-stimulated media for treating cancers
For successful cancer therapy, the most important aspect is selective eradication of cancer cells without damaging healthy cells. Cancer cells and normal cells have different thresholds for tolerance of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) before cell death (apoptosis) is induced. Previously, GW researchers invented a cold...

A Mouse Model for Mental Disorders and Epilepsy
Current State of the Art The Neuregulin/ErbB4 signaling pathway is involved in GABAergic neurotransmission, an important inhibitory neurotransmission that regulates several processes in the central nervous system including muscle tone. Aberrant GABAergic function has been implicated in Schizophrenia, Schizo-affective disorder and in Epilepsy....

Erbin as a Target to Regulate ErbB2 and Neuregulin Signaling
AU researchers found that erbin is a protein that interacts with ErbB2 and is critical for its expression on the surface membrane. ErbB2 becomes unstable when erbin expression is inhibited by a small interference RNA. ErbB2 is one of the most potent oncogenes in tumor genesis and metastasis. This therapeutic agent competes favorably with other drugs...

Novel Composition for HER2+ Cancer
The Current State of the Art: HER2 (also known as ErbB2), a receptor tyrosine kinase is overexpressed in around 25% of breast cancer cells. It is a known anti-cancer target to the monoclonal antibody, Trastuzumab. Limitation of the Current Art: However, about 20% patients develop resistance to Trastuzumab. Pertuzumab, Lapatinib, and other trastuzumab...

Distributed Feedback Fiber Laser Pumped by Multimode Diode Lasers
Researchers at the University of Arizona College of Optical Sciences and Canada's Carleton University recently succeeded in fabricating high reflectivity (>99%) Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBGs) into phosphate glass fibers using UV light and a phase mask technique. With this new manufacturing technique, fiber lasers can be created as single monolithic...

All-Fiber Multicore Fiber Laser Devices
Researchers at the University of Arizona have developed a compact, power-scalable, alignment-free fiber laser that takes a new approach to stabilizing phase-locked operation of multi-core fiber lasers by completely removing all free space optical components. This high-brightness, all-fiber laser package uses passive optical fiber spliced at both ends...

Netrin-1 as a Potential Target for Diagnosis and Treatment of Male Fertility and Infertility Associated Disorders
Current State of the Art Male infertility can range from low or no production of sperm to poor motility in mature sperm. Treatments for male infertility include surgery that can involve removing occlusions that block sperm motility or direct harvesting of the sperm. Medications are used that increase sperm production. These include gonadotropins, testosterone...
