In normal differentiated cells, most of the genome is densely methylated, except CpG islands near promoters of actively transcribed genes. Maintaining this boundary between unmethylated promoter-associated and adjacent methylated regions is crucial as loss of segregation can lead to disease. Unfortunately, it is not clear where these boundaries are,...

Smart Exosomes Enable Active Pdac Targeting and Evading Mononuclear Phagocycotic System

Project ID: D2021-13 Background Patients affected by pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), an aggressive type of cancer, have a 5-year survival rate of 9%, the lowest of any cancer in the US. Therapies for pancreatic cancer are largely hindered by the lack of an effective delivery system. Exosomes are emerging as promising nanocarriers for genes...

Fully Automated Fraction Collection Instrument

Project ID: TECH-2023-10 Background Size exclusion chromatography (SEC) is the preferred method to isolate and purify exosomes and extracellular vesicles. However, this technique is labor-intensive, requiring the operator to pipette samples, buffer, and wash into individual columns. Current solutions attempt to automate fraction collection, but still...

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...

JobViz: User Interface for Visualization of Majors & Jobs

Invention Summary: University (and industry) career search portals and web-based job search engines allow users to search on many items (e.g., education, location, level, etc.) and then present a text based list of potential job opportunities. University career portals are not as conductive to exploration by job and career searchers as they could...

Targeting LASP1, eIF4A1, eIF4B, and CXC4 with Modulators for treating cancer

Project ID: D2019-32 Background: Breast cancer (BC) is a heterogeneous disease and is the second leading cause of death in women among the cancer mortalities. With the new estimates in 2019, 3 out of 10 women will develop BC in her lifetime and 1 in 7 will succumb to BC. Mortality in BC patients is mainly due to metastasis to the lungs, bone, and brain....

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...
