Therapeutic Inhibition of Molecular Drivers of Microglial Reactivity in Neurodegenerative Disease
It is estimated that over 55 million people have Alzheimer’s disease (AD) or other dementias, and despite their rapidly increasing burden, thus far there are no disease modifying therapeutics available. Novel therapeutic strategies are urgently needed to address the prevention and treatment of AD. Mounting evidence from large scale genetic studies...

Improved Illumination System of Laparoscope Using an Aspherical Lens Array
University of Arizona researchers have developed a more uniform illumination system for better medical images. The system directs outgoing rays from the fiber bundle to provide more uniform illumination, even with extended non-lambertian sources, allowing the full field of view to be fully observed with good detail. It is low cost and can be easily...
