DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): There is currently a significant demand for proteomics software which enables rapid and accurate data analysis. The advances over recent years in proteomics instrumentation and throughput coupled with the continued expansion of biological databases has resulted is researchers being able to produce very large amounts of data in relatively short time periods. Sin ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Hemophilia A is a congenital bleeding disorder caused by genetic mutations affecting a plasma protein, termed factor VIII (fVIII), whose function is to facilitate blood clotting. State of the art treatment of hemophilia A consists of frequent intravenous infusion of fVIII containing products. The current limitations to treating hemophilia are 1) morbidity due t ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Biobehavioral research in a range of basic and translational disciplines (particularly cognitive neuroscience, neuropsychology and experimental psychology) increasingly involves the integration of multiple devices for the collection of data, such as EEG, fMRI, eye-tracking and physiological measurements (galvanic skin response, EKG). Current state-of-the-art ex ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of this project is to develop functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) tools for assessing and treating human patients with a brain neoplasm or other focal pathology involving the visual or motor systems, especially cerebral cortex. Invasive treatment of the pathology can cause debilitating neurological side-effects involving partial or complete lo ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This project represents the first-ever comprehensive investigation to research, develop and introduce innovative application of radio frequency identification (RFID) technology for automatic identification, tracking and status-monitoring of blood and blood products across the entire transfusion medicine supply chain, from the point of collection to the delivery ...
