Optimizing brain penetrance of caspase-6 inhibitors to treat neurodegenerative diseases
SBC: ELGIA THERAPEUTICS, INC. Topic: RPROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The cysteine protease caspase-6 (Casp6) has been associated with neurodegenerative diseases for over fifteen years. In Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Casp6 is colocalized with amyloid plaques and tau tangles in human brain, and both human and animal model data indicate that activated Casp6 contributes to neuronal inflammation, neurodegeneration, and cleavage of proteins to to ...

Glove-based Tactile Streaming of Braille Characters and Digital Images for the Visually Impaired
SBC: HAPTX INC Topic: NEIThis project will achieve a computerized system that supplies digital content, both lexical and graphical, suitable for children, students and working adults of the Visually Impaired (VId) community, to increase their autonomy and potentiate their Quality of Life and societal contribution. While there is notable academic research, such as a high-density pin display tablet, there is no commercial, ...

Clusterin Targeting of Ocular Surface Disease
SBC: PROTERIS BIOTECH, INC. Topic: NEIPROJECT SUMMARYThe ocular surface (OcS) comprises the stratified squamous epithelia of the cornea/conjunctiva, its adnexa, and the overlying tear film. OcS disease disrupts the normal developmental progression, maturation, and turnover of OcS epithelia, causing “epitheliopathy” characterized by cell damage, barrier disruption and programmed cell death. OcS disease initiated by tear dysfunction ...

A Novel Technology to Disseminate WOOP (Wish, Outcome, Obstacle, Plan) to Dementia Caregivers
SBC: BORROW MY GLASSES LLC Topic: NIA1 Approximately 6.5 million Americans aged 65 and older live with dementia, supported by more than 11 million2 unpaid family caregivers. These numbers are projected to rise exponentially in the coming decades fueling the3 need to develop scalable ways to support dementia caregivers. The need to empower dementia caregivers to4 continue providing care while maintaining their own health and well-bein ...

Developing a novel system combining cognitive assessment with PASCALL FDA-cleared intraoperative anesthesia EEG brain monitor to prevent postoperative neurocognitive disorders in aging patients
SBC: PASCALL Systems, Incorporated Topic: NIAEach day, more than 100,000 patients undergo general anesthesia in the United States. The current practice of general anesthesia is prone to over-sedating patients, either due to the lack of brain monitoring or using brain monitors with inaccurate indices. Over-sedation (at 28% incidence) contributes to perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PNDs) in elderly population (≥65yrs). The cost of PND ...

Wearable Array for Ultrasound Stimulation on the Retina
SBC: Phononz Inc Topic: NEIRetinal degeneration involving progressive deterioration and loss of function of photoreceptors is a major cause of permanent vision loss worldwide. Strategies to treat these incurable conditions incorporate retinal prostheses via electrically stimulating surviving retinal neurons with implanted devices in the eye, optogenetic therapy, and sonogenetic therapy. Existing challenges of these strategi ...

A Novel Therapeutic to Promote Corneal Repair
SBC: MICROCURES INC Topic: NEIThe cornea is one of the most important tissues in the eye and its transparency is critical for good visual function in humans. Corneal tissue injuries are the most common, everyday issue for practicing ophthalmologists and can run the gamut in severity. Healing of large corneal wounds, such as alkali burns, involves extended migration of epithelial cells as well as reinnervation of the cornea. Ho ...

Demonstrating miniaturized production of a KOR PET tracer as a proof-of-concept for low-cost distribution of nascent PET neurotracers
SBC: DropletPharm Inc. Topic: NIDAPROJECT SUMMARY / ABSTRACT Positron-emission tomography (PET) studies play a critical role in many areas of neurological health by enabling quantitative in vivo measurements of specific neuroreceptor systems (e.g. receptor density, drug occupancy, endogenous ligand occupancy) to (i) evaluate fundamental hypotheses about disease or (ii) aid in the development of novel treatments targeting those rec ...

Live spike sorting for multichannel and high-channel recordings
SBC: POPNEURON LLC Topic: 106Project Summary: The goal of this project is to create two prototypes of a novel live spike sorting system which can be used by investigators to spike sort streams of neural data recorded by multi-channel, high channel and ultra-high channel probes. In most in-vivo extracellular recording conditions, an electrode can pick up neural spikes from several nearby neurons resulting in so-called “multi ...

Chondrofluid for arthroscopic knee cartilage repair
SBC: CARTILAGE INC Topic: NIAMSPROJECT SUMMARY Minor injuries to articular cartilage can initiate a catabolic cascade, causing small defects to progress into larger, more symptomatic defects. Pain, lesion progression, and accelerated joint deterioration may be avoided with strategies that repair small defects with hyaline-like cartilage. The repair of chondral defects using arthroscopic techniques, performed in a minimally inva ...
