| 20110183864 | METHOD FOR LUNG CANCER EARLY DETECTION AND PROGNOSIS - The present invention provides method for the prognosis or detection of lung cancer, notably for early detection of lung cancer, as well as a kit and a (micro) array suitable for said method. | 07-28-2011 |
| 20110174192 | SUGAR MICRO/NANOFOAMS - A method for producing rigid sugar micro-/nanofoams includes providing a solution with at least one sugar, a super- or near-critical fluid and a surfactant component as a (micro)emulsion. The (micro)emulsion is expanded so as to convert the super- or near-critical fluid from a state of liquid-like density to a state of gaseous density so as to thereby obtain a micro-/nanofoam. The micro-/nanofoam is then rigidified so as to obtain a rigid sugar micro-/nanofoam. | 07-21-2011 |
| 20110009921 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR AUDITORY STIMULATION - A device and method for desynchronizing a patient's neuronal brain activity involving a neuron population firing in a pathologically synchronized manner. The device includes a stimulation unit configured to generate an acoustic stimulation signal to stimulate the neuron population when the acoustic stimulation signal is aurally received by the patient. Furthermore, the acoustic stimulation signal has a first frequency and a second frequency, with the first frequency provided to reset the phase of the neuronal brain activity in a first sub-population of the stimulated neuron population, and the second frequency provided to reset the phase of the neuronal brain activity in a second sub-population of the stimulated neuron population. | 01-13-2011 |
| 20100331912 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR VISUAL STIMULATION - A device and method for providing stimulation signals that reset the phase of the neuronal activity of neurons in a patient's brain. The device includes a control unit; and a stimulation unit that has a plurality of stimulation elements, and each stimulation element generates visual stimulation signals that reset the phase of the neuronal activity of the neurons when the signals are taken up via an eye of a patient and transmitted to neurons that are exhibiting a pathologically synchronous and oscillatory neuronal activity. The control unit is further capable of actuating the stimulation unit such that the stimulation elements generate the visual stimulation signals with a time offset in respect to one another and/or with differing phase and/or with differing polarity. | 12-30-2010 |
