| 20100260679 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETECTING AND REGULATING VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH FACTOR (VEGF) BY FORMING A HOMEOSTATIC LOOP EMPLOYING A HALF-ANTIBODY BIOSENSOR - A biosensor for detection of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) hybridization uses an array of parallel capacitors to detect electrochemical binding of circulating VEGF to immobilized anti-VEGF monoclonal half-antibodies (a-VEGF mhAb). Binding of a-VEGF mhAb modulates the threshold voltage of a circuit, changing the impedance of the circuit. An electrode coated with a p-Si substrate enhances the affinity between the VEGF molecules. A fluid cell delivers VEGF samples onto the active surface of the chip. An array of parallel capacitors arranged in an interdigitated pattern detects the VEGF in the fluid. The detector provides an accurately measured and quantifiable rate of change of the VEGF molecules in vivo, providing real time feedback which is used to measure response of the tumor to delivered chemotherapeutic agents and biological response modifiers (BRMs) for the purpose of determining tumor burden and efficacy of the chemotherapy as part of a homeostatic loop for chemotherapy. | 10-14-2010 |
| 20110092948 | Remotely Activated Piezoelectric Pump for Delivery of Biological Agents to the Intervertebral Disc and Spine - The present disclosure describes a remotely activated piezoelectric pump for delivery of biological agents to the intervertebral disc and spine in order to achieve spinal fusion.

Once a file is burned to disc, it is then deleted from the computer's memory. A lossless compression scheme is used for audio files to decrease file size, making the downloading process faster and requiring less hard drive space. Content files other than audio are downloaded and burned through the same one-step process, without using a lossless compression scheme. An alternative method delays the start of the burn process to ensure that the downloaded files are written continuously to the removable storage media. | 04-29-2010 |

| 20080320547 | EVENT MANAGEMENT MECHANISM FOR ATHLETE RECRUITING ARCHITECTURE - An athlete recruiting architecture is disclosed. The athlete recruiting system allows a recruiting entity, such as a school, to search for and find athletes that satisfy recruiting entity-specified criteria. The athlete recruiting system also allows motion videos to be associated with athletes. These motion videos may be uploaded or streamed to interested recruiting entities over a communication network. The athlete recruiting system provides a video indexing mechanism that allows athletes and recruiting entities to generate and store indices to motion videos. The athlete recruiting system provides hit tracking mechanisms for notifying athletes about recruiting entities that have taken actions that indicate that the recruiting entities are interested in the athlete. As a result, athletes are encouraged to initiate contact with interested recruiting entities. This promotes the formation of relationships between athletes and recruiting entities while adhering to rules imposed on the recruiting process. | 12-25-2008 |

| 20120011302 | NON-VOLATILE SOLID-STATE STORAGE SYSTEM SUPPORTING HIGH BANDWIDTH AND RANDOM ACCESS - Approaches for a non-volatile, solid-state storage system that is capable of supporting high bandwidth and/or random read/write access. The storage system may include a chassis having a bus slot and a disk bay, a master card mounted in the bus slot, and a flash memory card stacked in the disk bay and cabled to the master card. The master card enables one or more flash memory cards to be communicatively coupled to a single PCI Express bus. The master card may split a multi-lane PCI Express bus into a plurality of lanes, where one or more of the flash memory cards communicate over each of the plurality of lanes. Alternately, the master card may includes active circuitry for processing, switching, routing, reformatting, and/or converting the PCI Express bus into one or more busses for a plurality of flash memory cards. The stacked flash memory card is not in an enclosure. | 01-12-2012 |
