Stable Micelle Drug Formulations
Researchers at The University at Buffalo have developed a novel method that is effective in formulating drugs. Hydrophobic drug formation traditionally requires heavy use of surfactants for administration. This technology, which is available for licensing, produces concentrated hydrophobic drugs that produce fewer negative side effects than traditional...

Polar Coding for Noisy Write-Once Memories (Cal Tech lead)
Write-once memory is a model for data-storage devices, where a set of binary cells are used to store data, and the cell levels can only increase when the data is rewritten. The WOM model was recently identified as a good model for flash memories, where rewriting delays expensive block erasures and by that leads to better preservation of cell quality...

A Novel Marker for Detection of Prostate Cancer
Myosine IC isoform A is overexpressed in prostate cancer tissues and metastatic cells. The monoclonal antibodies and PCR tools developed here detect overexpression. In 2012 a novel isoform of myosine IC designated isoform A was discovered. Several years later tissue distribution studies discovered it was overexpressed in prostate cancer tissues and...
