Needle Clamp With Rolling Sphere (Case No. 2024-211)

Summary: UCLA researchers from the Department of Radiology have developed a novel needle-holding clamp for use during minimally invasive procedures. Background: Minimally invasive procedures are now widely used for diagnosing and treating subcutaneous and deep tissue targets. These procedures use percutaneous needle insertions rather than large incisions...

Salivary Exosome (NSEV) Analysis to Elucidate Intercellular Signaling Events that Precede Pilot Fatigue (UCLA Case No. 2021-172)

Researchers at UCLA’s Department of Neurology and Drug Discovery Lab have identified a novel set of biomarkers that change based on levels of Cognitive Fatigue (CF). These biomarkers can be used to non-invasively predict and assess levels of cognitive fatigue. BACKGROUND: Cognitive fatigue (CF) is an important factor in the efficiency and safety...
