Aaron Hou has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11935629
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure include methods for identifying a set of fluorophore-biomolecule reagent pairs for characterizing a sample by flow cytometry. Methods according to certain embodiments include calculating a spectral spillover spreading parameter for a plurality of fluorophores, pairing each fluorophore with a biomolecule that is specific for a biomarker of a cell in the sample to generate a plurality of fluorophore-biomolecule reagent pairs, generating an adjusted spillover spreading matrix for the fluorophore-biomolecule reagent pairs based on the spectral spillover spreading parameter of each fluorophore and a biomarker classification parameter and identifying an optimal set of fluorophore-biomolecule reagent pairs based on the calculated spillover spreading values from the adjusted spillover spreading matrix. Systems and non-transitory computer readable storage medium for practicing the subject methods are also provided.

  • Patent number: 10791103
    Abstract: A method of connecting to a remote virtual application is carried out at a remote desktop client. The steps of the method include transmitting a request for virtual application connection information, receiving, in response to the request, a path to an executable file, a name or identifier of a remote display protocol, and an indication of a protocol configuration associated with a first virtual application, and causing the executable file for the first virtual application to be launched in a virtual computing instance and accessing the first virtual application using the remote display protocol and the protocol configuration.

  • Patent number: 6297006
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for detecting a target nucleic acid species including the steps of providing an array of probes affixed to a substrate and a plurality of labeled probes wherein each labeled probe is selected to have a first nucleic acid sequence which is complementary to a first portion of a target nucleic acid and wherein the nucleic acid sequence of at least one probe affixed to the substrate is complementary to a second portion of the nucleic acid sequence of the target, the second portion being adjacent to the first portion; applying a target nucleic acid to the array under suitable conditions for hybridization of probe sequences to complementary sequences; introducing a labeled probe to the array; hybridizing a probe affixed to the substrate to the target nucleic acid; hybridizing the labeled probe to the target nucleic acid; affixing the labeled probe to an adjacently hybridized probe in the array; and detecting the labeled probe affixed to the probe in the array.
