Abstract: The present invention provides a composition and method for preventing the growth of and/or treating cancerous tumors and/or delaying onset of cancer from tumor-initiating cells. The composition includes an effective amount of a compound of Formula (I) or Formula (II): or any pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The composition is administered alone or in combination with one or more chemotherapeutic agents, biological agents and/or anticancer agents. The method may include administering the composition of the present invention with or without the chemotherapeutic, biological, or other cancer treatment agent to a subject in need thereof intravenously, parenterally, nasally, topically or locally, orally, or by liposome, implant or via vessel-targeted nanosuspension delivery.

Abstract: The present invention provides fatty acid-conjugated nanoparticles and methods of making and using the same. Methods for improving delivery of therapeutic agents (e.g., drugs) contained within the fatty acid conjugated nanoparticles to the central nervous system (e.g., across the blood brain barrier) are disclosed.

Abstract: A system incorporating techniques described in this paper includes a bubble server capable of facilitating the creation of location-based virtual networks (“bubbles”) that bubble clients can join. Bubble clients can be implemented on mobile devices that can contact the bubble server via a network connection.
