Publication number: 20240139806Abstract: Techniques for depowdering in additive fabrication are provided. According to some aspects, techniques are provided that separate powder from additively fabricated parts through liquid immersion of the parts. Motion of the liquid, such as liquid currents, may dislodge or otherwise move powder away from additively fabricated parts to which it is adhered or otherwise proximate to. The liquid may also provide a vehicle to carry away powder from the additively fabricated parts. Removed powder may be filtered or otherwise separated from the liquid to allow recirculation of the liquid to the parts and/or to enable re-use of the powder in subsequent additive fabrication processes. Techniques for depowdering through liquid immersion may be automated, thereby mitigating challenges associated with manual depowdering operations.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 1, 2023Publication date: May 2, 2024Applicant: Desktop Metal, Inc.Inventors: Jamison Go, Daniel Sachs, Robert J. Nick, Jonah Samuel Myerberg, Michael Goldblatt

Patent number: 11951515Abstract: Techniques for depowdering in additive fabrication are provided. According to some aspects, techniques are provided that separate powder from parts by directing gas onto, or near to, the powder. While fragile green parts, such as green parts produced by binder jetting, may be fragile with respect to scraping or impacts, such parts may nonetheless be resistance to damage from directed gas, even if directed at a high pressure. Techniques for depowdering through directed application of gas may be automated, thereby mitigating challenges associated with manual depowdering operations.Type: GrantFiled: August 3, 2020Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: Desktop Metal, Inc.Inventors: Jamison Go, Michael Santorella, Jonah Samuel Myerberg, Matthew McCambridge, Alexander LeGendre, Joseph Gabay, Robert J.

Patent number: 11865615Abstract: Techniques for depowdering additively fabricated parts are described. The techniques utilize various mechanisms to separate powder from parts. For instance, techniques for depowdering described herein may include fabrication of auxiliary structures in addition to fabrication of parts. Certain auxiliary structures may aid with depowdering operations, and may be fabricated along with parts during an additive fabrication process. The auxiliary structures may be shaped and/or have positional and/or geometrical relationships to the parts during fabrication. For instance, an auxiliary structure may include a cage structure fabricated around one or more parts.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2020Date of Patent: January 9, 2024Assignee: Desktop Metal, Inc.Inventors: Jamison Go, Emanuel M. Sachs, Michael Goldblatt, Jeffrey von Loesecke

Publication number: 20220222601Abstract: The process of identifying suitable subjects for scientific investigation, drawing together collaborators to perform that research, securing funding for that research and initiating the research is accelerated by a process that brings together researchers and investigators who provide short statements of evidence relevant to the subject of evidence. As the collection is built, investigators and researchers may provide conjectures and projections as to what sort of research the collection suggests. That collection is made available to funding entities on a secure basis to form proposed research initiatives they are desirous of funding from which proposals a research proposal is selected to perform the research on the subject of interest. Signing of researchers and initiating the research completes a process that completes the cycle of research and development more quickly than current models.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 11, 2021Publication date: July 14, 2022Applicant: AIXXIA LLCInventors: Michael GOLDBLATT, Murray TAYLOR, Teri SCHINDLER, Michael BECKER, Flint DILLE, Dan AREY

Publication number: 20140271671Abstract: A method for identifying host genes and encoded proteins for potential targets for therapeutic intervention employs a Gene Search Vector that is either lentivirus or MMLV-based, and can be used to interrogate an entire cell genome without prior knowledge of the genomic sequence. This Random Homozygous Gene Perturbation (RUGP) technique is rapidly verifiable and is used to identify potential host targets for intervention for influenza, HIV and other viral infections. Using Thermal Assymetric Interlaced (TAIL)-PCR, the period for identification of promising targets is reduced from months to weeks or less. Specific targets including PTCH1, Robo1 and Nedd4 are reviewed in detail.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2013Publication date: September 18, 2014Applicant: Eli Lilly and CompanyInventors: Michael S.

Patent number: 8361792Abstract: The invention reflects enhanced antibody expression of an antibody of interest by cell lines transformed by random homozygous gene perturbation methods to either increase or decrease the expression pattern of a gene of the cell line other than the antibody of interest. The transformed cell line exhibits specific productivity rates, SPR, for the RHGP transformed cell liens of 1.5 or more, as compared with the antibody expressing cell line parents prior to transformation by RHGP. A knock out or anti-sense construct may be devised to reduce expression of the target gene, a promoter may be inserter to enhance expression of the target gene. The antibodies expressed by the transformed cell lines exhibit the binding properties of their parent cell lines prior to transformation with RHGP, and increase Total Volumetric Production of said antibody by said cells in a given volume.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2010Date of Patent: January 29, 2013Assignee: Functional Genetics, Inc.Inventors: Roxanne Duan, Michael Goldblatt

Patent number: 8207209Abstract: A method of inhibiting viral respiratory infection in a mammal in need of same, includes administering an effective amount of 2-[2-(5-carbamimidoyl-benzofuran-2-yl)-vinyl]-H-benzoimidazole-5-carboxamidine or the Bis-N-hydroxyamidine prodrug thereof, prior to viral infection, or therapeutically following viral infection, to inhibit that viral infection. The compound selectively inhibits Caspase 2 and/or 8 as to prevent infective viral particle release. It is optionally administered IV, IP, orally or via other conventional administration routes in a dosage range of 1 ng/kg-200 mg/kg of body weight.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 2008Date of Patent: June 26, 2012Assignee: Functional Genetics, Inc.Inventors: Michael Kinch, Michael Goldblatt

Publication number: 20110287019Abstract: The invention provides for inhibition of viral disease by the provision to a mammalian host of antibodies directed against an escort protein like Tsg101. These proteins appear on the surface of a cell, and thus can be bound by circulating antibodies thereto. By binding escort proteins on the cell surface, budding of viral particles is inhibited. The virus infects the initial cells, but cannot escape that cell to infect the body en masse.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 13, 2011Publication date: November 24, 2011Applicant: FUNCTIONAL GENETICS, INC.Inventors: ROXANNE DUAN, MICHAEL KINCH, MICHAEL GOLDBLATT

Publication number: 20110206695Abstract: XMRV appears to be related to both prostate cancer if it infects a male germ cell and chronic fatigue syndrome in both sexes. (If the virus does not infect a germ cell). Prostate cancer cells exhibit TSG101 on the surface only upon infection with a virus like XMRV. Antibodies to TSG101 can be effective diagnostics to identify individuals with a predisposition to prostate. They can also be used in place of current diagnostics to confirm the presence of prostate cancer. TSG101 antibodies, when administered in vivo, exhibit the ability to reduce tumor size, suppress metastatic transformation and extend survival.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 25, 2011Publication date: August 25, 2011Applicant: FUNCTIONAL GENETICS, INC.Inventors: Manu Kohli, Michael Goldblatt, Michael Kinch
