  • Minimally invasive implantable neurostimulation system
    Patent number: 11957893
    Abstract: A neuromodulation therapy is delivered via at least one electrode implanted subcutaneously and superficially to a fascia layer superficial to a nerve of a patient. In one example, an implantable medical device is deployed along a superficial surface of a deep fascia tissue layer superficial to a nerve of a patient. Electrical stimulation energy is delivered to the nerve through the deep fascia tissue layer via implantable medical device electrodes.

  • ANTI-HtrA1 ANTIBODIES AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
    Publication number: 20240067752
    Abstract: The present invention provides anti-HtrA1 antibodies (including bispecific anti-HtrA1 anti-Factor D antibodies) and methods of making and using the same, for example, in methods of treating HtrA1-associated disorders, ocular disorders, and/or complement-associated disorders.

  • Method and apparatus for making fused silica
    Patent number: 8137469
    Abstract: Disclosed are process and apparatus for making high purity fused silica glass materials. The process involves depositing soot particles onto an essentially planar deposition supporting surface and modulation of motion of the soot-generating device relative to the deposition supporting surface to result in a low local soot density variation. The apparatus is designed to implement the planar deposition process. The invention makes it possible to produce fused silica glass without the use of potentially contaminating refractory bricks.

  • Method and system for implementing remote procedure calls in a distributed computer system
    Patent number: 5307490
    Abstract: A system and a method for implementing remote procedure calls in a distributed computer system provide a base object class from which all distributed objects can be derived. A program extracting all classes derived from the base class provides an inheritance tree to allow down casting from a root class to a base class and to allow passing high level data structure between participants of a remote procedure call. An Unix script provides stub routines for implementing a client-server model communicating processes.
