  • Publication number: 20180253590
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses for analyzing histopathology images to determine the presence of certain predetermined abnormalities. The system processes histopathology images to identify/highlight regions of interest (e.g., a region that may comprise parts of a tumor, cancerous cells, or other predetermined abnormality) for subsequent review by a pathologist or other trained professional. For example, the system may process histopathology images of H&E-stained lymph node tissue to identify potentially cancerous cells within the histopathology images.

  • Patent number: 9345730
    Abstract: The invention is directed to methods of using Chlorella protothecoides microalgal biomass in the treatment of individuals having impaired glucose metabolism. In some cases, the patient has impaired fasting glucose, impaired glucose tolerance, or diabetes. In some methods, algal biomass is used to reduce blood glucose and/or body fat in a subject, or to increase the relative abundance of beneficial gut microflora in a subject. In preferred embodiments, the biomass is derived from Chlorella protothecoides cultures grown heterotrophically in which the algal cells comprise at least 15% algal oil by dry weight.

  • Patent number: 8905354
    Abstract: A step assembly for a vehicle can include a housing and a support member hingedly coupled to the housing with a shaft. A first locking feature can be associated with the housing while a second locking feature can be associated with the support member. A spring can be operably associated with the support member and the housing such that the spring can bias the second locking feature toward the first locking feature. The support member is configured to rotate between a stowed position and a deployed position. Further, the support member is configured as a step support and a hand hold device.
