  • DELIVERY DEVICES FOR HEART VALVE TREATMENT DEVICES
    Publication number: 20240065836
    Abstract: Components for valve treatment systems are disclosed. Valve treatment systems can include a delivery system for an implantable device. The delivery system can include one or more of clasp control components slidably disposed on a catheter handle, a control element for opening and closing the implantable device, a catheter assembly with features to reduce friction with another catheter assembly, grips for attaching catheter assemblies to clamps, catheter assemblies with features that stiffen or provide variable stiffness, and catheter assemblies with one or more steering control lumens incorporated into a reinforcement layer.

  • One dimensional molecular representations
    Patent number: 7167851
    Abstract: Molecules are represented as one dimensional strings of atoms having a linear position and a width. One dimensional representations are compared to assess the likelihood of similarity in chemical behavior.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 31, 2001
    Date of Patent: January 23, 2007
    Assignee: Accelrys Software Inc.
    Inventors: Steven L. Dixon, Kenneth M. Merz, Jr., Marvin Waldman
  • Method of selecting marker molecules for prediction of molecular activity
    Patent number: 7146278
    Abstract: A method predicts at least one property of a candidate molecule. A set of reference molecules is classified as either possessing or not possessing at least one property. A subset of the molecules is selected from which a plurality of marker molecules is chosen. The marker molecules are used to predict whether the candidate molecule possesses at least one property.
    Type: Grant
