  • Publication number: 20250009938
    Abstract: A cellularized nerve regeneration graft is disclosed that includes an electrospun biodegradable polymer conduit having an exterior surface and an interior luminal space, a plurality of fibroblasts seeded to the exterior surface of the conduit, and a system filling the interior luminal space of the conduit. The system may include a hydrogel matrix or augmented hydrogel matrix and Schwann cells. The cellularized nerve regeneration graft may be used in the repair of peripheral nerve injuries. Methods of making the cellularized nerve regeneration graft are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20230410255
    Abstract: Systems and techniques are described herein for decreasing quantization latency. In some aspects, a process includes determining a first integer data type of data at least one layer of a neural network is configured to process, and determining a second integer data type of data received for processing by the neural network. The second integer data type can be different than the first integer data type. The process further includes determining a ratio between a first size of the first integer data type and a second size of the second integer data type, and scaling parameters of the at least one layer of the neural network using a scaling factor corresponding to the ratio. The process further includes quantize the scaled parameters of the neural network, and inputting the received data to the neural network with the quantized and scaled parameters.

  • Publication number: 20180057789
    Abstract: Methods, compositions and kits for producing functional neurons, astroctyes, oligodendrocytes and progenitor cells thereof are provided. These methods, compositions and kits find use in producing neurons, astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and progenitor cells thereof for transplantation, for experimental evaluation, as a source of lineage- and cell-specific products, and the like, for example for use in treating human disorders of the CNS. Also provided are methods, compositions and kits for screening candidate agents for activity in converting cells into neuronal cells, astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and progenitor cells thereof.
