Tunable Phenylacetylene Scaffolds for Ion Binding updated with additional data

This technology encompasses a series of organic compounds for use in rapid detection of ions and small molecules. These compounds have a previously unknown framework that is modular and pre-organized to bind guests in its cavity. The modular nature of the framework permits easy synthetic variation of the compound structure and several of the regions...

Correcting Metamorphopsia

A method and apparatus for the evaluation and measurement of metamorphopsia, a visual disorder in which images appear distorted. This invention provides a very sensitive test for metamorphopsia that detects early retinal changes at a time when therapeutic intervention may be more helpful. The test can be used on a home PC, for greater frequency and...

The Pupillary Dilation Response: A Tool for Assessing Sensory Performance in Humans

This tool demonstrates a correlation between the magnitude of a person’s involuntary pupil dilation and their hearing. A subject’s pupil size increases when they hear a sound, and the magnitude of the pupil increase is proportional to the intensity of the sound. The Pupillary Dilation Response tool can use this correlation to test hearing in patients...
