UPDATE: India Patent Issuance On February 5, 2024, the Patent Office in India allowed Indian Patent No. 507,065 titled Chip Platforms for Micro-Array 3D Bioprinting that names Dr. Moo-Yeal Lee, a former assistant professor in the Department of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering (ChBME). The invention protects micropillar and microwell chips for microarray analysis that facilitate layered cell printing on both the micropillar and in the microwell. The patented Chip Platforms ensure robust cell spot attachment for high-content imaging and immuno-fluorescent assays and avoid air bubble entrapment. |
UPDATE: Genentech Health Equity Innovation Fund Open Application Start: 1/29/2024 Through the Innovation Fund, Genentech is working to eliminate the unjust inequities that force patients of color to navigate a broken system. But their impact also extends much further. Racial and ethnic health disparities currently cost our society almost $500 billion annually, and by addressing them, we can improve the lives of everyone. To continue funding this important work, the 2024 Innovation Fund will award an additional $10M+ in grant funding to 10+ grantee partners. Additional information can be found in the RFP. |
