Therapeutic Lighted Catheter for Treatment and Prevention of Urethral Stricture Disease, Bladder Neck Stenosis and Anastomotic Contractures
An easy-to-use, minimally-invasive treatment that improves the efficacy of endoscopic treatments by preventing/reducing scar formation.
Background:
Urethral strictures cause around 1,000,000 emergency room visits in the US and nearly as many visits to urologist clinics. Treatments include urethral dilations (mechanical stretching) and endoscopic...

Targeting the Folding of Hsp90 Clients by Predicting Their Local Unfolding Status
Computationally predicts potential ideal interaction points for the molecular chaperone heat shock protein-90 (Hsp90).
Background:
Molecular chaperones assist in the folding of unfolded and misfolded polypeptides by stabilization of folding intermediates and prevention of protein misfolding and aggregation. Molecular chaperones are present in all...

Novel Suturing Device Kit
A surgical "sewing machine" for rapid graft quilting and suturing in challenging spaces. Background: Grafts are commonly employed in urologic reconstructive surgery, but anchoring them in less accessible areas -- as in luminal stenosis surgery -- can be difficult. A novel surgical "sewing machine" capable of quilting and suturing in tight spaces was...
