Background and Unmet Need Athletes worldwide employ early and on-going compression therapy to greatly improveshort-term recovery as well as long-term outcomes for those engaging in strenuous physical activity. Medically, applying targeted pressure through compression has been found to boost blood circulation and reduce inflammation, expediting healing.1 A recent study further showed such therapy improves both […]

An over the counter, portable, non-invasive, adhesive free, and continuous glucose monitor device. Background and Unmet Need Diabetes Mellitus is increasing at an unprecedented pace; more than half a billion people are living with diabetes worldwide. The disease affects men, women, and children of all ages in every country, and that number is projected to […]
Concussive injuries in professional, club, and amateur sports, as well as across military occupations, are a major concern. Amateur athletes, including equestrian, contact sports, roller sports, and skiing, have been identified as one of the most susceptible populations to sustaining Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). Further, 45% of TBI-related emergency pediatric visits result from an injury […]
Athletes worldwide employ early and on-going compression therapy to greatly improve short-term recovery as well as long-term outcomes for those engaging in strenuous physical activity. Medically, applying targeted pressure through compression has been found to boost blood circulation and reduce inflammation, expediting healing. A recent study further showed such therapy improves both perceptual and performance indices of exercise recovery. […]
Coating electronics and performance materials requires assembling nanoparticles on targeted substrates such as polymers, ceramics, and metals. Many high-performance materials have hydrophobic or chemically inert surfaces. As a result, nanomaterial or particle coatings characteristically do not naturally stick to these surfaces, restricting their applications for aerospace, high altitude, battlefield, and other extreme environments. Currently, techniques […]
