Abstract: Methods are provided for detecting non-human candidate DNA within a plasma sample from a human subject. A method of diagnosing and characterizing a bacterial infection may include the steps of obtaining a plasma sample from a subject suspected of having a bacterial infection, extracting cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from the plasma sample, performing whole genome sequencing on the cfDNA to obtain sequencing data, aligning the sequencing data with a human genome to identify human DNA and non-human DNA, removing the human DNA from the sequencing data, assigning the non-human DNA to a candidate pathogen DNA, selecting a subset of the non-human DNA based on a fragment length of the non-human DNA, and determining the presence of the candidate pathogen DNA within the subset of the non-human DNA.

Abstract: A tiled head-mounted display device, comprising: an optical component including a plurality of prisms with free-form surfaces, each prism being a wedge prism comprising a first optical surface, a second optical surface and a third optical surface; and a display component including a plurality of micro-displays, wherein the number of the micro-displays and the number of the prisms with free-form surfaces is identical. The tiled head-mounted display device according to the present invention is compact and light, provides wide field of view and high resolution, especially for the optical tiling head-mounted display device, the exit pupil planes of each display channels are coincident, thus avoiding pupil aberration and keeping exit pupil diameter and eye clearance same as the single ocular. There is no resolution variance throughout the entire field of view, thus preventing extra trapezoid distortion. The tiled head-mounted display device according to the present invention can be readily applicable to augmented environments applications by simply adding an auxiliary free-form lens behind the free-form prism.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods and devices for correcting motion related imaging artifacts. In particular, the methods include positioning a device configured to detect motion at a region of interest on an object, simultaneously obtaining an image data set of the region of interest and a motion data set at the region of interest with the device, and correcting motion related imaging artifacts with an algorithm configured to identify time periods of motion from the motion data set, and correct the image data set corresponding to the identified time periods of motion.

Abstract: A gamma-melanocyte stimulating hormone (γ-MSH) derivative having improved stability, selectivity and bioavailabilty. The γ-MSH derivative is selective for the melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1 R) and is deliverable to skin cells via topical or transdermal delivery. The γ-MSH derivative is made up of naturally occurring amino acids for stimulating melanin from within for photoprotection of human skin against ultraviolet radiation damage.

Abstract: A haptic supporting an intraocular lens (IOL) in the eye permits radial tension from ciliary muscle relaxation rather than contraction to alter the lens power. The IOL is supported by the overlying tissue in the eye such as iris root, sclera and ciliary process, so that anterior and posterior forces on IOL are balanced, and buckling or displacement of lens in the eye or haptic is reduced or prevented. The haptic is of a thickness so as to increase stiffness and to reduce or prevent IOL buckling or displacement.
