Abstract: An implantable drug delivery device and method for delivering a drug to a living body. The device includes a housing having at least one opening, a reservoir within the housing adapted to contain a drug, a temporary seal closing the opening of the housing, and a heating element in thermal contact with the temporary seal. The heating element is adapted to generate heat in response to a magnetic field to melt the temporary seal and release a drug within the reservoir through the opening of the housing.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an antifouling device for large, nonplanar optical surfaces. The device can be used as marine or implantable applications that has nested multiscale features for active and passive anti-biofouling. By combining active and passive anti-biofouling mechanisms, this device will provide long-term protection against biofouling for over 10 years, extending the lifetime of self-clearing marine or implantable sensors.

Abstract: Drainage devices have a self-clearing capability for reducing obstructions and a controllable flow restriction capability for controlling drainage flow, and microactuators for providing such capabilities. Such a microactuator includes a frame and an appendage anchored to the frame such that the frame supports the appendage, the frame at least partially surrounds the appendage, and the appendage is disposed in an opening or window defined by the frame. The appendage includes a platform and at least one beam that anchors the platform to the frame to enable the appendage to deflect out of a plane defined by the frame. The platform may include a ferromagnetic material that enables the appendage to deflect in response to an applied magnetic field.

Abstract: A self-cleaning cannula for placement in a patient, including an elongated tube portion having an inner surface and an oppositely disposed outer surface, a first end fluidically connectable to a fluid source outside the patient and a second, oppositely disposed end for fluidically communicating with the patient, and a plurality of magnetic nanoparticles operationally connected to at least a portion of the cannula. The metallic nanoparticles may be energized by an applied oscillating magnetic field to heat the cannula.

Abstract: Drainage devices and microactuator systems adapted to be incorporated into drainage devices to provide a self-clearing capability for reducing obstructions in the drainage devices and/or a self-monitoring capability to confirm the overall operating condition of the drainage devices and their microactuators. Such a microactuator system includes a microactuator having a base, a cantilever comprising a flexure extending from the base and a plate structure at a distal end of the flexure, a sensing element on the flexure for sensing deflection of the cantilever, and a device for inducing an oscillating deflection of the cantilever relative to the base.

Abstract: A direct electron transfer amperometric biosensor fabricated using direct write printing technology for in vivo electrochemical monitoring, such as monitoring of neurotransmitters and other biomarkers, e.g., in traumatic spinal cord injury. The biosensor is fabricated by immobilizing glutamate oxidase on nanocomposite electrodes made of platinum nanoparticles, multiwall carbon nanotubes and a conductive polymer on a flexible substrate.
