Patent CA-2933690-A1 (CA)
Inventor: D'OTTAVIANO FABIO
IPC: E04C2/296
Filed: 2014-12-12
Abstract: Styrenic polymer foams having one or two densified major surfaces are produced by applying heat and pressure (4) to such surfaces to soften the polymer and collapse cells adjacent to said surface to form a densified skin on such surface. The heated surface or surfaces are then cooled under pressure to form a foam having an undensified core (7) and densified skins (5) on one or both sides. The partially densified foams are especially useful for forming laminates in which the foam forms a core. Adhesion to external layers (30,32) is improved due to the presence of the densified layer.

Title: Method for producing sinoatrial node cells (pacemaker cells) from stem cells, and use of the produced sinoatrial node cells
Inventor: DAVID ROBERT
IPC: C12N5/077
Filed: 2014-12-10
Abstract: The electric pacemakers currently used in the therapeutic approach for treating sick sinus syndrome cannot be hormonally regulated and pose the risk of infections or a premature battery discharge. These problems can be overcome by means of biological pacemakers obtained from pluripotent stem cells (PSC). It could be demonstrated that by differentiating stem cells in a controlled manner using TBX, sinoatrial node cell inductors, and an additional Myh6 promoter-specific antibiotic selection, cardiomyocyte aggregates are obtained, up to over 80% of which consists of physiologically functional pacemaker cells. For the first time, the induced sinoatrial nucleoli (iSABs) exhibited very high beat frequencies (300 - 400 bpm) similar to those in mouse hearts and were capable of rhythmically stimulating cardiac muscle cells ex vivo in a stable manner. Most of the genes in the iSAB transcriptome mapped using RNA-seq could be assigned to the ontologies of cardiac function/cardiac development and to the structures of contractile cells. Overall, this is the first example of highly pure and functional sinoatrial tissue derived from stem cells, thereby marking an important step towards a future cell therapy and in vitro testing of medications.

Title: Localization of a wireless user equipmentdevice in a target zone
Inventor: LI LIQUN
IPC: G01S5/02
Filed: 2015-02-02
Abstract: Disclosed herein are techniques and systems for performing wireless-based localization using a zonal framework. An area (i.e., surface or space) may be partitioned into multiple zones, and one or more signal propagation models for one or more wireless access points (APs) may be generated for each zone. The result is a set of zonal signal propagation models that allow for improved model fitness on a per-zone basis. A process includes receiving a location query associated with a wireless communication device, selecting a target zone among multiple available zones of an area, and estimating a location of the wireless communication device based at least in part on one of a signal propagation model associated with the target zone or a fingerprint-based localization. The signal propagation model associated with the target zone may be generated based on training samples observed exclusively within the target zone.
