Technologies Available for License MEMSBased Charge Pump 2013123 patent pending MEMSbased charge pump with much higher breakdown voltages than transistor counterparts, desired for capacitivegap transduced resonators that dominate commercial MEMSbased timing market. [more] > high voltage applications that integrate into systems alongside transistor chips Licensing contact: Michael Cohen Improved Fourier Transform for Sparse Spectrum Signals 2013111 patent pending Sparse spectrum signals require FFT complexity of n log(n). Invented methodology finds the spectrum using ultralow complexity of k log(k), with substantial CPU and battery power savings. [more] > medical devices, communications, multimedia signal Licensing contact: Michael Cohen Fully Integrated Spectrometer with Photon Engine 2013029 patent pending uTAS fully integrated microspectrometer can act as ubiquitous optical microsystem platform. [more] > POC diagnostics, biowarfare agent detection, high throughput disease screening Licensing contact: Kathleen McCowin Super Contrast Polarization Microscope 2013017 New microscope greatly enhances contrast of any anisotropic features on substrate, which enables new type of identification, metrology, and spectroscopy of previously difficult to observe nanoscale materials and structures on substrates. [more] > realtime observation of previously optically invisible nanoobjects, videorate imaging Licensing contact: Kathleen McCowin Method of Forming a Transistor 2013105 New transistors using layered metal dichalcogenides leverages lowcost thin film deposition technologies to enable both p and ntype devices. [more] > transistors, sensors, flexible electronics Licensing contact: Marc Oettinger Automated Light Amplified Measurement of Jugular Venous Pulsations 2013138 Inexpensive light amplified device to detect location of jugular pulsations on the neck and digitally measure venous pressure with universal readings. [more] > cardiac health detection Licensing contact: Kathleen McCowin If you are interested in other licensing or research collaboration opportunities with IPIRA, please contact ipira@berkeley.edu.

Announcements University Startup Accelerator Stock Equity Program Startups in UC Berkeley's Foundry@CITRIS program are executing the first University Startup Accelerator Stock Equity (USASE) agreement. This new type of agreement provides UC Berkeley with stock in startups that participate in the University's startup accelerator programs. The USASE agreement can also mitigate IP ownership issues for startups in these university programs. For more information about the USASE agreement, contact IPIRA's Director of Innovation Ecosystem Development Mike Cohen at mike.c@berkeley.edu. New SBIR Funding Opportunities Developing a PointofCare Device for the Diagnosis of Sickle Cell Disease in Low Resource Settings This funding supports the development of a point of care (POC) device for the diagnosis of sickle cell disease (SCD) including HbSS, HbSC, HbS/ßthal0 in infants and young children in lowincome and low resource settings. Earliest submission date: 9/23/13 | Participating organization: NIH Revolutionary Genome Sequencing Technologies – The $1000 Genome The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) solicits R43/R44 grant applications to develop novel technologies that will enable extremely lowcost, high quality DNA sequencing. Earliest submission date: 9/17/13 | Participating organization: NIH Biomarker Candidate Platforms for Inflammatory Diseases This is aimed towards SBIR Fast Track grant applications that propose to test and/or validate novel, stateoftheart candidate biomarker platforms for predicting onset and progression of inflammatory diseases of interest to the NIAMS and for determining the pharmacodynamics, safety and/or efficacy of therapeutic agents targeting those diseases. Earliest submission date: 9/11/13 | Participating organization: NIH
