5 Benefits of Drones (UAS) That Might Surprise You
Do you know that drones, also called unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), have practical applications that have nothing to do with weapons or espionage? No? Here are a few to consider: 1. They can save lives. In natural and manmade disasters, UAS can be positioned to survey damage, locate stranded and injured victims, and assess ongoing threats…

Reflections on Douglas Engelbart and His Influence on SRI Today
When I joined SRI International nearly 15 years ago, one man stood at the top of my people-to-meet list. He was a soft-spoken, friendly, sometimes stubborn man with big ideas on how to make the world a better place. Through the years, I was lucky not only to have many thought-provoking conversations with him, but…

Blocking the B7-H4 Pathway with Novel Recombinant Antibodies Enhances T Cell-Mediated Antitumor Responses
We have recently demonstrated that the expression of B7-H4 on the surface of malignant cells in vivo is inducible, and that novel anti-B7-H4 recombinant antibodies can reverse the inhibition of tumor-specific T cells.

Alpha4beta2 Nicotinic Receptors Play a Role in the nAChR-Mediated Decline in l-Dopa-Induced Dyskinesias in Parkinsonian Rats
The present experiments were done to determine if alpha4beta2* nAChRs are also involved in l-dopa-induced dyskinesias. Since alpha4alpha5beta2 nAChRs are also predominantly on striatal dopamine terminals, these data suggest that drugs targeting alpha4beta2 nAChRs may reduce l-dopa-induced dyskinesias in late stage Parkinson’s disease.
