CFB Client JelikaLite Awarded NSF Grant to Further Clinical Prototype

CFB Client JelikaLite has been awarded a 2-year, $959,000 National Science Foundation (NSF) grant to develop a non-invasive therapeutic brain stimulation medical device to improve the communication, responsiveness, and social integration of autistic children.

JelikaLite is a clinical stage medical technology company developing a transformational neuromodulation platform for unmet needs in developmental pediatric disorders whose lead product is focused on Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

The NSF project’s objectives are to finalize the current clinical prototype into a manufacturing-ready product and implement a platform for personalizing transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) treatment based on individual sensor -derived patient characteristics.

Details of the award can be found here.

You will learn about:
  • Patent, Trademark, Copyright and Trade Secret Basics
  • Common misconceptions about IP, e.g., Patentability and enforcement vs. Freedom-to-Operate
  • Preparing for your pitch and the resultant Due Diligence
  • What steps to take (or not to take) in order to avoid losing your precious IP leverage: Unintentionally forfeiting IP rights,Controlling ownership,And other IP portfolio building strategies

BARDA is interested in learning more about the current landscape and technologies and companies in the needle-less delivery space. The delivery platforms should be compatible with biologic payloads (e. g. vaccines, monoclonal antibodies) that utilize the following alternative routes of administration:
- Oral
- Buccal/Sublingual
- Inhalation (e. g. aerosolization)
Other platforms

Technologies NOT of interest:
- Needle-based (e.g. auto injectors)
- Microneedle systems (e. g. patches)
- Implant-based

Particular interest in plug-and-play platforms that have potential to easily allow for the use of a wide variety of vaccines or therapeutics with the platform.
