Barrow Innovation Center: A 5-Year Update and Future Direction
No full textOBJECTIVE: The rich history of neurosurgical innovation served as a model for the Barrow Innovation Center\u27s establishment in 2016. The center\u27s accomplishments are summarized in hopes of fostering the development of similar centers and initiatives within the neurosurgical and broader medical community. METHODS: A retrospective review (January 2016-July 2021) of patent filings, project proposals, and funding history was used to generate the data presented in this operational review. RESULTS: Through the 5-year period of analysis, 55 prior art searches were conducted on new patentable ideas. A total of 87 provisional patents, 25 Patent Cooperation Treaty applications, and 48 national stage filings were submitted. In partnership with Arizona State University, the University of Arizona, California Polytechnic State University, and Texas A&M University, a total of 27 multidisciplinary projects were conducted with input from multispecialty engineers and scientists. These efforts translated into 1 startup company and 2 licensed patents to commercial companies, with most remaining ideas and project efforts awaiting interest from industry. CONCLUSIONS: The multidisciplinary collaborative environment embodied by the Barrow Innovation Center has revolutionized the innovative and entrepreneurial environment of its home institution and enabled neurosurgical residents to get a unique educational experience within the realm of innovation. The bottleneck within the workflow of ideas from conception to commercialization appears to be the establishment of commercial partners; therefore, future efforts within the center will be to establish a panel of industry partnerships to enhance the exposure of ideas to interested companies

Animals and Cotswold-Severn long-barrows: a re-examination.
No full textIn this paper new collaborative research is presented following a re-examination of the faunal remains and
architectural evidence from a selected number of Cotswold-Severn long barrow sites. Five different loci of
deposition are considered: ‘pre-barrow’ contexts; the chambers; the superstructure of the barrow and the
ditches; the forecourt; and blocking material. These spatial locations were chosen following research that has
demonstrated that these areas are likely to represent different temporal, as well as spatial, patterns of activity.
While the faunal remains are diverse in character, common themes observed at the sites include: the deposition
of complete or partial remains of foetal and young animals within chambers; the use of teeth and cranial
elements within blocking material; and, within each temporal context, the absence of clear evidence for feasting
and the importance of cattle, and the small but constant inclusion of wild mammals. This complexity of
practice has the potential to mature our thinking regarding the nature of human–animal relationships within
the early Neolithic of Britain and provide a secure foundation of evidence for subsequent interpretations
