Neural Correlates of Real World Spatial Navigation in Humans
The purpose of this study is to understand the neural mechanisms that support real world spatial navigation in humans using deep brain recordings and stimulation during virtual reality (VR), augmented reality, and real world memory tasks. We will determine the cognitive (i.e., memory) and behavioral (i.e., body, head, eye position …

Human Recombinant Interferon Gamma in the Treatment of Ventilator-acquired Pneumonia in ICU Patients
Clinical presentation of patients after severe injury such as a severe infection, trauma or extensive burns is characterized by the simultaneous occurrence of dysregulation of the initial inflammatory response and immunosuppression associating quantitative and functional alterations of innate and adaptive immune cells. These acquired immune dysfunctions have been associated with …

HepB mAb19 in Individuals With Chronic Hepatitis B Infection
This is a first-in-human, placebo-controlled, single dose, dose-escalation phase 1 study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics and antiviral activity of a highly potent neutralizing anti-HBV monoclonal antibody (mAb), HepB mAb19, which targets the S-protein in individuals with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) on nucleos(t)ide analog therapy (NRTI).
VATS Decortication Versus IR Guided Chest Tube Insertion With Fibrinolytics for the Management of Empyema
The American Association of Thoracic Surgery defines empyema as pus in the pleural space. It is a common thoracic surgery presentation with an estimated 65,000 cases occurring annually in the United States. Despite the high prevalence of empyemas, there has been no consensus as to its optimal first line management. …
Use of a Putty as Gap Filler in Open-wedge Osteotomy
Rationale: Realignment osteotomies around the knee are a proven surgical treatment for unicompartmental knee osteoarthritis and a malalignment. Osteotomies can be very painful in the early postoperative phase. This is probably due to a combination of bony cut (bone pain) and postoperative hematoma (bleeding and leakage of the bone marrow) …
