Nasa’s Technology Transfer Program Solicits Inquiries From Companies Interested In Obtaining License Rights To Commercialize, Manufacture And Market The Following Technology. License Rights May Be Issued On An Exclusive Or Nonexclusive Basis And May Include Specific Fields Of Use. Nasa Provides No Funding In Conjunction With These Potential Licenses. the Technology: innovators At Nasa Johnson Space Center Researching Time-variance Magnetic Field (tvmf) Therapies Have Developed A Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (pemf) Device That Can Alleviate Cartilage Degradation In Synovial Joints By Promoting The Growth Of New Cartilage. Joint Disorders, Whether Induced By Rheumatism, Joint Dysplasia, Trauma, Or Surgery, Often Degrade Cartilage And Result In Intense Patient Pain. Noninvasive And Painless Regeneration Of A Patient’s Own Tissue Offers Fewer Side-effects Than Surgical Joint Replacement Or Tissue Engineering Procedures. The Pemf Device Could Simply Be Wrapped Around Synovial Joints Where Cartilage-degrading Inflammation Is Located. This Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Technology Is At A Technology Readiness Level (trl) 6 (system/sub-system Model Or Prototype Demonstration In An Operational Environment) And The Related Patent Is Available For Licensing. Please Note That Nasa Does Not Manufacture Products Itself For Commercial Sale. to Express Interest In This Opportunity, Please Submit A License Application Through Nasa’s Automated Technology Licensing Application System (atlas) By Visiting Https://technology.nasa.gov/patent/msc-tops-96 if You Have Any Questions, Please E-mail Nasa’s Technology Transfer Program At Agency-patent-licensing@mail.nasa.gov With The Title Of This Technology Transfer Opportunity As Listed In This Sam.gov Notice And Your Preferred Contact Information.
