In today's modern world, it is common to hear about diseases that you'd never heard a decade ago. A number of these newly discovered diseases are well understood and treated, but many others are still incurable. Some of them are lethal, while others are not. Still, they've been affecting the way people live today. Here's a bit more about some horrible and even life-threatening diseases. 1 Schizophrenia 2 Ebola 3 Polio 4 Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease 5 Diabetes 6 AIDS 7 Asthma 8 Cancer 9 Progeria  Source:http://www.enkivillage.com/incurable-diseases.html

The Fung Institute is developing several tools to aid in the discovery of patents around a common technology or application. Leveraging advances in machine learning and automated content analysis, the Patent Discovery Project scans a set of hand-coded “training patents” and then finds a range of similar patents based on the similarity of patent abstracts and patent claims. These tools can be used by researchers to identify a broad population of patents for study from a smaller set of known cases, significantly reducing the search time of researchers in finding related patents. The first application of the Patent Discovery Project is a tool that investigates the emergence of Clean Technologies in the U.S. Patent data. After identifying patents (as described above), the exploration tool below  allows users to filter through and browse patents by cluster, technology, and type of patent assignee. Clean Tech Patent Discovery Tool

quantalyz e is a data analytics tech­nology specializing in quan­tity recognition, unit con­version and range searching. It analyzes do­cument full text and complete table content. Searchers are em­powered to locate the deep value in a given data set that could not pre­viously be found. Quantalyze annotation component Units: Detects and annotates over 10,000 different units in your documents. Units are associated with context (melting point, boiling point, etc.) Numeric Ranges : Detects individual numbers or numeric ranges, whether digits or text and associates them with the appropriate unit. Even open intervals are found easily. Unit Conversion: Performs automatic unit conversions, e.g., a search for Fahrenheit includes all Celsius and Fahrenheit results. Table Semantics: Understands the semantics of tables and enables searching all its content. Its a must to try tool.    

Patent Co-Inventor Network Visualization Tool enable us to visualize a particular type of connection among inventors: those who have filed a patent together, and therefore have worked closely together on at least one project. There are a number of reasons this could be useful: You might want to know which companies were major players in a technological field, in an intuitive, visual way. You might start with an inventor and want to know who she collaborated with at an important juncture in her career. Was she a loner? Immersed in a dense web of inventors working on similar topics? At the periphery of the field, or a key figure connecting several networks? You might be curious about ways that a field (or inventor's career) changed over time. Comparing several social networks representing different periods can visualize these changes. The goal is to be able to see around a given technological field in an intuitive way, quickly and easily.

Octimine Tool is very useful in identifying most similar patents Enter any free text (e.g. Wikipedia article, invention´s description, scientific publication) or the publication number of a patent and retrieve high quality results. In only a few seconds, the top most similar documents will be clearly presented and ranked by relevance so that patent researches get a very quick impression about the requested patent activity. Export your result in CSV, Excel or PDF and easily share them with your colleagues for a better coordination. Take a look at our tutorial video! Source: https://www.octimine.com/
