A control system controls an endoscope probe in manual mode or robot mode. The system comprises a handle attached to the probe; a portable display controller connectable to the handle; a robotic controller in communication with the handle and/or the portable display controller; and a support platform to which the probe and the portable device controller are attachable according to control mode. In manual mode, the handle is detached from the platform and connected to the portable display controller such that the probe is manually navigated to a first position inside a lumen. In robot mode, the handle is attached to the platform such that the robotic controller cooperates with the handle to robotically navigate the probe to a second position inside the lumen. The portable display controller includes a control section for manipulating the probe and a display section for displaying images of the lumen acquired in both modes.

The present disclosure generally relates to compositions and method for delivery, e.g., sustained delivery of active agents, and their use for the treatment of diseases or disorders.

Nanofiber scaffolds

Provided herein are polymeric particles and compounds and processes that can be used to prepare polymer-based particles and methods of using those particles to localize or concentrate a subsequently delivered agent to an in vivo site.

Polymeric depots for localization of agent to biological sites

A compliant composite for delivering a bioactive agent including a scaffolding material and a polymer coating that together can be attached to compliant tissue surfaces is disclosed, along with methods for constructing and applying these composites. In some embodiments, the composite further comprises a barrier layer for localized delivery of the bioactive agent.

Compliant composites for application of drug-eluting coatings to tissue surfaces

Described herein are compounds and processes that can be used to prepare polymer-based films, particles, gels and related compositions, and processes for delivery of agents, and other uses.
