Technologies and discoveries with the potential to make a difference in everyday lives lined the tables and booths at Princeton University's 10th annual Celebrate Princeton Innovation reception. Over 300 guests attended the event Thursday, Nov. 8, at the Frick Chemistry Laboratory.

Among the technologies on display: A genetic test that can determine your dog's sociability level, a system for providing fast Wi-Fi downloads for people on the go, a low-cost water purification system, and a new screening platform for new drugs to treat hepatitis. (See the full list of faculty inventors and their technologies below.)

Each year, the campus hosts the reception to honor University inventors and their research teams, and to bring campus researchers together with the external community of entrepreneurs, investors, industry partners, business organizations and others who participate in the innovation ecosystem in New Jersey.
