Fair Value Measurements [Abstract]

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The following tables present the major security types we held at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 that we regularly measure and carry at fair value. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, a portion of our ProQR investment was subject to trading restrictions that extend to the fourth quarter of 2020; as a result, we included a lack of marketability discount in valuing this investment, which is a Level 3 input. The amount we owned in ProQR did not change from December 31, 2019 to June 30, 2020. The tables below segregate each security type by the level within the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques we utilized to determine the respective securities’ fair value (in thousands):
