The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase I project pertains to the critical need for pharmacologic treatments in large populations that suffer from coronary artery disease and that are subjected to procedures such as angioplasty or bypass surgery. While effective in correcting the reduced flow of blood to the heart tissue, these interventions ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase I project is a significant improvement in the accuracy of weather forecasts by increasing the refresh rate of sea wind measurements ten-fold. This forecast improvement will increase the economic competitiveness of the United States by improving efficiency in maritime, agriculture, and logistics industri ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase I project is that the proposed delivery system will advance many RNA therapeutic solutions to address intimal hyperplasia (IH) and other vascular conditions. Vascular disease is the most common disease pathology in the US, costing the country’s healthcare system over $437 billion dollars annually. Bec ...

The Broader impact of this Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase I project is to intercepting landfill-destined carbon fiber – designated as off-spec fibers - and repurpose it into sustainable nonwoven fabrics. Off-spec carbon fiber constitutes 30% of carbon fiber production. These sustainable fabrics will be categorized based on their performance characteristics into multiple tiers th ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this STTR project addresses a paradox faced by ‘open web’ developers, users, and regulators: the use of centralized platform-creator hosted web portals to interact with an evolving decentralized finance (DeFi) application ecosystem. The proposed work will instrument a new open web paradigm that will improve user accessibility and ability to compose an ...

The broader impact of this Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase I project will be reduced incidence of infections and outbreaks from Salmonella, one of the most frequently reported bacterial causes of food-borne illness in the US. Each year Salmonella causes over 1.35 M illnesses and 26,500 hospitalizations, with 20 percent of infections attributable to poultry. Given that the number of ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase I project is to empower individuals to thrive in a world of innovative disruption through the development of an enduring, data-driven, ready-access digital service that will assist learners to identify opportunity pathways throughout a lifetime of learning and employment. Completion of this project and ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is improved children’s mental and behavioral health via the creation of a platform that unifies the silos of healthcare and education to put children and families first.Due in part to the current pandemic, there is an increased need to support children’s mental and behavioral health.The en ...

The broader impact / commercial potential of this Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase I project is to develop completely new technology for extended-release drugs. More than half of people told to take medicine just twice daily have trouble remembering to take both doses on time, and some drugs require dosing three- or four- times daily. This NSF project aims to create a new drug deliv ...

The broader impacts/commercial potential of this Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase I project is to investigate novel noninvasive methods for detecting and quantifying material in the upper esophagus. Reflux occurs when a bolus of gastric contents flows in reverse from the stomach into the esophagus. Symptoms of reflux can include chronic cough, choking, difficulty breathing or swallo ...
