ABSTRACTSubstance use disordersSUDsincluding opioid use disorderscontinue to be one of the most serious public health issues in the USleading to negative physical and mental health problemsfamily disruptionand premature deathAfrican Americans with drug use histories that are under criminal justice supervision are particularly vulnerable to experiencing the negative consequences associated with SUD ...

Project Summary Galactic Core LLC aims to develop a robust, scalable, and managed service for performing enterprise-grade biomedical data analysis. The service will be based on the popular open-source Galaxy application (​https://galaxyproject.org/​), offering unlimited data storage and compute capabilities with an extremely powerful, flexible, and collaborative environment for analyzing data. ...

AbstractIf there were a simple and accurate means totake the pulseof a toothi efunctionally similar to a pulse oximeter that could be clipped on a tooth rather than the tip of a fingerthe quality and cost of dental care would be significantly improvedThe ability to measure dental pulp blood flow provides the most direct means to determine the viability of a tooth and is a vital piece of informatio ...

Project Summary Abstract The brain is by far the most complex and heterogeneous organ in the human bodyFor yearsthere has been a growing and unmet need to develop multielectrode arrays for neurotransmitter sensing in multiple brain regions simultaneouslyDisparate brain regions such as the nucleus accumbensstriatumprefrontal cortexhippocampusand others have been widely known to have greatly varying ...

Accurate prediction heat transfer in gas turbine components subject to cooling requires high fidelity modeling of heat transfer in the presence of high Reynolds number turbulent flow. The cooling internal to the blades results in sustained temperature gradients within the structural parts, from low temperature in the interior of the structure to increasingly higher temperature closer to the surfac ...

The requirements for thermal management on tactical aircraft systems have reached a level at which integrated system design must be considered early in the aircraft design process. An integrated propulsion, power and thermal modeling and simulation design approach is necessary for reduced size, weight and power requirements. At the same time, there is an urgent need for capabilities that enable an ...

Current mission planning systems allow strike planners and operations centers to perform time-sensitive strike planning, execution monitoring, and validate mission effects using XML-based tools that visualize time critical attack plan and track plan status vs. execution. In this proposed STTR Phase I design for the Next Generation Navy Mission Planning (NGNMPS) system, we will identify expanded op ...

Effective and efficient data-driven mission support is crucial for achieving readiness and superiority in warfighting enterprises. Leveraging machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) in mission planning would not only minimize the human-error factors and increase accuracy, but also improve speed in planning, execution, and evaluation of a mission. REVAMP will improve the next generat ...

The Southeast XLerator Network proposes to create a networked and easily accessible regional technology transfer accelerator hub (“XLerator Hub” or “Hub”) to share best practices, disseminate education content, and offer products, services, facilities and other resources connected through both physical and online platforms for innovators and trainees in the Southeast IDeA states. Led by XL ...
