Infections caused by drug resistant bacteria create a $30b problem for the healthcare industry. Techulon has developed a Rapidly Adaptable NanoTherapeutic (RANT) approach to address this problem, which utilizes genomic targeting, on-demand synthesis, and nanotherapeutic delivery. Component feasibility studies conducted during Phase I demonstrated successful targeting and inhibition levels in meth ...

Current data collection is growing faster than our ability to store and analyze it. Soon, data streams of 100Gb/s will be common. These data will need to be processed as they arrive. New statistical methods for incremental analysis are needed. We propose an approach called Robust Representation which will bound the analytical processing by setting upper bounds based on the available processing ...

There is a need to achieve 10^-9 reliability for actuators for critical aerospace applications and this precludes single point failure for all but the simplest and most reliable electrical and mechanical components. LC Drives proposes a method of constructing a high reliability linear actuator for critical aerospace applications that is designed such that jams caused by conventional electrical a ...

The future of conflict, crisis, and development will rely on high-resolution data at every stage of assessment, guidance, and evaluation of projects. Aggregate 30,000 foot statistics are no longer sufficient for sophisticated and efficient project planning and management. A new data collection interface is needed, with tools for determining information needs, stating questions, and administering ...

IN-Comics is created by veteran software makers at Intific, Inc. as an innovative online graphic novel and sequential art authoring technology for therapeutic storytelling. The complete system offers a new integrated approach to art therapy using unique 3D digital storytelling tools to make Creators out of all service personnel, enabling visual products that run the gamut from traditional graphic ...

Among the factors that inhibit the use of composite materials in both general aviation aircraft and DoD platforms are the high cost of engineering and the cost of certification. Unless manufacturers can control risk when introducing new materials and pro

The scientific/technical objective is to develop a language that will allow for seamless insertion of new RF devices and capabilities into EW/ISR networks. We achieve these requirements by employing subject matter experts that include former EW officers

Gravitational radiation is detected by its effect of rotating the polarization vectors of a high number N of entangled photons exhibiting quantum nonlinear geometric phase and the Klyshko effect for NOON states in a Michelson interferometer. The gravitati

An existing binary static analyzer will be enhanced to provide both exploit protections and anti-memory-tampering defenses via static rewriting rules. A binary static analyzer will accept the original binary and the rewriting rules and produce a new, protected binary. Formal theorem-proving methods will be used to verify that the security instrumentation does not alter correct execution of the pro ...

Looking Glass is an immersive, story-driven game experience that enables computer science education for students K-12. It presents learning in a game-based series of challenge levels that permit a high degree of player choice in tailoring educational progression and adapting game systems that present both STEM and SEL interactions. Gameplay occurs within a futuristic Wonderland, where proficiency ...
