In order to meet the Defense Health Agencys need for addressing the prevention of secondary brain injury from moderate, severe and penetrating traumatic brain injury (TBI), ChromoLogic proposes to develop a cerebral trauma recovery (CereTRec) drug delivery system. In particular, CereTRec aims to treat TBI during prolonged field care (PFC) to stabilize casualties who sustain a moderate-severe TBI. ...

To effectively counter Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) we must be able to accurately and sensitively detect the sites of WMD development. While the reagents and byproducts of nuclear activity may be rapidly depleted from environmental sites, those transient perturbations leave a lasting mark on the resident microbial communities by promoting and restricting the growth of different microorganisms ...

In prior research and development, the project team developed PocketLab, a set of web-based hands-on science simulations for middle school classrooms. With this Phase I funding, the team will develop and test a prototype of CloudLab, a classroom management platform to extend the functionality of PocketLab. The prototype will include a portal so that a class of students can collaborate on experimen ...

With the advent of high-density low-power sub-20nm technology processes and circuits with tens-of-billions of transistors, radiation-induced single-event effects present a new set of design challenges for terrestrial applications. Developing reliable single-event effect resilient microelectronics in these modern technology nodes is a resource and time-intensive endeavor that further requires valid ...

Complete human anatomy avatars have a broad future role in advanced training environments, providing, for example, medically correct immersive experiences, performance-related physiological modeling studies, and in simulations for the purpose of designing protective armor. USARIEM have created individualized avatars as 3-D tetrahedral Finite Element (FE) meshes with full labeled anatomy, fitted to ...

Toyon Research proposes to develop a Thermal Desorption tube sampling system, capable of meeting the requirements stated in the project solicitation: a programmable interface that allows adjusting sampling system operation in situ; a mechanical design that supports replacing used tubes to support indefinite sampling periods; and an approach for receiving trigger signals from a real-time sensor. Ba ...

The goal of this STTR effort is to design a portable, multimodal, non-contact imaging system for burn depth diagnosis and tracking of wound healing. UC and Vanderbilt University will build upon our previous efforts demonstrated via porcine model studies to combine results from structural B-mode optical coherence tomography (OCT) images and functional data (pulse speckle imaging- PSI) to classify d ...

The objective of project is to develop a solution that allows doctors, nurses, medics and other healthcare providers to interact with the Electronic Health Record (EHR) in a hands-free manner, while keeping hands completely free to work with patients. Tod

In order to meet Defense Health Agencys need for anatomically correct, self-healing, synthetic tissues for surgical training, ChromoLogic proposes to develop synthetically formulated anatomically correct tissues (SYNFACT). Surgical training models will be selected for fabrication on the SYNFACT system GUI and fabricated on site. SYNFACT surgical training models will self-heal between uses for reus ...

In order to meet Defense Health Agency’s need for rapid confirmation and evaluation of open globe injuries, to allow for appropriate initial triage, evacuation, and treatments, ChromoLogic LLC (CL) proposes to develop an Ocular Penetrating/Perforating inj
