Surgical trainingrequires an understanding of the human body’scomplex3-dimensional anatomical structures and thespatial relationships of nerves, blood vessels and othervital structures.Learningthesespatial skills requires a lengthy training period and much practicethat usually takes placein the operatingroom while under thesupervision of a senior surgeon atgreat financial cost and potential risk ...

We propose a high performance, cost-effective, universal Digital Assay Solutions platform with Mobile Readers, Assay Development and Calibration Software, and HIPAA-compliant cloud services for global health and defense applications. In Phase II project, we have developed the first generation product family receiving considerable interest from the assay manufacturers, government organizations and ...

The confluence of genetics, mobile computing, wearable sensors and computational physiology has started the revolution in personalized medicine with huge civilian and military prospects to promote health and reduce costs. The goal of this project is to develop and demonstrate a Warfighter Health Avatar (WHA): a framework and physiology based modeling tools of a warfighter body to enable assessment ...

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 ...

A key bottleneck to be addressed in regenerative medicine is hypothermic preservation of cells and tissues, which has been shown to extend survival of cell and tissue-based therapies by decreasing ischemic effect. However, preservation technology is aged, toxic and less effective than desired with typical cell survival post-thaw below 50% and unreliable potency. Current technology greatly hinders ...

DTRA uses High Fidelity Computer Codes (HFCC) to investigate weapon effects and techniques for countering Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD). End-to-end HFCC simulations in support of the DTRA Agent Defeat Warfighter Capability will require calculations including multiple phenomena that occur in vastly different time scales (µ-sec to hours). As DTRA becomes increasingly reliant on computational mo ...

To address the scarcity of effective treatments for volumetric muscle loss injuries, we propose a novel aligned multilumen nanofibrillar collagen scaffold loaded with Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF) modified messenger RNA (mmRNA) to direct functional muscl

EP Analytics Inc. will develop and commercialize a suite of easy-to-use performance profiling and prediction tools for characterizing the performance and energy efficiency of High Fidelity computer codes. DTRA uses High Fidelity codes to investigate weapon effects phenomenology and techniques for countering Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD). End-to-end High Fidelity simulations in support of the D ...

Strategic Operations is noted for its rapid prototyping, manufacturing, distribution, and training capabilities; while Vcom3D is a leader in developing and fielding highly effective game-based learning products. The transition from R&D to manufacturing the Blended VR/Manikin Humeral Head IO Trainer for the Army and other military service use and commercialization to the civilian market will be se ...

Moby.Read is aa tablet-based speech recognition app that grade school students use to administer oral-reading fluency assessments in real-time. The app is intended to replace face-to-face oral reading assessments done by teachers, and to save time and increase the accuracy of the assessment. Through the teacher dashboard, Moby.Read will aggregate assessment results at the class and individual stud ...
