Background A biomarker is a defined characteristic that is measured as an indicator of normal biological processes, pathogenic processes, or responses to an exposure or intervention, including therapeutic interventions. Biomarker modalities are diverse, and can include ‘omics, imaging, behavioral, digital and physiologic endpoints, as well as composite biomarkers or biomarker signatures. Becaus ...

OUSD (R&E) CRITICAL TECHNOLOGY AREA(S): Microelectronics; Quantum Science OBJECTIVE: An application-specific electronics package that enables low-noise miniaturization of quantum systems. DESCRIPTION: Quantum systems rely on electronics for control and signal input/output to larger systems. Often, these originate with large scale lab electronics, then are scaled down to field programmable gate ...

OUSD (R&E) CRITICAL TECHNOLOGY AREA(S): Quantum Science OBJECTIVE: Develop an application-specific photonic integrated circuit to serve a specific quantum system (e.g. Rydberg sensor, clock transition). The device should integrate into and be demonstrated with an already existing quantum sensor. DESCRIPTION: Quantum sensors have demonstrated the ability to surpass classical sensors in areas such ...
