NIH Solicitations – April 2011

Center for Inherited Disease Research (CIDR) High Throughput Genotyping and Sequencing Resource Access (X01) — With the continued advances in our ability to detect human genetic variation, there is great interest in applying state-of-the-art technology to find genetic elements important in human health and disease. For many studies this requires high-throughput genotyping technologies that cannot be efficiently carried out in individual investigator laboratories.   CIDR fulfills this need for many kinds of projects including whole genome association studies (GWAS); gene searches using next-generation sequencing technology and high-throughput custom genotyping.

Navy Solicitations – April 2011

Advanced Tactical Data Link (ATDL)– Military tactical mission requirements include distributed Command and Control (C2), Situational Awareness (SA), navigation, and Cooperative Integrated Fire Control (CIFC). It is critical to collaborate, coordinate and rapidly disseminate combat ID, classification and target assignments across shooters, sensors and weapons. Headway has been made; however, there is an urgent need for increased connectivity and capacity between the tactical and airborne domain to exploit complementary C2, Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) and targeting for greater mission effectiveness.

FDA Solicitations – April 2011

Sources Sought: Stent Implantation Project — Millions of medical device implants are inserted into patients every year and prematurely fail because of material fatigue. Furthering understanding of the fracture of materials commensurate with development of test methods for evaluating fractures in medical devices will advance regulatory science and improved medical safety. As a result of recent approval by Office of Regulatory Affairs (ORA) to expand Winchester Engineering and Analytical Center’s (WEAC) collaborative stent project with Massachusetts Institution of Technology (MIT), Read more

NASA Solicitations – April 2011

The Silicon Valley Earth Science Cooperative Agreement —  NASA’s  Ames Research Center(ARC) is releasing a Cooperative Agreement Notice for The Silicon Valley Earth Science Cooperative Agreement (SiVESC). ARC and the Recipient will collaborate to further NASA’s objectives in Earth science, including improved observations and measurements, as well as data analysis and information product generation. Under this agreement, ARC and Recipient will cooperatively carry out experimental, analytical, and theoretical research in support of NASAs strategic earth science objectives relating to: Fundamental science questions on all aspects of the Earth system: the atmosphere, the biosphere, the oceans, and the solid Earth; Read more
