The innovation of this proposal is to use a non-toxic, larger… more
Abstract:DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is uniformly fatal once resistance to platinum based therapy (Pt) is observed. Innate resistance is observed in approximately 25% of the nearly 22,000 annual cases of EOC, where the cancer is intrinsically refractory to Pt therapy.… more
Abstract:DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Platinum based agents (Pt) are the most commonly prescribed chemotherapeutics used in the treatment of solid tumors and are part of the curative treatment regimen for testicular cancer. While front line Pt therapy forlung cancer is often initially effective,… more
Abstract:This Small Business Innovation Research Phase I project aims to develop large-scale manufacturing methods for inorganic semiconductor nanowires, specifically CdSe nanowires. An automated pilot reactor will be designed and built that will allow a reduction in materials cost and an improvement in the… more
Abstract:The key requirements of high energy acoustics within aerial IED detection and neutralization systems are size, weight, high SPL output and a consistent sound source. This SBIR submission addresses these needs and is aimed at providing such sources. The baseline approach for this project is to… more
Abstract:An investigation of wideband high frequency radio transmissions will be performed when ionospheric skywave propagation, or near vertical incidence skywave propagation, is utilized. The characteristics of the channel will be examined as a function of the operating frequency, polarization, and time of… more
Abstract:DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): With recent technical advances, multiple important signaling pathways that may be the causes of human malignancy have continuously been discovered and dissected. The vast majority of these signaling pathways involve reversible protein phosphorylation, and the… more

Abstract:DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Emphysema is a prevalent chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) induced predominantly by cigarette smoking through a complex mechanism that includes excessive apoptotic cell death of alveolar lung structural cellsand chronic inflammation and for which there… more
Abstract:This proposal seeks to develop novel, widely tunable bandstop filters for the suppression of co-site interference in next generation phased array radar and electronic warfare systems. The filters are based upon highly loaded evanescent mode cavity resonators that are integrated into standard printed… more
Abstract:DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): In comparison to standard x-ray therapy, proton therapy allows an increased dose of radiation to a tumor and by reducing the amount of radiation to healthy tissue. As a result, it provides the best possible option for using radiation to control and eliminate… more

There are several categories such as “By Agency”, “By Year”, “By State” etc.
Select a checkbox within a category to refine your search results.
Each of your selections is listed in the “Narrow Search Filters” bar. You can uncheck these selections to remove them.
Search for Either Criteria
When you select multiple values within a category, the results will include values that match either of the selections.
For example, selecting “2005” and “2007” in the “By Year” category will display results that include either 2005 OR 2007 in the results.
Narrowing the Search Results
You can refine your search results across categories. To narrow down your results, select multiple values across different categories. The results will only include values that match the selections across the categories.
For example, selecting “2005” in the “By Year” category and “NASA” in the “By Agency” category will only display the results that contain both “2005” AND “NASA” in the results.
