This SBIR Phase I grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (TIP) program (CFDA 47.084) is for the development of an advanced wound care product to treat diabetic foot ulcers. Therapeutic Bandage Products, Inc. will receive $305,000 to develop a patented microneedle bandage that delivers three therapeutic agents to disinfect the wound, prevent biofilm formation, and activate the immune system. This innovative product has significant...
This $400,000 National Science Foundation project grant supports research at Tufts University aimed at understanding the impact of aging on wound healing processes. Specifically, the grant funds two years of research to determine the effects of microgravity on fibroblast phenotype and wound healing response across tissue types and developmental ages. Investigators will leverage the unique environment of the International Space Station to simulate aging processes and their influence on tissue...
This $100,000 National Science Foundation project grant supports the development of a novel multi-wavelength spectroscopy technique and portable analyzer to assess tissue health at Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station in College Station, Texas. The goal is to prevent pressure injuries through early detection by evaluating tissue oxygenation and blood perfusion beneath the skin's surface, which could help hospitals decrease injury rates and costs. The proposed technology may identify...
This $350,000 National Science Foundation project grant supports research at the University of Virginia from October 1, 2022 to September 30, 2025 under the NSF Engineering program (CFDA 47.041). The research aims to advance understanding of the effects of microgravity on wound healing processes by leveraging a sensor-integrated 3D tissue culture model. Specifically, the project will explore dynamic changes in gene and protein expression, endothelial network formation, and extracellular matrix...
