The National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) awarded a $130,600 Project Grant under the Discovery and Applied Research for Technological Innovations to Improve Human Health program (CFDA 93.286) to Marian University Inc. The project, titled "Advancing Wakefulness Screening of Sleep Apnea Disorder Through Breathing Sound Analysis and Hardware Optimization," aims to enhance a wakefulness-based sleep apnea screening tool that utilizes breathing sound analysis to assess sleep apnea risk. The project seeks to refine the tool's algorithm, improve its classification accuracy, and optimize the hardware to create a non-invasive, objective, and accessible screening method, particularly for underserved populations with limited access to traditional sleep studies. The project period runs from August 4, 2025 to July 31, 2027.
