COMMUNITY CATALYST VACCINE EQUITY AND ACCESS PROGRAM (VEAP) - VACCINATION IS A HIGHLY EFFECTIVE PUBLIC HEALTH INTERVENTION THAT, WHERE ACCESSIBLE, PREVENTS INFECTION AND THE SPREAD OF ILLNESS, SAVING MILLIONS OF LIVES EVERY YEAR. HOWEVER, PERMEATING RACIAL INEQUITIES IN HEALTH CARE, LIVING AND WORKING CONDITIONS, AND ECONOMIC MOBILITY ACROSS THE COUNTRY, COMBINED WITH AN INHERENT DISTRUST OF THE VERY SYSTEMS THAT CREATE AND REINFORCE THESE INEQUITIES, HAVE RESULTED IN A NUMBER OF HEALTH DISPARITIES?INCLUDING IN ADULT VACCINATION RATES?BETWEEN WHITE PEOPLE AND PEOPLE OF COLOR IN THE UNITED STATES. COMMUNITY CATALYST?S VACCINE EQUITY AND ACCESS PROGRAM (VEAP) WILL SELECT AND EQUIP 75 COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS SERVING A DIVERSE RANGE OF AMERICAN INDIAN/ALASKA NATIVE, AFRICAN AMERICAN/BLACK, ASIAN AMERICAN, HISPANIC/LATINX AMERICAN AND NATIVE HAWAIIAN AND PACIFIC ISLANDER COMMUNITIES, TO BUILD VACCINE CONFIDENCE AMONG COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND SUPPORT RELATIONSHIP BUILDING BETWEEN COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND LOCAL PROVIDERS THAT ENABLE BOTH SHORT TERM BOOSTS IN COVID-19 VACCINATION AND LONGER-TERM INCREASES IN ADULT INFLUENZA VACCINATIONS. THE PROGRAM WILL ACHIEVE THESE GOALS BY: TRAINING TRUSTED COMMUNITY LEADERS TO ACT AS AMBASSADORS FOR VACCINE CONFIDENCE; IDENTIFYING OPPORTUNITIES FOR COLLABORATION AND PARTNERSHIP AMONG COMMUNITY MEMBERS, COMMUNITY SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS, AND PROVIDERS; PROVIDING MESSAGING TO SUPPORT VACCINATION AND COMBAT HARMFUL MYTHS; AND DEVELOPING BROAD VACCINE CONFIDENCE NETWORKS THAT SUSTAIN SUPPORT FOR VACCINE EDUCATION AND ACCESS IN THE LONG-TERM.

SBIR PHASE II: ENZYME STABILIZATION VIA IMMOBILIZATION FOR ADVANCED CHEMICAL MANUFACTURING -THE BROADER/COMMERCIAL IMPACT OF THIS SMALL BUSINESS INNOVATION RESEARCH (SBIR) PHASE II PROJECT ENABLES A LOWER COST AND SCALABLE SOLUTION FOR BIOMANUFACTURING USING LONG-LASTING AND HIGHER PERFORMING ENZYMES. THIS IS DONE THROUGH A PROPRIETARY POLYMERIZATION TECHNIQUE TO CREATE POLYMER BRUSHES THAT STABILIZE ENZYMES AS THEY ARE USED TO CATALYZE CHEMICAL PROCESSES. THE CHEMICALS INDUSTRY RELIES HEAVILY ON INEFFICIENT PROCESSES OFTEN LEADING TO OFFSHORING OF CRITICAL MANUFACTURING. IN CONTRAST, BIOMANUFACTURING, WHICH LEVERAGES NATURE?S MACHINERY, EFFICIENTLY PRODUCES A WIDE RANGE OF CRITICAL CHEMICALS THROUGH THE USE OF MICROBES OR ENZYMES. WHILE ENZYMES ARE USED TODAY, THEY ARE TYPICALLY TOO SHORT-LIVED AND EXPENSIVE. THE PROPOSED ENZYME IMMOBILIZATION TECHNOLOGY MAKES ANY ENZYME STABLE AND LONG LASTING FOR INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS. THIS PROJECT WILL ADDRESS CHALLENGES WITH INCREASING THE BATCH SIZE TO 100KG AND ENABLE FURTHER INTERACTIONS WITH CUSTOMER ENZYME PROCESSES. THIS WORK WILL ALSO REDUCE THE UNIT COST THROUGH PROCESS INTENSIFICATION AND STATE-OF-THE-ART PROCESS MONITORING. ULTIMATELY, THIS WILL INCREASE THE ADOPTION OF ENZYMES IN MULTIPLE CHEMICAL PROCESSES, INCLUDING PHARMACEUTICALS AND FLAVORS AND FRAGRANCES, AND ALLOW ENZYMES TO GAIN MORE SHARE OF THE $40 BILLION CATALYST SPACE. THE INNOVATION WILL CONTRIBUTE TO THE UNITED STATES BY ON-SHORING CHEMICAL PRODUCTION THAT LEFT THE U.S. DUE TO HIGH ENVIRONMENTAL COSTS, WHILE STRENGTHENING SUPPLY CHAIN RESILIENCE THROUGH DOMESTIC PRODUCTION OF CRITICAL CHEMICALS. THIS SMALL BUSINESS INNOVATION RESEARCH (SBIR) PHASE II PROJECT WILL DEMONSTRATE THE MANUFACTURABILITY OF A HETEROGENEOUS POLYMER BRUSH DECORATED SURFACES THAT CAPTURE AND STABILIZE ENZYMES THROUGH ENGINEERED POLYMER-ENZYME INTERACTIONS. THE PROPOSED PHASE II EFFORTS BUILT UPON THE PHASE I WORK, WHICH MOVED THE MANUFACTURING FROM A FLASK TO A REACTOR AND ESTABLISHED QUALITY CONTROL, BY ADDRESSING PRODUCT VARIABILITY AND VALIDATING QUALITY IMPROVEMENTS WITH ADVANCED PROCESS MONITORING AND ANALYTICAL QUALITY CONTROL TECHNIQUES. THIS MANUFACTURING INVOLVES STATE-OF-THE-ART CONTROLLED RADICAL POLYMERIZATION PROCESSES THAT HAVE YET TO BE COMMERCIALIZED. A SYSTEMATIC AND ITERATIVE PROCESS INTENSIFICATION CAMPAIGN WILL INCREASE THE EFFICIENCY OF THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS AND REDUCE THE COSTS OF THIS POLYMER SCIENCE INNOVATION. THIS WILL CULMINATE IN SCALE-UP TO 100 KG PER RUN WITH THOROUGH QUALITY CONTROL ENABLING A COMMERCIALLY-RELEVANT SCALE FOR INITIAL TARGET CUSTOMERS. THE TEAM WILL FOCUS INITIALLY ON THE IMMOBILIZATION, PRODUCT VALIDATION, AND QUALITY CONTROL FOR A UNIQUE BIOCATALYST OFFERING, A HIGHER PERFORMING AND LOWER COST 1,3-REGIOSELECTIVE LIPASE WITH APPLICATIONS IN FOOD, FLAVORS AND FRAGRANCES, AND PERSONAL CARE PRODUCTS. THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.- SUBAWARDS ARE NOT PLANNED FOR THIS AWARD.

POSE: PHASE I: TOWARDS AN OPEN-SOURCE ENERGY DATA ECOSYSTEM -WITH THIS PATHWAYS FOR OPEN-SOURCE ECOSYSTEMS (POSE) PROJECT, CATALYST COOPERATIVE IS LAYING THE GROUNDWORK FOR AN OPEN-SOURCE ECOSYSTEM THAT PRODUCES FREELY AVAILABLE, OPENLY LICENSED, ANALYSIS-READY ENERGY SYSTEM DATA FOR USE BY RESEARCHERS, POLICYMAKERS, AND SMALL AND MEDIUM SIZED ENTERPRISES. THIS NEW ENERGY GRID WILL BE MORE DYNAMIC AND INTERACTIVE THAN THE ONE BUILT DURING THE 20TH CENTURY, MAKING COMPUTER MODELS AN INCREASINGLY IMPORTANT PART OF GRID PLANNING. UNFORTUNATELY, THE HIGH-QUALITY DATA THOSE MODELS WILL NEED TO ENSURE THAT THE ENERGY TRANSITION IS SMOOTH, EQUITABLE, AND COST-EFFECTIVE IS NOT CURRENTLY AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC, SLOWING PROGRESS AND EXCLUDING MANY STAKEHOLDERS. THIS NSF POSE PHASE I PROJECT BUILDS ON THE SUCCESS OF THE PUBLIC UTILITY DATA LIBERATION (PUDL) PROJECT, MAKING ITS GOVERNANCE, INFRASTRUCTURE, AND USER COMMUNITY MORE ROBUST SO THAT PUDL CAN ATTRACT AND RETAIN NEW USERS AND OPEN-SOURCE CONTRIBUTORS FROM A VARIETY OF DISCIPLINES. A VIBRANT OPEN-SOURCE ECOSYSTEM PRODUCING AND CURATING OPEN ENERGY SYSTEM DATA WILL REDUCE DUPLICATIVE DATA PREPARATION, INCREASE RESEARCH PRODUCTIVITY, IMPROVE REPRODUCIBILITY, AND MAKE IT EASIER FOR COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO SHARE BEST PRACTICES AND BUILD UPON EACH OTHER'S WORK. IN THIS POSE PHASE I PROJECT, CATALYST COOPERATIVE WILL CHART A PATH TOWARDS A SUSTAINABLE OPEN-SOURCE ECOSYSTEM MODEL AND ADDRESS FOUNDATIONAL BARRIERS TO OPEN-SOURCE CONTRIBUTIONS. THROUGH SURVEYS, IMPROVED USAGE TRACKING, AND COMMUNITY DISCUSSIONS, THE TEAM WILL SEEK TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THE RANGE OF POTENTIAL USERS OF OPEN-SOURCE ENERGY SYSTEM DATA IN THE U.S., THEIR MOTIVATIONS FOR CONTRIBUTING TO OR USING THE DATA, AND THE TECHNICAL OR INSTITUTIONAL BARRIERS WHICH MAY PREVENT THEM FROM DOING SO. THROUGH INTERACTIVE TUTORIALS, UNIVERSITY BROWN-BAGS, AND OTHER OUTREACH EFFORTS, THE PROJECT AIMS TO IDENTIFY ACCESSIBLE PATHWAYS FOR THOSE WITH ENERGY SYSTEM DOMAIN EXPERTISE TO ACQUIRE THE SOFTWARE AND DATA ENGINEERING SKILLS NEEDED TO COLLABORATE ACROSS DISCIPLINES IN A DISTRIBUTED OPEN-SOURCE ECOSYSTEM. AT THE SAME TIME, IMPROVING PUDL?S EXISTING SOFTWARE TESTING AND DATA VALIDATION FRAMEWORKS WILL ENSURE THAT CONTRIBUTORS CAN IMMEDIATELY UNDERSTAND THE IMPACTS OF ANY CHANGES THEY MAKE, AND CAN EASILY CONTRIBUTE WITHOUT NEGATIVELY IMPACTING DATA QUALITY. TO PLAN FOR A GROWING USER BASE, CATALYST COOPERATIVE IS ALSO IDENTIFYING APPROPRIATE GOVERNANCE MODELS FOR THE PROJECT THAT CAN HELP IT BECOME A SELF-SUSTAINING ECOSYSTEM. THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.- SUBAWARDS ARE NOT PLANNED FOR THIS AWARD.

SBIR PHASE I: ENZYME STABILIZATION VIA IMMOBILIZATION FOR ADVANCED CHEMICAL MANUFACTURING -THIS SMALL BUSINESS INNOVATION RESEARCH (SBIR) PHASE I PROJECT ENABLES ENVIRONMENTALLY SUSTAINABLE, LOW-CARBON, CHEMICAL MANUFACTURING WITH LONG-LASTING ENZYMES. THE CHEMICALS INDUSTRY RELIES HEAVILY ON UNSUSTAINABLE PETROCHEMICAL FEEDSTOCKS AS WELL AS ENERGY AND MATERIALS INEFFICIENT PROCESSES. NATURE RENEWABLY PRODUCES A DIVERSE ARRAY OF CHEMICALS AND MATERIALS, INCLUDING LUMBER FROM AIR AND SUNLIGHT AND LIFESAVING THERAPEUTICS LIKE PENICILLIN. BIOLOGY CREATES MOLECULES THROUGH THE POWER OF ENZYMES ? NATURE?S CATALYSTS. WHILE SOME ENZYMES HAVE BEEN LEVERAGED TO PRODUCE CHEMICALS, ENZYMES ARE TYPICALLY TOO SHORT LIVED AND EXPENSIVE TO CREATE SCALABLE, COST-EFFECTIVE CHEMICAL MANUFACTURING PROCESSES. THIS PROJECT WILL ALLOW ENZYMES TO GAIN MORE SHARE OF THE $40 BILLION CATALYST SPACE BY SCALING A PATENT-PENDING APPROACH TO KEEP ENZYMES LASTING LONGER, DECREASING THEIR COSTS SIGNIFICANTLY. THIS PROJECT WILL BE COMMERCIALIZED AS A HIGH-GROSS MARGIN, RECURRING REVENUE BUSINESS, SUPPORTING INDUSTRIAL GREEN CHEMISTRY. THE FIRST APPLICATION WILL BE THE PRODUCTION OF FLAVORS AND FRAGRANCE MOLECULES, RELATIVELY HIGH VALUE MOLECULES THAT ARE CURRENTLY PRODUCED IN UNSUSTAINABLE, POLLUTING PROCESSES. ULTIMATELY, THIS SOLUTION WILL EXTEND TO HIGHER VOLUME, LOWER VALUE CHEMICALS FOR LARGER REDUCTIONS IN ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION. FURTHERMORE, THE INNOVATION WILL CONTRIBUTE TO THE UNITED STATES BY ON-SHORING CHEMICAL MANUFACTURING PROCESSES THAT LEFT THE US DUE TO THE HIGH ENVIRONMENTAL COSTS. THIS SMALL BUSINESS INNOVATION RESEARCH (SBIR) PHASE I PROJECT WILL DEMONSTRATE THE COMMERCIAL FEASIBILITY AND SCALABILITY OF HETEROGENEOUS POLYMERS TO STABILIZE ENZYMES THROUGH ENGINEERED POLYMER-ENZYME INTERACTIONS. THE PHASE I RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT BUILDS ON THE TEAM?S PRIOR WORK ON ENZYME STABILIZATION IN INDUSTRIAL CHEMICAL MANUFACTURING AND WILL DEVELOP ULTRASTABLE ENZYMES TO REDUCE THE COST OF SUSTAINABLE MANUFACTURING OF FLAVORS AND FRAGRANCES. WHILE THIS TECHNOLOGY HAS BEEN DEMONSTRATED FOR SEVERAL EARLY CUSTOMERS AT THE LABORATORY SCALE, A PARTICULAR FOCUS OF THIS PROJECT IS THE SCALE UP OF THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS. THIS MANUFACTURING INVOLVES STATE-OF-THE-ART CONTROLLED RADICAL POLYMERIZATION PROCESSES THAT HAVE YET TO BE COMMERCIALIZED. TRADITIONALLY, APPROACHES TO SUSTAINABLE CHEMICAL MANUFACTURING STRUGGLE WITH SCALABILITY AND UNIT COSTS, AND THEREFORE, THIS PROJECT AIMS TO DE-RISK SCALE AND COST EARLIER IN COMMERCIALIZATION. WHILE THIS SCALE-UP WILL BE DONE EARLIER IN COMMERCIALIZATION, IT IS DONE IN COLLABORATION WITH EXISTING CUSTOMERS TO ENSURE THE PRODUCTS AT SCALE PROVIDE VALUE TO THE COMPANIES PRODUCING FINE CHEMICALS. THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.- SUBAWARDS ARE NOT PLANNED FOR THIS AWARD.
