PROVISION OF FULL ACCESS HOME BASED CONFIDENTIAL HIV COUNSELING AND TESTING

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES SUBSTANCE ABUSE AND MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES ADMINISTRATION COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH CENTERS GRANT PROGRAM - THE PRAIRIE RIDGE COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH CENTERS GRANT PROGRAM WILL FOCUS ON RESTORING AND SUPPORTING DELIVERY OF CLINICAL SERVICES THAT WERE IMPACTED BY THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC AND WILL WORK TO ADDRESS THE NEEDS OF INDIVIDUALS WITH SEVERE EMOTIONAL DISTURBANCE (SED), SERIOUS MENTAL ILLNESS (SMI) AND INDIVIDUALS WITH SMI OR SED AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS, REFERRED TO AS CO-OCCURRING DISORDER (COD). INDIVIDUALS SERVED WILL INCLUDE ADULTS WITH SEVERE MENTAL HEALTH DISORDERS, CHILDREN WHO HAVE A DIAGNOSABLE MENTAL , BEHAVIORAL, OR EMOTIONAL DISORDER, AND/OR INDIVIDUALS EXPERIENCING A MENTAL HEALTH CONDITION WITH A CO-OCCURRING SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER. THE GEOGRAPHIC FOCUS OF THE PROJECT INCLUDES AN 8-COUNTY AREA IN NORTHERN IOWA, INCLUDING THE COUNTIES OF CERRO GORDO, FLOYD, MICHELL, WORTH, WINNEBAGO, KOSSUTH, HANCOCK AND FRANKLIN. THE TOTAL POPULATION OF THE 8-COUNTY AREA, AS DOCUMENTED BY THE U.S. CENSUS 2018 AMERICAN COMMUNITY 5 YEAR SURVEY, IS 123, 149. OUR COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT SHOWS INDIVIDUALS IN OUR AREA CONTINUE TO FACE MANY UNMET NEEDS DUE TO THE LACK OF COMPREHENSIVE AND INTEGRATED SERVICES SYSTEMS, INCONSISTENT USE OF EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICES, A LACK OF INSURANCE, POVERTY (WITH 10.46% OF THE POPULATION LIVING BELOW THE POVERTY LEVEL), AND A LACK OF AFFORDABLE TRANSPORTATION. THESE CHALLENGES ARE EXACERBATED BY A PERSISTENT SHORTAGE OF PROVIDERS IN THE AREA, INCLUDING PHYSICIANS AND PSYCHIATRISTS. THE LACK OF PSYCHIATRISTS IS PARTICULARLY ACUTE AND INTENSIFIED BY A STATEWIDE DECLINE IN PSYCHIATRIC BEDS FOR EMERGENT AND CRISIS SERVICES. ALL COUNTIES WITHIN OUR CATCHMENT AREA A PRIMARY CARE AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CARE SHORTAGE AREAS (HPSAS) FOR MEDICAID POPULATIONS. A CHNA BY A LOCAL HEALTH SYSTEM ALSO IDENTIFIES A LACK OF MENTAL HEALTH PROVIDERS/SUPPORT SERVICES AS THE MOST SIGNIFICANT NEED IN NORTH CENTRAL IOWA. THE LACK OF BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES IS LINKED TO A CRITICALLY HIGH SUICIDE RATE WHICH, EVEN BEFORE THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC, WAS THE NINTH LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH IN IOWA AND THE SECOND LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH FOR IOWANS BETWEEN THE AGES OF 10 AND 34. SINCE 2000, SUICIDES HAVE GROWN FROM 288 TO 521 IN 2019, AND ARE GROWING STILL FURTHER DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC. FROM MARCH TO AUGUST 2020 ALONE, 267 SUICIDE DEATHS WERE REPORTED IN IOWA. CONCURRENTLY, ALCOHOL AND DRUG-RELATED HOSPITALIZATION RATES CONTINUE TO GROW. WHILE DATA ON THE IMPACT OF THE PANDEMIC IS STILL BEING GATHERED, THE U.S. CENSUS BUREAU ESTIMATES THAT ROUGHLY 100,000 MORE IOWANS IN DECEMBER 2020 REPORTED FEELING DEPRESSED NEARLY EVERY DAY COMPARED TO WHAT WAS SURVEYED IN MAY OR OCTOBER. THE CENTERS OF DISEASE CONTROL FOUND THAT IN THE FALL 2020, MENTAL HEALTH EMERGENCY VISITS ROSE BY 24% FOR CHILDREN AND 31% FOR TEENS. PRAIRIE RIDGE HAS DESIGNATED FIVE GOALS WITH MEASURABLE OBJECTIVES TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THE PEOPLE IN OUR CATCHMENT AREA AND OUR FOCUS POPULATIONS. THESE GOALS INCLUDE EXPANDING AVAILABILITY AND EASE OF ACCESS TO COMMUNITY-BASED PEER SUPPORT AND CRISIS RESPONSE SERVICES BY ESTABLISHING COMMUNITY DROP-IN CENTERS, ENHANCING PARTNERSHIPS BETWEEN PRAIRIE RIDGE'S BEHAVIORAL HEALTH TEAM AND THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM, EXPANDING ACCESS TO INTEGRATED HEALTH HOME SERVICES TO NON-MEDICAID FUNDED PATIENTS, ADDRESSING BEHAVIORAL HEALTH ISSUES OF SCHOOL-AGED CHILDREN AT RISK FOR SED THROUGH PROVISION OF "RECONNECTING YOUTH" CURRICULUM WITHIN THE SCHOOLS, AND INCREASING OUTREACH ABILITY BY TRAINING AND SUPPORTING PEERS TO ASSIST INDIVIDUALS WITH ADDRESSING BEHAVIORAL HEALTH NEEDS THAT MAY HAVE ARISEN OR WORSENED AS A RESULT OF THE PANDEMIC.

SM-22-012, CPC BEHAVIORAL HEALTHCARE IS APPLYING FOR A FY2022 CERTIFIED COMMUNITY BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CLINIC IMPROVEMENT AND ADVANCEMENT GRANT (CCBHC IA). A MAJOR GOAL OF THIS INITIATIVE IS TO IMPROVE ACCESS TO CCBHC SERVICES FOR RESIDENTS OF MONMOUTH AND NORTHERN OCEAN COUNTIES IN NEW JERSEY, WHICH ARE STATISTICALLY HIGH-NEED AREAS. AN EXAMPLE OF AN OBJECTIVE THAT HAS BEEN SET TO MEET THIS GOAL IS FOR CPC TO INCREASE THE CURRENT NUMBER OF UNDUPLICATED INDIVIDUALS RECEIVING CCBHC IA SERVICES BY 20% BY 2026. CPC WILL EXPAND COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS TO SUPPORT THE ABILITY TO ADDRESS SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH FOR INDIVIDUALS TO BETTER INTEGRATE INTO THEIR COMMUNITIES. AN EXAMPLE OF AN OBJECTIVE THAT HAS BEEN SET TO MEET THIS GOAL IS FOR CPC TO FIND MEANINGFUL EMPLOYMENT AND/OR EDUCATIONAL/VOCATIONAL PLACEMENTS FOR 20 INDIVIDUALS THROUGH SUPPORTED EMPLOYMENT AND EDUCATION PROGRAMS WITH COMMUNITY COLLEGES, TRADE ORGANIZATIONS AND BUSINESSES DURING THE CONTRACT TERM. CPC WILL ALSO INCREASE THE AWARENESS OF CCBHC AS A PREFERRED MODEL FOR INTEGRATED CARE AND ADVOCATE FOR SUSTAINABILITY FOR THIS MODEL IN THE COMMUNITY AND IN THE OVERALL HEALTHCARE SPACE. AN EXAMPLE OF AN OBJECTIVE THAT HAS BEEN SET TO MEET THIS GOAL IS FOR CPC TO OFFER 12 EDUCATIONAL AND/OR CARE MANAGEMENT WORKSHOPS TO PARTNERS (I.E., PRIMARY CARE PROVIDERS, SCHOOLS, FAMILY AND/OR CONSUMER SUPPORT GROUPS, ETC.) ABOUT INTEGRATED CARE. THE POPULATION OF FOCUS WILL BE INDIVIDUALS WITH SERIOUS MENTAL ILLNESS (SMI), SIGNIFICANT CO-OCCURRING MENTAL ILLNESS AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS (SUD), AND CHILDREN/ADOLESCENTS WITH SEVERE EMOTIONAL DISTURBANCES (SED) AND THEIR FAMILIES. CCBHC IA WILL PRIORITIZE CHILDREN, ADOLESCENTS AND YOUNG ADULTS. THESE INDIVIDUALS OFTEN HAVE LIMITED ACCESS TO PERSON-CENTERED, INTEGRATED TREATMENT INCLUDING CRISIS INTERVENTION AND COMPREHENSIVE CARE MANAGEMENT SERVICES DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY TO ADDRESS A BROAD ARRAY OF SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH. THEY ACCOUNT FOR THE MAJORITY OF INDIVIDUALS WHO “FALL BETWEEN THE CRACKS”. THESE INDIVIDUALS REQUIRE A SAFETY NET AND TREATMENT PHILOSOPHY THAT IS INTEGRATED, PERSON/FAMILY-CENTERED AND TRAUMA INFORMED. AS WITH OUR OTHER CCBHC GRANTS, THE FY2022 CCBHC IA FUNDING WILL BE USED TO SERVE THE IDENTIFIED COMMUNITIES BY DELIVERING EVIDENCE-BASED SERVICES IN MENTAL HEALTH, SUBSTANCE ABUSE AND PHYSICAL HEALTH THROUGH AN INTEGRATED SYSTEM OF CARE DESIGNED TO PROMOTE WELLNESS, RECOVERY AND PRODUCTIVE LIVES. THE CCBHC EXPANSION WILL HELP ENSURE EASILY ACCESSIBLE AND COMPREHENSIVE SERVICES THAT FOCUS ON THE WHOLE PERSON THROUGH PERSON-CENTERED CARE PROVIDED BY DIVERSE, EMPATHETIC, ENGAGED STAFF AND COMMUNITY PARTNERS. THROUGH THE CCBHC WE PROVIDE A VARIETY OF PROGRAMMING INCLUDING TRADITIONAL AND INTENSIVE OUTPATIENT SERVICES, AMBULATORY WITHDRAWAL MANAGEMENT, PARTIAL CARE, BEHAVIORAL HEALTH HOME, SUPPORTED EMPLOYMENT AND HOUSING, ASSERTIVE COMMUNITY TREATMENT, CRISIS RESPONSE AND STABILIZATION AND CARE MANAGEMENT.

THE FOCUS OF SERVICES WILL BE TO PROVIDE COMPREHENSIVE, INTEGRATED CARE THAT DIRECTLY ADDRESSES BEHAVIORAL HEALTH ISSUES, CHRONIC HEALTH CONDITIONS AND ADVERSE SOCIAL DETERMINANTS TO HEALTH LIKE HUNGER, POVERTY, LACK OF TRANSPORTATION AND HOMELESSNESS. INDIVIDUALS SERVED WILL INCLUDE ADULTS WITH SEVERE MENTAL HEALTH DISORDERS, CHILDREN WHO HAVE A DIAGNOSABLE MENTAL, BEHAVIORAL, OR EMOTIONAL DISORDER, INDIVIDUALS WITH SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS, INDIVIDUALS SUFFERING WITH A CHRONIC MEDICAL CONDITION THAT OCCURS WITH ONE OF THE PREVIOUS THREE CONDITIONS AND/OR INDIVIDUALS WITH CO-OCCURRING CONDITIONS THAT INCLUDE 2 OR MORE OF ANY OF THE CRITERIA LISTED ABOVE. THE GEOGRAPHIC FOCUS OF THE PROJECT INCLUDES AN 8-COUNTY AREA IN NORTHERN IOWA, INCLUDING THE COUNTIES OF CERRO GORDO, FLOYD, MITCHELL, WORTH, WINNEBAGO, KOSSUTH, HANCOCK AND FRANKLIN. THIS AREA HAS NO EXISTING CCBHC. THE TOTAL POPULATION OF THE 8-COUNTY AREA, AS DOCUMENTED BY THE U.S. CENSUS 2018 AMERICAN COMMUNITY 5-YEAR SURVEY, IS 123,149. OUR COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT SHOWS INDIVIDUALS IN OUR AREA CONTINUE TO FACE MANY UNMET NEEDS DUE TO THE LACK OF A COMPREHENSIVE AND INTEGRATED SERVICES SYSTEM, INCONSISTENT USE OF EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICES, A LACK OF INSURANCE, POVERTY (WITH 10.46% OF THE POPULATION LIVING BELOW THE POVERTY LEVEL), AND A LACK OF AFFORDABLE TRANSPORTATION. THESE CHALLENGES ARE EXACERBATED BY A PERSISTENT SHORTAGE OF PROVIDERS IN THE AREA, INCLUDING PHYSICIANS AND PSYCHIATRISTS. THE LACK OF PSYCHIATRISTS IS PARTICULARLY ACUTE AND INTENSIFIED BY A STATEWIDE DECLINE IN PSYCHIATRIC BEDS FOR EMERGENT AND CRISIS SERVICES. ALL COUNTIES WITHIN OUR CATCHMENT AREA ARE PRIMARY CARE AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTHCARE SHORTAGE AREAS (HPSAS) FOR MEDICAID POPULATIONS. A CHNA BY A LOCAL HEALTH SYSTEM ALSO IDENTIFIES A LACK OF MENTAL HEALTH PROVIDERS/SUPPORT SERVICES AS THE MOST SIGNIFICANT NEED IN NORTH CENTRAL IOWA. THE LACK OF BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES IS LINKED TO A CRITICALLY HIGH SUICIDE RATE WHICH IS THE NINTH LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH IN IOWA AND THE SECOND LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH FOR IOWANS BETWEEN THE AGES OF 10 AND 34. FURTHER, THERE HAS BEEN A MARKED INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF SUICIDE DEATHS SINCE 2000, GROWING FROM 288 TO 521 IN 2019, AND GROWING STILL FURTHER DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC. FROM MARCH TO AUGUST 2020 ALONE, 267 SUICIDE DEATHS WERE REPORTED IN IOWA. CONCURRENTLY, ALCOHOL-AND DRUG-RELATED HOSPITALIZATION RATES CONTINUE TO GROW. ISSUES ARE PARTICULARLY ACUTE AMONG OUR VETERANS, WHO MAKE UP NEARLY 7.6% OF THE STATE'S POPULATION. PRAIRIE RIDGE HAS DESIGNATED FOUR GOALS WITH MEASURABLE OBJECTIVES TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THE PEOPLE OF OUR CATCHMENT AREA AND OUR FOCUS POPULATIONS. THESE GOALS INCLUDE PROVIDING IMMEDIATE ACCESS TO COMPREHENSIVE SUICIDE PREVENTION SERVICES, DEVELOPING AN ASSERTIVE COMMUNITY TREATMENT PROGRAM, EXPANDING ACCESS TO A COMPREHENSIVE RANGE OF COMMUNITY-BASED MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS SERVICES (INCLUDING THE EXPANSION OF CRISIS SERVICES AND MEDICATION ASSISTED TREATMENT SERVICES), AND EXPANDING ACCESS TO VETERAN-FOCUSED MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERED SERVICES. OUR GOAL IS TO SERVE 1,000 UNDUPLICATED INDIVIDUALS IN THE FIRST TWO YEARS.

EXPANDING UPTAKE FOR INTERVENTIONS TO PREVENT THE TRANSMISSION OF HIV FROM MOTHER

NATIONWIDE SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITY REPORTING INITIATIVE (NSI) SUPPORT

THE IJIS INSTITUTE TEAM PROPOSES TO IMPLEMENT THE LAW ENFORCEMENT TRANSITION TO THE NATIONAL INCIDENT-BASED REPORTING SYSTEM (NIBRS) TO IMPROVE HATE CRIME REPORTING PROJECT TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT (LE) AGENCIES REPORTING DATA TO THE FBIS NATIONAL INCIDENT-BASED REPORTING SYSTEM (NIBRS) AND TO IMPROVE HATE CRIME REPORTING BY PROVIDING FUNDING, TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE AND TRAINING TO AGENCIES AND SERVICE PROVIDERS TO ASSIST THEIR TRANSITION TO NIBRS USING THE RAPID DEPLOYMENT MODEL (RDM). THIS APPROACH WILL EXPEDITE THE NUMBER OF AGENCIES TRANSITIONING TO NIBRS REPORTING BY WORKING DIRECTLY WITH THE SERVICE PROVIDERS TO TRANSITION A LARGE NUMBER OF THEIR CLIENT AGENCIES IN CLOSE COORDINATION WITH THE LEAS AND STATE UCR PROGRAMS RATHER THAN WORKING WITH AGENCIES INDIVIDUALLY. AN ENVIRONMENTAL SCAN WILL BE CONDUCTED TO DETERMINE WHAT PROPORTION OF EACH STATES POPULATION IS COVERED BY NON-NIBRS LE AGENCIES AND WHAT PERCENTAGE OF EACH STATES POPULATION THEY REPRESENT. TO ACHIEVE BJS GOALS, THE SCAN WILL BE CROSS-REFERENCED WITH INFORMATION ABOUT WHICH RMS SERVICE PROVIDERS OPERATE WITHIN AND ACROSS THE IDENTIFIED STATES AND AGENCIES. IN COORDINATION WITH BJS AND THE FBI, THE IJIS TEAM WILL EXECUTE THE RDM FOR THE STATES AND AGENCIES IDENTIFIED TO ENSURE THE GREATEST IMPACT ON THE POPULATIONS SERVED BY THE NUMBER OF LARGE LE AGENCIES SELECTED. THE TEAM IN COORDINATION WITH THE FBI UCR PROGRAM, WILL TRAIN UCR PROGRAMS AND LE AGENCIES ON THE PROCEDURES REQUIRED FOR REPORTING BIAS-MOTIVATED (HATE CRIME) OFFENSES AND LE EMPLOYEES IN IDENTIFYING AND CLASSIFYING HATE CRIMES. EXPECTED OUTCOMES INCLUDE: ADVANCING THE RULE OF LAW, INTEGRITY, AND PUBLIC SAFETY THROUGH IMPROVED REPORTING OF HATE CRIMES; INCREASING THE NUMBER OF AGENCIES REPORTING NIBRS DATA; AND INCREASED REPORTING OF HATE CRIMES. THIS APPROACH COLLECTS MORE DETAILED DATA ON HATE CRIMES BY ASSISTING STATES AND LOCAL LE AGENCIES IN MAKING THE NIBRS TRANSITION TO SUPPORT THE JABARA-HEYER NO HATE ACT. BENEFICIARIES INCLUDE THE LE AGENCIES THAT WILL BEGIN NIBRS (AND HATE CRIME) REPORTING, THE COMMUNITIES THEY SERVE BY PROVIDING BETTER OVERALL CRIME AND HATE CRIME DATA, AND THE NATION WILL BENEFIT FROM THE LARGER REPRESENTATION OF AGENCIES REPORTING NIBRS AND HATE CRIME DATA. SUBRECIPIENT OF THIS EFFORT, RESEARCH TRIANGLE INSTITUTE, WILL UTILIZE THEIR EXPERIENCE FROM THE BJS NIBRS NATIONAL ESTIMATION PROJECT TO DEVELOP AN UPDATED LANDSCAPE OF STATE NIBRS COVERAGE AS OF 2022, INCLUDING NEWLY ADDED LE AGENCIES THAT HAVE TRANSITIONED, AND THEN REFINE IT BASED ON INFORMATION FROM STAKEHOLDERS.

FY 2023 ASSERTIVE COMMUNITY TREATMENT - THE PRAIRIE RIDGE INTEGRATED BEHAVIORAL HEALTHCARE ASSERTIVE COMMUNITY TREATMENT (ACT) GRANT WILL FOCUS ON EXPANDING THE REACH OF OUR EXISTING ACT TEAM. PRAIRIE RIDGE INTEGRATED BEHAVIORAL HEALTHCARE (PRAIRIE RIDGE) IS A NONPROFIT COMMUNITY-BASED PROVIDER OF INTEGRATED BEHAVIORAL HEALTHCARE IN NORTH CENTRAL IOWA. OUR CATCHMENT AREA CONSISTS OF EIGHT, LARGELY RURAL COUNTIES (CERRO GORDO, FLOYD, MITCHELL, WORTH, WINNEBAGO, KOSSUTH, HANCOCK, AND FRANKLIN) THAT ARE SIGNIFICANTLY UNDERSERVED. ALL EIGHT COUNTIES ARE DESIGNATED BY HRSA AS MEDICAID MENTAL HEALTH PROFESSIONAL SHORTAGE AREAS (HPSAS). IN 2020, PRAIRIE RIDGE INITIATED OUR MEDICAID-ONLY ASSERTIVE COMMUNITY TREATMENT (ACT) PROGRAM TO PROVIDE INTENSIVE SUPPORT AND TREATMENT SERVICES TO INDIVIDUALS WITH SERIOUS MENTAL ILLNESS (SMI) LIVING WITHIN A 25-MILE RADIUS OF MASON CITY. HOWEVER, THAT 250-MILE RADIUS ONLY COVERS A SMALL PORTION OF OUR GEOGRAPHICALLY EXPANSIVE SERVICE AREA. A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF RESIDENTS LIVING IN THE EIGHT COUNTIES WE SERVE HAVE NO ACCESS TO AN ACT TEAM. WHEN INDIVIDUALS WITH SMI CANNOT ACCESS ACT, THEY ARE OFTEN MORE EASILY LOST TO BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CARE AND HAVE MORE FREQUENT HOSPITALIZATIONS. BASED ON THESE SIGNIFICANT GAPS, WE ARE PROPOSING TO EXPAND OUR ACT PROGRAM'S RADIUS TO THE ENTIRETY OF THE EIGHT COUNTIES IN OUR CATCHMENT AREA. OUR POPULATION OF FOCUS IS ADULTS AND TRANSITION-AGED CONSUMERS 18 AND OVER WITH SMI OR SERIOUS EMOTIONAL DISTURBANCE (SED) WHO LIVE WITHIN THE ENTIRETY OF OUR EIGHT-COUNTY SERVICE AREA. IN ALIGNMENT WITH THOSE NEEDS, PRAIRIE RIDGE'S GOALS AND MEASURABLE OBJECTIVES INCLUDE: 1) EXPAND OUR CURRENT ACT PROGRAM TO SERVE INDIVIDUALS IN A LARGER GEOGRAPHIC AREA; 2) SUPPORT ACT CONSUMERS TO BUILD RECOVERY CAPITAL AND ADDRESS THEIR WHOLE PERSON NEEDS TO HELP THEM LIVE SAFELY AND WITH STABILITY IN THEIR COMMUNITIES OF CHOICE; AND 3) IMPROVE HEALTH AND FUNCTIONING OF ACT CONSUMERS TO DECREASE THEIR MORTALITY RATES. NUMBER TO BE SERVED: THROUGH THIS EXPANSION OF OUR ACT TEAM, WE WILL INCREASE ACCESS TO 24/7, EVIDENCE-BASED, MULTIDISCIPLINARY TEAM-BASED SERVICES FOR ADULTS AND TRANSITION-AGED CONSUMERS 18 AND OVER WITH SMI AND SED INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING NUMBERS OF CLIENTS SERVED EACH YEAR: 40 UNDUPLICATED INDIVIDUALS BY THE END OF YEAR1; 15 ADDITIONAL UNDUPLICATED INDIVIDUALS BY THE END OF YEAR 2 (FOR A TOTAL OF 55 INDIVIDUALS BEING SERVED); 7 ADDITIONAL UNDUPLICATED INDIVIDUALS IN YEAR 3 (FOR A TOTAL OF 62 INDIVIDUALS SERVED); AND 6 ADDITIONAL UNDUPLICATED INDIVIDUALS IN YEARS 4 AND 5 (FOR A TOTAL OF 74 INDIVIDUALS SERVED).

MAT CAPACITY EXPANSION PROJECT IN BURLINGTON, CAMDEN, AND MERCER COUNTY, NEW JERSEY. - OAKS INTEGRATED CARE (OAKS) IS SEEKING TO EXPAND CAPACITY OF THE PROVISION OF OUR MEDICATION ASSISTED TREATMENT (MAT) SERVICES IN BURLINGTON, CAMDEN, AND MERCER COUNTIES IN NEW JERSEY TO INDIVIDUALS WHO PRESENT WITH AN OPIOID USE DISORDER (OUD). OAKS' EXPANSION OF MAT SERVICES WILL CONTINUE TO FILL A STRONG NEED FOR INDIGENT BURLINGTON, CAMDEN, AND MERCER RESIDENTS WHO SEEK TREATMENT, BY ENABLING US TO SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASE THE AMOUNT OF MAT WE ARE ABLE TO OFFER TO THESE CRITICAL POPULATIONS. NEW JERSEY HAS SEEN AN INCREASE IN OVERDOSE RATES WITHIN THE PAST YEAR DUE IN PART OF THE PANDEMIC, BUT ALSO THE PRESENCE OF FENTANYL AND OTHER SYNTHETIC OPIATES THAT ARE MUCH MORE LETHAL AND PRESENT IN THE SUBSTANCES BEING USED. OAKS HAS IDENTIFIED THE 3 COUNTIES AS ITS TARGET POPULATIONS BASED ON THE CRITERIA THAT: 1) THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT POPULATION OF INDIVIDUALS WITH AN OUD IN THESE 3 COUNTIES WHO WILL BENEFIT FROM MAT SERVICES; 2) THERE ARE EXISTING SERVICE GAPS, INCLUDING A LACK OF MAT AVAILABILITY AND RELUCTANCE OF INPATIENT PRESCRIPTIONS STEMMING FROM A LACK OF LINKAGE TO COMMUNITY PROVIDERS, WHICH SERVE AS MAJOR BARRIERS TO ACCESS OF CARE FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH AN OUD; 3) THERE IS AN EXISTING NEED TO ENSURE PROPER TRANSITION AND COORDINATION OF CARE FOR INDIVIDUALS ENTERING AND EXITING THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT (ED), JAIL SYSTEMS, AND INPATIENT FACILITIES WHO ARE INDUCED ON OR RELIANT ON MAT SERVICES FOR THEIR CARE AND RECOVERY. THE GOAL OF OAKS' MAT CAPACITY EXPANSION IS TO ENSURE ACCESS THAT IS AS IMMEDIATE AS POSSIBLE WITHOUT COMPROMISING THE QUALITY OF CARE. THE EXPANDED CAPACITY AFFORDED THROUGH THIS FUNDING WILL SERVE AN ADDITIONAL 120 UNDUPLICATED INDIVIDUALS ANNUALLY, OR 600 UNDUPLICATED TOTAL INDIVIDUALS THROUGHOUT THE 5-YEAR PROJECT PERIOD. THIS NUMBER IS PROJECT FROM THE NUMBER OF CONSUMERS THAT WE CURRENTLY PROVIDED MAT SERVICES TO WITHIN THESE 3 COUNTIES.

AFFORDABLE SIALOGLYCANS AND ASSOCIATED REAGENTS FOR EXPANDED CHEMOENZYMATIC PRODUCTION - PROJECT SUMMARY SIALOGLYCANS ARE SIALIC ACID-CONTAINING OLIGOSACCHARIDES THAT PLAY IMPORTANT BIOLOGICAL ROLES IN HUMAN BIOLOGY AND PATHOLOGY AND ARE INDISPENSABLE MOLECULAR PROBES FOR RESEARCH RELATED TO BACTERIAL AND VIRAL INFECTION, CANCER METASTASIS, IMMUNE REGULATION, ETC. THE MULTIFACETED FUNCTIONS OF SIALOGLYCANS IN HUMAN MILK ARE ALSO BEING EXPLORED. NEVERTHELESS, SIALOGLYCAN-RELATED RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT OF THERAPEUTICS AND DIAGNOSTICS HAVE BEEN HAMPERED BY THE LIMITED ACCESS TO THESE STRUCTURALLY COMPLEX COMPOUNDS AS WELL AS THE HIGH COST AND SPECIAL EXPERTISE NEEDED FOR SYNTHESIZING AND PURIFYING THESE REAGENTS. AMONG VARIOUS SYNTHETIC STRATEGIES FOR PRODUCING SIALOGLYCANS, GLYCOSYLTRANSFERASE-BASED CHEMOENZYMATIC METHODS ARE ATTRACTIVE STRATEGIES. AN EFFICIENT METHOD FOR SYNTHESIZING STRUCTURALLY DEFINED SIALOGLYCANS IS ONE- POT MULTIENZYME (OPME) CHEMOENZYMATIC STRATEGY DEVELOPED BY DR. HAI YU AND DR. XI CHEN AT UC DAVIS. EACH OPME GLYCOSYLATION REACTION CONTAINS A GLYCOSYLTRANSFERASE AND ENZYMES INVOLVED IN GENERATING THE CORRESPONDING SUGAR NUCLEOTIDE DONOR IN SITU FROM A SIMPLE MONOSACCHARIDE. THE OPME REACTIONS ALLOW THE SYNTHESIS OF TARGET GLYCANS CONTAINING THE DESIRED GLYCOSIDIC LINKAGE WITH HIGH REGIO- AND STEREO-SPECIFICITY. AT THE CURRENT STAGE, LARGE-SCALE SYNTHESIS BY THE OPME SYSTEMS IS STILL LIMITED BY THE SCALES AND THE YIELDS OF THE ENZYMES PRODUCED. IN ADDITION, OPME REACTION CONDITIONS CAN BE IMPROVED TO DECREASE THE AMOUNTS OF ENZYMES USED FOR THE SYNTHESIS. PRODUCT PURIFICATION PROCESSES CAN ALSO BE STREAMLINED USING INNOVATIVE STRATEGIES. TO ADVANCE SIALIC ACID-RELATED RESEARCH AND THERAPEUTIC DEVELOPMENT, THE GOAL OF THIS PROPOSED PROJECT IS TO DEVELOP REAGENTS, ENZYMES, AND METHODS THAT ARE READY FOR COMMERCIALIZATION TO ALLOW LOW-COST ACCESS TO SIALOGLYCANS OF HIGH DEMANDS AND THEIR UNDERLYING ASIALOGLYCANS BY THE BROAD SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY (BOTH ACADEMIC AND INDUSTRY) AND TO ENABLE HIGHLY EFFICIENT PRODUCTION OF DIVERSE BIOLOGICALLY IMPORTANT SPECIAL SIALOGLYCAN TARGETS BY EVEN NONSPECIALISTS. THIS WILL BE ACHIEVED BY THE COLLABORATION OF THE UC DAVIS TEAM WITH IMCS WHICH HAS EXPERTISE IN HIGH-YIELD ENZYME PRODUCTION BY FERMENTATION, UNIQUE LYSIS TECHNIQUE, COMMERCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE TO MANUFACTURE, AND PRODUCT SALE AT AFFORDABLE PRICES TO THE COMMUNITY.

PERSEVERE-PEF: OPTIMIZING MEDICAL THERAPY SAVES LIVES IN HEART FAILURE WITH PRESERVED EJECTION FRACTION - NEED. IN THE US, HEART FAILURE (HF) IS THE CONTRIBUTING CAUSE OF 1 IN 8 DEATHS. HF WITH PRESERVED EJECTION FRACTION (HFPEF) AFFECTS CLOSE TO 50% OF ALL HF PATIENTS. THE 5-YEARS MORTALITY IS 35%. HFPEF MULTI-ORGAN SYNDROME CLINICAL CARE MANAGEMENT IS COMPLEX AND TIME CONSUMING. IN ADDRESSING HFPEF, THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF CARDIOLOGY GUIDELINES DIRECTED MEDICAL THERAPY (GDMT) REFERENCES THE MEDICAL THERAPY DECISION TO THE INDIVIDUAL DISEASE GUIDELINES [HYPERTENSION (HTN), CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE (CAD), ATRIAL FIBRILLATION (AFIB)]. PROVIDING CONCERTED MULTI-DISEASE HFPEF MANAGEMENT IS A MAJOR UNMET CLINICAL NEED. SOLUTION. IN RESPONSE TO THIS NEED, WE (OPTIMA) DEVELOPED AND DEMONSTRATED THE FEASIBILITY OF A CLINICAL ANALYTIC INTELLIGENCE (AI) FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF HFPEF MULTI-ORGAN SYNDROME, OPTIMA4PEF AI. THE SOLUTION ADDS SIGNIFICANT VALUE TO OPTIMA’S HF MANAGEMENT SERVICE CURRENTLY ADDRESSING THE GDMT MANAGEMENT OF HTN (OPTIMA4BP AI) AND HFREF (OPTIMA4HEART AI). OPTIMA4PEF DECONSTRUCTS A COMPLEX SET OF DISEASE- SPECIFIC CLINICAL GUIDELINES AND RE-ASSEMBLES THEM INTO A CONCERTED MULTI-DISEASE GDMT THAT IS PATIENT- PERSONALIZED, EXPLAINABLE, AND ACTIONABLE. OBJECTIVES. PERSEVERE-PEF [OPTIMIZING MEDICAL THERAPY SAVES LIVES IN HEART FAILURE WITH PRESERVED EJECTION FRACTION] PROPOSES TO COMPLETE THE AI DEVELOPMENT OF OPTIMA4PEF PRODUCT CONCEPT, AND TO VALIDATE ITS EFFICACY USING CONTEMPORARY, DIVERSE, RETROSPECTIVE PATIENT COHORTS. AIM 1. BUILD OPTIMA4PEF AI TO ADDRESS THE GDMT MANAGEMENT OF HFPEF MULTI-ORGAN SYNDROME. HYPOTHESIS. OPTIMA4PEF DECONSTRUCTS A COMPLEX SET OF DISEASE-SPECIFIC CLINICAL GUIDELINES AND RE-ASSEMBLES THEM INTO A CONCERTED MULTI-DISEASE GDMT THAT IS PATIENT-PERSONALIZED, EXPLAINABLE, AND ACTIONABLE. THE PRODUCT CONCEPT WORK BUILT THE OPTIMA4PEF AI SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE AND DEVELOPED THE DECISION LOGIC TO ADDRESS GDMT MANAGEMENT FOR PATIENTS EXPERIENCING HFPEF + VOLUME OVERLOAD + HTN. OPTIMA4PEF PRODUCT CONCEPT WILL BE EXTENDED TO INCLUDE GDMT MANAGEMENT OF AFIB AND OF CAD. AN END-TO-END ALGORITHM REGRESSION TEST WILL BE PERFORMED TO VERIFY THAT EACH DECISION LOGIC STEP PERFORMS ITS INTENDED FUNCTION. AIM 2. VALIDATE OPTIMA4PEF AI IN RECOMMENDING THE MOST RELEVANT GDMT. HYPOTHESIS. IN = 90% OF PATIENT CASES, OPTIMA4PEF CASE-SPECIFIC TREATMENT RECOMMENDATION IS ACCEPTED AS THE APPROPRIATE NEXT STEP IN THE PROCESS OF MULTI-DISEASE GDMT TREATMENT OPTIMIZATION OF PATIENTS DIAGNOSED WITH HFPEF. UNIDENTIFIED PATIENT RECORDS WILL BE COLLECTED FROM 4 CLINICAL PARTNER SITES. A RANDOMIZATION ALGORITHM WILL SELECT N=840 PATIENT RECORDS. OPTIMA4PEF WILL GENERATE A TREATMENT ACTION (TA) FOR EACH PATIENT RECORD. A SIMPLE MAJORITY RULE OF PHARMACOLOGY AND CARDIOLOGY EXPERTS (N=5) WILL ADJUDICATE THE OPTIMA4PEF TA.

LARGE-AREA PLASMA PANEL DETECTORS FOR PARTICLE BEAM RADIATION THERAPY

ULTRAFAST AND PRECISE EXTERNAL BEAM MONITOR FOR FLASH AND OTHER ADVANCED RADIATION THERAPY MODALITIES - SUMMARY/ABSTRACT FLASH RADIOTHERAPY (FLASH-RT) IS A NOVEL FORM OF RADIATION THERAPY THAT PROMISES LARGE SPARING OF NORMAL- TISSUES IN CANCER TREATMENT WHILE SHOWING NO TUMOR SPARING. IN FLASH-RT, THE RADIATION DOSE IS DELIVERED TO THE TUMOR AND NORMAL TISSUES IN MILLISECONDS RATHER THAN MINUTES. FLASH-RT IS ONLY EFFECTIVE WHEN GIVEN WITH LARGE DOSES PER FRACTION DELIVERED IN 1-3 TREATMENT SESSIONS. IT WOULD SHORTEN A STANDARD 30-DAY TREATMENT TO 1- 3 DAYS, THUS GREATLY REDUCING SIDE-EFFECTS AND RADIATION THERAPY COSTS TO BOTH THE PATIENT AND SOCIETY. THE FIRST HUMAN PATIENT WAS SUCCESSFULLY TREATED IN 2018. THE FIRST CLINICAL TRIAL WITH TEN (10) PATIENTS STARTED IN THE U.S. IN NOVEMBER 2020. ADDITIONAL CLINICAL TRIALS ARE PLANNED FOR 2021 IN THE U.S. AND IN EUROPE WITH AT LEAST 100 PATIENTS. A MAJOR LIMITATION OF FLASH-RT, PREVENTING A FAST TRANSLATION TO CLINICAL USE, IS THE LACK OF DETECTORS CAPABLE OF MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS NEEDED TO MONITOR AND TERMINATE THE FLASH-RT TREATMENT IN REAL TIME. WE PROPOSE TO DEVELOP AND DEMONSTRATE A LARGE AREA, ULTRAFAST AND PRECISE EXTERNAL BEAM MONITOR FOR FLASH-RT, UNIVERSALLY SUITABLE FOR ELECTRONS, PROTONS, PHOTONS, AND IONS, THAT CAN TERMINATE THE BEAM IN =1 MS WHILE THE PATIENT IS BEING TREATED. FOR THIS PROPOSAL, WE WILL PRIMARILY FOCUS ON DEVELOPING AND DEMONSTRATING THE SYSTEM FOR ELECTRON FLASH-RT WITH LINACS AND PROTON FLASH-RT WITH EXISTING CYCLOTRONS, BUT WILL ALSO DEMONSTRATE PERFORMANCE USING X-RAYS. UNLIKE STRIP OR WIRE IONIZATION CHAMBERS, THE PROPOSED SYSTEM IS BASED ON OUR PATENTED (JAN 2020 AND NOV 2020) IONIZING-RADIATION BEAM MONITORING SYSTEM TECHNOLOGY, WHICH CAN PROVIDE ULTRAFAST READOUT WITH CONCURRENT ANALYSIS OF THE RADIATION BEAM POSITION, PROFILE, AND FLUENCE/DOSIMETRY IN REAL TIME AT A RATE OF =10 KHZ (I.E., BEAM ANALYSIS =100 ΜS). THE PROPOSED SYSTEM PROVIDES REAL-TIME DOSIMETRY, BEAM CONTROL, AND VERIFICATION FOR FLASH-RT. IT PROVIDES AN ACCURATE 2D POSITION AND BEAM PROFILE OF RAPIDLY SCANNED BEAMS WITH A SPATIAL RESOLUTION OF A FEW MICRONS OVER AN ACTIVE BEAM MONITORING AREA OF 26 CM X 30 CM. THE BEAM MONITOR RESPONSE IS LINEAR, WITHOUT SATURATION, FOR ALL FLASH-RT BEAM LUMINOSITIES. PROTON BEAM TESTING WILL BE PRIMARILY AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN ION BEAM LABORATORY, AND ELECTRON BEAM TESTING AT THE NOTRE DAME RADIATION LABORATORY. THE PROPOSED PROGRAM IS FOR 3-YEARS AND WILL EVOLVE FROM FABRICATION AND TESTING OF A QUARTER-SCALE BEAM MONITOR IN YEAR 1 TO A FULL-SIZE SYSTEM WITH SELF-CALIBRATION CAPABILITY IN YEAR 3. OUR PRINCIPAL COLLABORATORS ON THIS PROGRAM INCLUDE THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN, PHYSICS DEPARTMENT, AND LOMA LINDA UNIVERSITY, SCHOOL OF MEDICINE. THE PROPOSED BEAM MONITOR CONSTITUTES A CRITICAL ENABLING TECHNOLOGY FOR ALL TYPES OF FLASH-RT. IT WILL ENSURE THE SAFETY, QUALITY, AND EFFICIENCY OF FLASH RADIATION THERAPY, ALLOWING CANCER PATIENTS TO BE SUCCESSFULLY TREATED WITH MUCH HIGHER DOSES, FEWER SIDE-EFFECTS, AND EXCELLENT TUMOR CONTROL. IT IS ALSO SUITABLE FOR SPATIALLY FRACTIONATED RADIATION THERAPY TECHNIQUES SUCH AS GRID, LATTICE, MICROBEAM RT (MRT), AND PROTON-MINIBEAM RT (PMBRT). THE PROPOSED BEAM MONITOR IS ALSO BEING DESIGNED INTO A NOVEL (PATENT PENDING) ULTRAFAST RADIOABLATION SYSTEM THAT ELIMINATES THE MOTION PROBLEM FOR TREATING CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIA (AFIB).

MAJOR SERVICE GAPS FOR CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS, INTENSIFIED BY THE COVID19 PANDEMIC, INCLUDE: INADEQUATE PSYCHIATRIC CARE, LACK OF SERVICES FOR THOSE WITH CO-OCCURRING DISORDERS, LACK OF SERVICES FOR THOSE WHO CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY FOR TREATMENT, LACK OF CARE FOR THOSE WITH COMPLEX BEHAVIORAL AND MEDICAL NEEDS AND ACCESS TO ANY TREATMENT FOR YOUTH AGED 3-16 YEARS DIAGNOSED WITH A SED, EVEN WITH PRIVATE INSURANCE. THE CATCHMENT AREA WHERE PROPOSED SERVICES WILL BE DELIVERED ARE MONMOUTH COUNTY AND NORTHERN OCEAN COUNTY NJ, WHICH ARE HIGH NEED AREAS. THIS INITIATIVE WILL DELIVER EVIDENCE-BASED SERVICES IN MENTAL HEALTH, SUBSTANCE ABUSE AND PHYSICAL HEALTH THROUGH AN INTEGRATED SYSTEM OF CARE DESIGNED TO PROMOTE WELLNESS, RECOVERY AND PRODUCTIVE LIVES. THE CMHC GRANT WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED BY CREATING MULTIDISCIPLINARY MOBILE TEAMS TO DELIVER TREATMENT AND SUPPORT SERVICES TO THE TARGET POPULATIONS FOR THIS GRANT: CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS RESIDING IN MONMOUTH AND NORTHERN OCEAN COUNTIES WITH DIAGNOSES OF SMI, SUD, SED AND CO-OCCURRING DISORDERS AND THEIR FAMILIES. THESE INDIVIDUALS OFTEN HAVE LIMITED ACCESS TO PERSON-CENTERED, INTEGRATED TREATMENT. THEY ACCOUNT FOR THE MAJORITY OF INDIVIDUALS WHO “FALL BETWEEN THE CRACKS”. THESE INDIVIDUALS REQUIRE A SAFETY NET AND TREATMENT PHILOSOPHY THAT IS INTEGRATED, PERSON/FAMILY-CENTERED AND TRAUMA INFORMED. THE COMMUNITY YOUTH SUPPORT TEAMS WILL HELP ENSURE EASILY ACCESSIBLE AND COMPREHENSIVE SERVICES THAT FOCUS ON THE WHOLE PERSON THROUGH PERSON-CENTERED CARE PROVIDED BY DIVERSE, EMPATHETIC, ENGAGED STAFF. THROUGH THE PROGRAM WE WILL PROVIDE VARIETY OF PROGRAMMING INCLUDING A COMPREHENSIVE TRAUMA INFORMED ASSESSMENT OF THE CLIENT’S BEHAVIORAL, PRIMARY CARE AND SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH NEEDS, INCLUDE SCREENING FOR ADVERSE CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES (ACES). TREATMENT WILL FOCUS ON COMMUNITY-BASED CRISIS STABILIZATION WITH AN OVERARCHING GOAL OF THE CLIENT’S RETURN TO HOMEOSTASIS AND TRANSITION TO ROUTINE AMBULATORY BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES.

OPTIMIZING A MINIATURIZED AND INTEGRATED CONTINUOUS GLUCOSE MONITORING PLATFORM - PROJECT SUMMARY THE LONG-TERM GOAL OF THIS PROJECT IS TO DEVELOP A SCALABLE, USER-FRIENDLY, CONTINUOUS GLUCOSE MONITORING (CGM) SYSTEM FOR BETTER DIABETES MANAGEMENT. IMS HAS DEVELOPED THE WORLD'S SMALLEST ELECTROCHEMICAL ANALYTE SENSING PLATFORM BASED ON AN APPLICATION-SPECIFIC INTEGRATED CIRCUIT (ASIC) USING COMPLEMENTARY METAL-OXIDE SEMICONDUCTOR (CMOS) TECHNOLOGY. THIS DESIGN OFFERS SOME UNIQUE ADVANTAGES DUE TO ITS ACTIVE DIGITAL SENSOR (COMPARED TO PASSIVE ANALOG SENSORS IN CURRENT LEADING CGMS) INCLUDING EXTREME MINIATURIZATION, ON-CHIP INTEGRATION OF MULTIPLE SENSORS AND PROCESSING ELECTRONICS, IMPROVEMENT IN SIGNAL-TO-NOISE (SNR) RATIO (THUS IMPROVING HYPOGLYCEMIA ACCURACY), AND ON-CHIP TEMPERATURE CALIBRATION (IMPROVE ACCURACY, RELIABILITY BY CONFIRMING THE SENSOR IS IN THE TISSUE, AND PERFORMING ON-SITE TEMPERATURE CALIBRATION DURING SICKNESS, EXERCISE, AND SLEEP). MOREOVER, THE SYSTEM USES EXTREMELY SCALABLE SEMICONDUCTOR AND FLEXIBLE ELECTRONICS MANUFACTURING METHODS, INCREASING LOT SIZES BY > 50,000X (SIMPLIFYING FACTORY CALIBRATION) AND REDUCING COST (IMPROVING AFFORDABILITY AND BROADENING USAGE). THE PROPOSED SYSTEM IS NAMED CGM+ SINCE IT GOES BEYOND JUST GLUCOSE MONITORING (V1 MEASURES GLUCOSE AND TEMPERATURE, V2 WILL MEASURE GLUCOSE, KETONES, TEMPERATURE, AND PH). HENCE, THE DESIGN IS HIGHLY INNOVATIVE. WE HAVE DEMONSTRATED THE FUNCTION OF THE CGM+ PLATFORM IN HUMANS IN A FIRST-IN-HUMAN (FIH) FEASIBILITY STUDY IN PHASE II. RECENTLY, WE VERIFIED THE FEASIBILITY OF SYSTEM OPERATION FOR 14 DAYS IN A SECOND HUMAN STUDY (ONGOING). OUR OBJECTIVE IN THIS CRP GRANT IS TO OPTIMIZE THE MANUFACTURING AND THE QUALITY FRAMEWORK TO ENABLE LARGER HUMAN STUDIES, PAVING THE WAY TOWARDS ENABLING AN FDA IDE FOR APPROVAL TRIALS. THIS WORK IS SIGNIFICANT AS IT WILL CATALYZE THE COMMERCIALIZATION OF THE FIRST CGM+ SYSTEM CAPABLE OF THE SMALLEST NEEDLE INSERTION (28-GAUGE NEEDLE) THAT CAN WORK FOR A LONG TIME (>14 DAYS) WITH FACTORY CALIBRATION (NO FINGER STICKS). AFTER THE FIRST APPROVAL, THIS SYSTEM CAN BE EXTENDED TO INCLUDE OTHER ANALYTES (E.G., KETONES, INSULIN, GLUCAGON) WITHOUT INCREASING ITS SIZE, OWING TO THE ON-CHIP INTEGRATION OF MULTIPLE SENSORS. THE TEAM INCLUDES ORIGINAL INVENTORS OF THE CORE TECHNOLOGY FROM THE CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY (DR. NAZARI, DR. RAHMAN, MR. SENCAN), A SEASONED AND RESPECTED RESEARCHER IN ELECTROCHEMICAL SENSOR TECHNOLOGY (BILL VAN ANTWERP, FORMER CSO OF MEDTRONIC MINIMED), REGULATORY AND IP EXPERT (JOHN HEITHAUS, JD), COMMERCIALIZATION EXPERT (MR. PAUL STRASMA, FORMER CEO OF CAPILLARY BIOMEDICAL WHICH WAS RECENTLY ACQUIRED BY TANDEM DIABETES), CLINICAL EXPERT (DR. ALAN MARCUS, MD; FORMER CHIEF MEDICAL OFFICER OF MEDTRONIC DIABETES), AND A BIOSENSORS AND BIOMATERIALS EXPERT (DR. NATALIE WISNIEWSKI, PH.D., FORMER CTO OF PROFUSA, INC.).

SBIR PHASE II: CONVERTING ORGANIC WASTE TO BIOPOLYMER BY SYNERGIZING ANAEROBIC DIGESTION AND SYNTHETIC BIOLOGY

** AWARDS ISSUED PRIOR TO JANUARY 20, 2025, WERE FUNDED UNDER PREVIOUS ADMINISTRATIONS AND MAY NOT REFLECT THE PRIORITIES AND POLICIES OF THE CURRENT ADMINISTRATION.** THIS PROJECT ADDRESSES THE ISSUE OF WASTE GENERATED BY POTATO PROCESSING PLANTS, SPECIFICALLY FOCUSING ON POTATO PEELS. POTATO PEELS ARE OFTEN DISCARDED, CONTRIBUTING TO ENVIRONMENTAL WASTE AND LOST ECONOMIC POTENTIAL. BY DEVELOPING A TECHNOLOGY TO EXTRACT VALUABLE POLYPHENOLS AND DIETARY FIBERS FROM THESE PEELS, THE PROJECT AIMS TO TURN THIS WASTE INTO A RESOURCE. POLYPHENOLS ARE KNOWN FOR THEIR ANTIOXIDANT PROPERTIES, AND DIETARY FIBERS ARE ESSENTIAL FOR DIGESTIVE HEALTH, MAKING BOTH COMPOUNDS HIGHLY DESIRABLE IN THE FOOD AND BEVERAGE INDUSTRY. ADDRESSING THIS ISSUE IS NOT ONLY IMPORTANT FOR IMPROVING WASTE MANAGEMENT AND SUSTAINABILITY IN AGRICULTURE BUT ALSO FOR ENHANCING THE ECONOMIC VIABILITY OF POTATO PROCESSING OPERATIONS AND PROVIDING HEALTHIER FOOD OPTIONS TO THE COMMUNITY.TO ACHIEVE THIS, THE PROJECT WILL EMPLOY A PILOT-SCALE EXTRACTION SYSTEM TO REFINE AND OPTIMIZE THE PROCESS OF EXTRACTING POLYPHENOLS AND DIETARY FIBERS FROM POTATO PEELS. THE EXTRACTION PROCESS WILL BE CAREFULLY MONITORED AND ADJUSTED TO ENSURE MAXIMUM YIELD AND QUALITY OF THE EXTRACTED COMPOUNDS.
