NON-ACTIVATED NATURAL KILLER CELL ENGINEERING FOR ENHANCED CYTOTOXIC POTENTIAL - ABSTRACT NATURAL KILLER (NK) CELLS ARE A SUBSET OF INNATE IMMUNE CELLS THAT ARE ABLE TO RESPOND TO THREAT WITHOUT ANTIBODY PRIMING. THIS QUICK RESPONSE TO STIMULI MAKES THEM AN IDEAL IMMUNOTHERAPY CANDIDATE. YET, GENETIC MODIFICATION IN NK CELLS HAS PROVEN TO BE DIFFICULT USING CONVENTIONAL VIRAL AND NON-VIRAL TRANSFECTION METHODOLOGIES. ALTERNATIVE DELIVERY METHODS ARE NECESSARY IN ORDER TO MAKE GENETIC MODIFICATIONS AT REPRODUCIBLE AND EFFICIENT RATES, WHILE MAINTAINING HIGH CELL VIABILITY. THE PROPOSED STUDY USES CONTINUOUS FLOW ELECTRIC FIELD-ASSISTED TRANSFECTION VIA A PROPRIETARY FLOWFECT™ PLATFORM. THIS PLATFORM REPRESENTS A NOVEL APPROACH TO NON-VIRAL DELIVERY IN HISTORICALLY “HARD-TO-TRANSFECT” HUMAN CELLS. THE CURRENT RESEARCH PROPOSES TO TRANSFECT NON-ACTIVATED NK CELLS WITH CAS9 RIBONUCLEOPROTEINS (RNPS) FOR GENETIC MODIFICATION USING THE FLOWFECT™ PLATFORM. TO ACHIEVE THIS GOAL, WE HAVE OUTLINED A TWO-PHASE RESEARCH STRATEGY WHICH FOCUSES ON STABILITY AND FUNCTIONALITY OF EDITED NK CELLS BOTH IN VITRO AND IN VIVO. PHASE I WILL FOCUS ON OPTIMIZING TRANSFECTION EFFICIENCY AND MAINTAINING CELL FUNCTIONALITY WHILE PHASE II WILL FOCUS ON UNDERSTANDING HOW THE FLOWFECT™ PLATFORM WOULD BE DEPLOYED FOR PRE-CLINICAL RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT PURPOSES. BRIEFLY, OUR PHASE I GOAL IS TO 1) DETERMINE OPTIMAL FLOWFECT™ CONDITIONS IN NON- ACTIVATED NK CELLS AND 2) INDUCE STABLE KNOCKOUT OF A CLINICALLY RELEVANT NK CELL TARGET. MEETING OUR PHASE I MILESTONES WILL HELP US BUILD TOWARDS OUR PHASE II GOALS OF 1) SUCCESSFULLY SCREENING GUIDES WHICH RESULT IN ENHANCED CYTOTOXICITY AND 2) TRANSLATING THESE FINDINGS TO HIGH EFFICACY WITHIN AN IN VIVO MOUSE MODEL OF ACUTE MYELOID LEUKEMIA (AML).

TERM: A THE TERM OF THE BASE PERIOD FOR THIS AGREEMENT COMMENCES ON DECEMBER 01, 2019 AND CONTINUES THROUGH DECEMBER 31, 2020. OPTION 1, IF EXERCISED, COMMENCES ON THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF EXERCISE AND CONTINUES FOR A PERIOD OF 18 MONTHS.

ESTABLISHING THE POROS INTRACELLULAR DELIVERY SYSTEM AS A PLATFORM FOR CELLULAR THERAPEUTICS - ABSTRACT CAR-T THERAPY IS A RAPIDLY EMERGING THERAPY FOR THE TREATMENT OF CANCER, WITH TWO COMPANIES RECEIVING FDA APPROVAL FOR THEIR FIRST CAR-T THERAPIES IN 2017. THESE THERAPIES USE IMMUNE CELLS CALLED T CELLS, EITHER FROM THE PATIENT THEMSELVES, OR A HEALTHY DONOR, AND GENETICALLY ENGINEER THEM TO KILL THE TUMOR CELLS. THE GENETIC ENGINEERING INVOLVES DIRECT DELIVERY OF NUCLEIC ACIDS TO THESE CELLS, WHICH IS CHALLENGING AS CURRENT DELIVERY METHODS EITHER LACK EFFICIENCY, ARE VERY DAMAGING TO CELLS, OR BOTH. THIS ENGINEERING IS PERFORMED ON A CASE- BY-CASE BASIS AND THE METHODS ARE COSTLY AND TIME-CONSUMING. NEXT GENERATION CAR-T THERAPIES WILL INCLUDE MORE COMPLEX GENETIC ENGINEERING, WITH TWO OR MORE EDITING EVENTS REQUIRED. THIS IS CURRENTLY BEING DONE IN A SEQUENTIAL FASHION, WHICH INCREASES THE TIME-TO-PATIENT OF THE FINAL PRODUCT. IN ORDER TO MAKE CAR-T THERAPIES AVAILABLE TO MORE PATIENTS IN A COST-EFFECTIVE, SAFE AND TIMELY MANNER, NEW APPROACHES NEED TO BE DEVELOPED. CURRENT RESEARCH IS ADDRESSING THIS NEED BY DEVELOPING NEW TECHNOLOGIES FOR CELL TREATMENT THAT ALLOW FASTER RECOVERY AND EXPANSION TIME OF THE TREATED CELLS, ALLOW DELIVERY OF MULTIPLE MOLECULES IN ONE SHOT AND THAT CAN BE INTEGRATED INTO A CLOSED, MANUFACTURING-READY SYSTEM. ANOTHER FOCUS OF RESEARCH IS ENGINEERING HEALTHY DONOR T CELLS TO BE USED IN CAR-T THERAPY, WHICH WOULD ALLOW FOR AN OFF-THE-SHELF CELLULAR THERAPEUTIC. FOR THIS TYPE OF PRODUCT TO BE REALIZED, HIGH CAPACITY TREATMENT METHODS NEED TO BE DEVELOPED CAPABLE OF TREATING > 1010 CELLS WHILE ALSO MAINTAINING HIGH CELL VIABILITY AND DELIVERY EFFICIENCY. OPENCELL TECHNOLOGIES HAS DEVELOPED A PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY, POROS, TO DELIVER MACROMOLECULES SUCH AS DNA, RNA AND PROTEIN TO A WIDE VARIETY OF CELL TYPES. POROS USES AN ACOUSTIC DRIVE TO PUSH CELLS THROUGH AN ARRAY OF NOZZLES ONE CELL AT A TIME, THUS CREATING SHEAR FORCE THAT PORATES THE CELLS. IN THIS SBIR PROGRAM, OPENCELL IS EXPANDING THE CAPABILITIES OF ITS POROS PLATFORM BY DEVELOPING HIGHER CAPACITY POROS DEVICES. APPROACH: IN THIS PHASE II PROJECT, OPENCELL WILL DEVELOP A HIGH CAPACITY VERSION OF POROS, CAPABLE OF TREATING A LARGER NUMBER OF CELLS TO ENABLE CAR-T DEVELOPMENT. WE WILL DEVELOP A PROTOTYPE POROS DEVICE, CAPABLE OF TREATING 1-5 × 108 CELLS IN UNDER 10 MINUTES, AND DEMONSTRATE GENE EDITING IN T CELLS AS A PROOF-OF- CONCEPT EXPERIMENT. THE POROS DEVICE DEVELOPMENT WILL PAVE THE WAY FOR DEVELOPMENT OF A LARGE, ALL-IN-ONE, GMP-COMPLIANT POROS-GIGA DEVICE, FOR MANUFACTURING OF OFF-THE-SHELF CELLULAR THERAPEUTICS. ADDITIONALLY, THE POROS UNIT DEVELOPED IN THIS PHASE II PROJECT WILL ALSO BE A SALABLE UNIT OF ITS OWN WITH ANTICIPATED APPLICATIONS IN RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT, PERSONALIZED MEDICINE AND SMALL BATCH PRODUCTION OF CELLS FOR AUTOLOGOUS CELL THERAPIES AND FOR CLINICAL TRIALS.

NSF POSE: PHASE II: TRANSITIONING ROSETTA COMMONS TO A SELF-SUSTAINABLE OPEN SOURCE ECOSYSTEM -THIS PROJECT IS FUNDED BY THE PATHWAYS TO ENABLE OPEN-SOURCE ECOSYSTEMS (POSE) PROGRAM WHICH SEEKS TO HARNESS THE POWER OF OPEN-SOURCE DEVELOPMENT FOR THE CREATION OF NEW TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS TO PROBLEMS OF NATIONAL AND SOCIETAL IMPORTANCE. THE ROSETTA COMMUNITY HAS LED THE FIELD OF PROTEIN AND RNA MODELING AND DESIGN WITH STATE-OF-THE-ART BIOMOLECULAR MODELING AND DESIGN SOFTWARE, HIGH-IMPACT SCIENTIFIC ADVANCES ENABLED BY THE SOFTWARE, AND A WORKFORCE WITH BEST-IN-CLASS BIOMOLECULAR ENGINEERING TRAINING. THE BIOMOLECULAR MODELING LANDSCAPE IS RAPIDLY CHANGING WITH THE EMERGENCE OF POWERFUL MACHINE LEARNING METHODS, AND THE RECENT ENTRY OF SEVERAL COMPUTATIONALLY DESIGNED PROTEINS INTO CLINICAL TRIALS HAVE MARKED AN INFLECTION POINT IN THE HISTORY OF THE FIELD. THESE DISRUPTIONS HAVE PROMPTED THE ROSETTA COMMUNITY TO REIMAGINE THEIR PRACTICES TO ENABLE CONTINUED LEADERSHIP AND INNOVATION IN THE NEXT ERA OF BIOMOLECULAR MODELING. SPECIFICALLY, ROSETTA?S EXISTING PAID COMMERCIAL LICENSE MODEL LIMITS ROSETTA?S ACCESSIBILITY AND IMPACT, AND DE-INCENTIVIZES CRITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS FROM INDUSTRY SCIENTISTS. SECOND, ROSETTA'S REMARKABLE SUCCESS HAS LED TO DRAMATIC EXPANSION OF BOTH THE SOFTWARE AND COMMUNITY, YET THE OPERATIONAL STRUCTURE OF THE COMMUNITY HAS NOT BEEN UPDATED ACCORDINGLY, LIMITING WORKFORCE GROWTH, SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT, AND THE DIVERSITY OF PERSPECTIVES THAT ULTIMATELY LEAD TO HIGHER-IMPACT SCIENTIFIC ADVANCES. THIS PROJECT WILL CREATE OPPORTUNITIES FOR COORDINATED AND STRATEGIC SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT BY LEVERAGING, GROWING, AND SUPPORTING THE ROSETTA COMMUNITY TO PROVIDE BEST-IN-CLASS SOFTWARE. THE PROJECT WILL SERVE THE NATIONAL INTEREST BY DRIVING THE NEXT GENERATION OF THE LEADING BIOMOLECULAR MODELING AND DESIGN SOFTWARE THAT ENABLES SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY AND INNOVATION ACROSS THE HEALTH, FOOD, AND ENERGY SECTORS. OUR OVERALL GOAL OF THIS PROJECT IS TO TRANSITION THE ROSETTA COMMONS TO AN OPEN-SOURCE ENVIRONMENT. SPECIFICALLY, THE TEAM WILL (1) DRIVE COLLABORATIVE DEVELOPMENT, GOVERNANCE AND ADOPTION OF NEW ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) TECHNOLOGIES IN MOLECULAR MODELING THROUGH OPEN LICENSES; (2) DEVELOP STANDARDIZED APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACES (APIS), WORKFLOWS, DOCUMENTATION STANDARDS, AND TUTORIALS TO FUEL THE GROWTH OF THE OPEN-SOURCE ECOSYSTEM (OSE), WHILE MAINTAINING DESIRABLE LEVELS OF SOFTWARE QUALITY, SECURITY AND ACCESSIBILITY; (3) PROVIDE SUPPORT AND MAINTENANCE FOR KEY INFRASTRUCTURE, (4) DEVELOP A NEW GOVERNANCE MODEL TO EMPOWER LEADERS IN THE COMMUNITY TO ENSURE LONG-TERM SUSTAINABILITY AND BROAD IMPACT OF THE PROJECTS. THIS WORK EXPANDS THE OPEN ROSETTA ECOSYSTEM BEYOND THE TRADITIONAL ROSETTA CODEBASE, AND IT ALLOWS THE COMMUNITY TO CREATE SCIENTIFIC BREAKTHROUGHS THROUGH COMPLEX WORKFLOWS WITH OR WITHOUT TRADITIONAL ROSETTA. 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 PLANNED FOR THIS AWARD.

POSE: PHASE II: OPEN-SOURCE ECOSYSTEM TO ENABLE OPEN SCHOLARSHIP -OPEN SCIENCE, ALSO CALLED OPEN RESEARCH OR OPEN SCHOLARSHIP, IS A MOVEMENT THAT ADVANCES THE FREE AND OPEN SHARING OF RESEARCH. THE GOAL OF OPEN SCIENCE IS TO MAKE THE RESEARCH PROCESS OPEN FOR REVIEW BY EVERYONE WITH THE GOAL OF IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF SCIENTIFIC RESULTS AND USEFULNESS OF SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERIES. TOOLS ARE NEEDED TO ENCOURAGE AND SUPPORT RESEARCHERS TO WORK TOGETHER, SHARE DATA AND ANALYSES, AND DISCOVER AND REUSE RESEARCH. THE CENTER FOR OPEN SCIENCE (COS) HAS BUILT AND MAINTAINS THE OPEN SCIENCE FRAMEWORK (OSF), WHICH IS A FREE, OPEN-SOURCE PLATFORM THAT PROVIDES THESE TOOLS. RESEARCHERS USE THIS PLATFORM TO MANAGE AND CONDUCT THEIR RESEARCH WHILE FOLLOWING OPEN SCIENCE PRACTICES. THE INVOLVEMENT OF RESEARCH COMMUNITIES IN THE CO-DEVELOPMENT OF THE TOOLS THAT SUPPORT THEM IN PRACTICING OPEN SCIENCE IS IMPORTANT TO SECURE ROBUST AND LONG-STANDING SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE. THIS NSF POSE PHASE II AWARD CREATES A DISTRIBUTED OPEN SOURCE ECOSYSTEM (OSE) AROUND THE OSF: THE OPEN SCHOLARSHIP OSE.

NSF POSE: PHASE 2: OPEN HEALTHWARE OPEN-SOURCE ECOSYSTEM (OSE) -OPEN-SOURCE HARDWARE HAS BEEN INSTRUMENTAL IN ENABLING RAPID RESPONSE AND PREVENTING SUPPLY CHAIN ISSUES IN CRITICAL MOMENTS. FOR EXAMPLE, THE DISTRIBUTED MANUFACTURING OF OPEN-SOURCE FACE SHIELDS ASSISTED IN PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT PRODUCTION DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC. OPEN-SOURCE HARDWARE CAN ALSO ENABLE LOW-INCOME OR LOW-ACCESS POPULATIONS TO BUILD AND CUSTOMIZE VITAL MEDICAL EQUIPMENT AND SPUR INNOVATION. SHARING DESIGNS MAKES IT POSSIBLE FOR OTHERS TO CUSTOMIZE AND AUGMENT THE DEVICE FOR VARIOUS POPULATIONS WITH HEALTH AUGMENTATION NEEDS. THE OPEN-SOURCE HARDWARE ASSOCIATION LEADERSHIP HAS IDENTIFIED KEY NEEDS FOR THE OPEN-SOURCE HEALTH HARDWARE COMMUNITY: A CENTRAL DATABASE WHERE INVENTORS, MAKERS, USERS, RESEARCHERS, AND MANUFACTURERS REGISTER AND SEARCH FOR DESIGNS; QUALITY ASSURANCE AND TESTING OF DESIGNS; AND GREATER SUPPORT FOR MATERIAL SOURCING, VETTING, AND SUBSTITUTION. TO ADDRESS THESE NEEDS, THE OPEN-SOURCE HARDWARE ASSOCIATION (OSHWA) SEEKS TO PROVIDE AN OPEN HEALTHWARE OPEN-SOURCE ECOSYSTEM (OSE). IN THE FIRST YEAR, OSHWA WILL FOCUS ON FACILITATING AN AGREEMENT FOR THE STANDARDIZATION OF A HEALTH-RELATED CERTIFICATION, DEVELOPING ON-RAMPS FOR THE HEALTH-RELATED HARDWARE COMMUNITY TO LEARN ABOUT OPEN HARDWARE, AND BUILDING EDUCATIONAL CAMPAIGNS AND WORKSHOPS AROUND THE DOCUMENTATION NEEDED FOR THE NEW HEALTH-SPECIFIC CERTIFICATION. IN THE SECOND YEAR, OSHWA WILL FOCUS ON ISSUES AROUND QUALITY ASSURANCE AND SHARED TESTING PROTOCOLS, WHICH ARE CRITICAL FOR THE ADOPTION OF HEALTH HARDWARE OUTSIDE OF EMERGENCY USE AUTHORIZATION CIRCUMSTANCES. THIS OPEN HEALTHWARE OSE MAY BRING TOGETHER THE EMERGING OPEN-SOURCE HEALTH HARDWARE COMMUNITY AND ENCOURAGE THE SHARED DEVELOPMENT AND ADVANCEMENT OF HEALTH-RELATED HARDWARE DESIGNS. THIS INITIATIVE WILL CENTRALIZE DISPARATE EFFORTS IN THE COMMUNITY TO COLLECT AND GIVE ACCESS TO HEALTH HARDWARE DESIGNS, PROVIDE GUIDANCE FOR LICENSING AND DOCUMENTATION TO ENABLE ADOPTION AND REPLICABILITY, AND PROVIDE TESTING AND QUALITY ASSURANCE FOR THE SOURCE. THE OSHWA CERTIFICATION PROGRAM (CERTIFICATION.OSHWA.ORG) HAS INDEPENDENTLY VERIFIED AND CERTIFIED OVER TWO THOUSAND PIECES OF OPEN-SOURCE HARDWARE IN OVER 50 COUNTRIES. OSHWA'S COMMUNAL OPEN-SOURCE HARDWARE DEFINITION (OSHWA.ORG/DEFINITION) IS USED BY TENS OF THOUSANDS OF PROJECTS, HAS BEEN VIEWED OVER ONE MILLION TIMES, AND IS THE DE-FACTO STANDARD FOR OPEN-SOURCE HARDWARE. OSHWA IS ADVISED BY COMMUNITY MEMBERS FROM NON-PROFIT INDUSTRIES, FOR-PROFIT INDUSTRIES, AND ACADEMIA. THE DEVELOPMENT AND MATURATION OF THE OPEN HEALTH HARDWARE COMMUNITY WILL ULTIMATELY MULTIPLY THE AVAILABILITY AND UTILITY OF HARDWARE DESIGNS FOR HEALTH PROTECTION, MEASUREMENT, DIAGNOSES, AND TREATMENT. OPEN-SOURCE HARDWARE WILL INCREASE INNOVATION IN THE HEALTH SECTOR, PROVIDE ALTERNATIVE RESOURCES DURING PANDEMICS AND SUPPLY-CHAIN SHORTAGES, AND INCREASE ACCESS TO HEALTH HARDWARE. 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.

COMPUTER MODELING PLAYS A KEY ROLE IN MODERN SCIENCE, INCLUDING CHEMISTRY AND BIOLOGY, WHERE IT PROVIDES NEW SCIENTIFIC INSIGHTS AND DRIVES DISCOVERY, INCLUDING GUIDING THE DESIGN OF MOLECULES WITH SPECIFIC PROPERTIES FOR TARGET APPLICATIONS. HOWEVER, SOFTWARE QUALITY AND AVAILABILITY DELAYS PROGRESS, AS MANY NEW INNOVATIONS ARE POORLY IMPLEMENTED AND DIFFICULT TO USE, LOCKED BEHIND PAYWALLS, OR BOTH. AS A 501(C)(3) NONPROFIT, OMSF SEEKS TO UNLOCK NEW RESEARCH AND INNOVATION GLOBALLY VIA COLLABORATIVE DEVELOPMENT OF HIGH-QUALITY OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE, FREELY AVAILABLE TO THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY. OUR ORGANIZATION BRINGS TOGETHER RESEARCHERS FROM INDUSTRY AND ACADEMIA TO JOINTLY DEVELOP KEY RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURE FOR MOLECULAR SCIENCES AND SHARE THEIR EXPERTISE. IN THIS PROJECT, WE WILL 1) CREATE RESOURCES TO BETTER SUPPORT OPEN SOURCE MOLECULAR SOFTWARE PROJECTS AND THEIR COMMUNITIES, SUCH AS LEGAL AND TRAINING MATERIALS; 2) BUILD TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS TO IMPROVE SOFTWARE QUALITY AND SECURITY; AND 3) STRENGTHEN OMSF?S POSITION AS THE KEY PARTNER FOR MULTI-INSTITUTIONAL COLLABORATIVE OPEN SOURCE PROJECTS PUSHING THE SCIENTIFIC FRONTIER IN CHEMISTRY AND BIOLOGY. THIS PROJECT WILL BUILD AND SUPPORT STRONG AND DIVERSE OPEN SOURCE COMMUNITIES WITH TRANSPARENT GOVERNANCE AND DEVELOPMENT PRACTICES, HELPING ENSURE RESPONSIBLE AND SUSTAINABLE CREATION AND STEWARDSHIP OF FUTURE TECHNOLOGIES IN MOLECULAR SCIENCES. THE OPEN MOLECULAR SOFTWARE FOUNDATION (OMSF) IS A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION WITH A MISSION TO FACILITATE COLLABORATION AND SUPPORT AN ECOSYSTEM OF OPEN SOURCE PROJECTS IN MOLECULAR SCIENCES. OMSF SEEKS TO ADDRESS THE CHALLENGES OF ESTABLISHING AND MANAGING MULTI-INSTITUTIONAL COLLABORATIONS, BUILD EXPERTISE IN MANAGING AND GOVERNING COLLABORATIVE OPEN SOURCE PROJECTS, IMPROVE RESEARCH SOFTWARE QUALITY AND EXPLORE PATHWAYS TO SUSTAINABILITY WHILE ACCELERATING INNOVATION. OUR AIM IS TO SUPPORT SYSTEMATIC PROGRESSION OF STATE-OF-THE-ART METHODS INTO STABLE, CUSTOMIZABLE, AND INTEROPERABLE SOFTWARE TO FURTHER EXPAND RESEARCH CAPABILITIES AND IMPROVE MODELING OUTCOMES. OUR APPROACH INVOLVES COLLABORATING WITH EXPERTS FROM INDUSTRY AND ACADEMIA, COORDINATION OF EFFORTS, POOLING RESOURCES AND MAKING RESULTING MATERIALS WIDELY AVAILABLE FOR REUSE AND FURTHER DEVELOPMENT TO ENABLE LARGE SCALE COLLABORATIONS AND MORE INCLUSIVE SCIENCE PRACTICES, AND TO UNLOCK NEW RESEARCH AND INNOVATION POTENTIAL ON A GLOBAL LEVEL. AS A PART OF THIS GRANT, OMSF WILL CREATE RESOURCES TO BETTER SUPPORT OPEN SOURCE PROJECTS AND THEIR COMMUNITIES, SUCH AS: 1) MOLECULAR SCIENCES OSE PLAYBOOK ? A COMBINATION OF LEGAL TEMPLATES, ONBOARDING GUIDES AND TRAINING MATERIALS FOR USERS AND CONTRIBUTORS, AND GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT PROCESSES FOR PROJECTS; 2) TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS TO IMPROVE SOFTWARE QUALITY AND SECURITY, SUCH AS REUSABLE KIT FRAMEWORKS, PROJECT COOKIECUTTERS, AUTOMATED TESTING ON DIFFERENT HARDWARE PLATFORMS, AND DEPLOYMENT VIA DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS; AND 3) IMPROVED ORGANIZATIONAL FRAMEWORK FOR LARGE, DISTRIBUTED AND COLLABORATIVE PROJECTS AND A ?NEUTRAL GROUND? FOR THE WIDER COMMUNITY TO TACKLE COMMON INFRASTRUCTURE CHALLENGES IN COMPUTATIONAL MOLECULAR SCIENCES. 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 PLANNED FOR THIS AWARD.

SBIR PHASE II: AN AUTOMATED PLATFORM FOR RAPID DISCOVERY IN CELL BIOLOGY

ONIX: A NEURAL ACQUISITION SYSTEM FOR UNENCUMBERED, CLOSED-LOOP RECORDINGS IN SMALL, FREELY MOVING ANIMALS - PROJECT SUMMARY OVER THE LAST CENTURY, EXTRACELLULAR RECORDING TECHNOLOGIES HAVE PROGRESSED FROM HANDMADE NEEDLE ELECTRODES AND VACUUM TUBE AMPLIFIERS TO MICROFABRICATED DEVICES CONTAINING HUNDREDS OF RECORDING SITES AND ON-CHIP DIGITIZATION CIRCUITS. THIS TECHNOLOGICAL ARC HAS FACILITATED NOBEL-PRIZE WINNING DISCOVERIES SUCH AS THE UNITARY NATURE OF ACTION POTENTIALS, THE COMPUTATIONS UNDERLYING MAMMALIAN VISION, AND THE NEURAL BASIS OF SPATIAL LEARNING, AMONG MANY OTHER NOTABLE FINDINGS. TO STUDY INCREASINGLY SOPHISTICATED ASPECTS OF BRAIN FUNCTION, TECHNICAL DEVELOPMENT HAS BEEN DRIVEN BY TWO COMPETING GOALS: (1) PERMITTING HIGH-FIDELITY COMMUNICATION WITH AS MANY NEURONS AS POSSIBLE AND (2) MINIMIZING THE IMPACT OF RECORDINGS ON NORMAL ANIMAL BEHAVIOR. WHILE GREAT PROGRESS HAS BEEN MADE ON THE FIRST GOAL, THERE IS GROWING RECOGNITION THAT INCREASED EFFORT MUST BE ALLOTTED TO REDUCE THE BEHAVIORAL BURDEN OF NEURAL IMPLANTS, ESPECIALLY IN MICE. TOWARD THIS END, OPEN EPHYS INC. PROPOSES TO CREATE ONIX, A HIGH-PERFORMANCE NEURAL RECORDING ECOSYSTEM THAT PERMITS UNENCUMBERED MOUSE BEHAVIOR FOR ARBITRARILY LONG RECORDING SESSIONS IN LARGE, COMPLEX ENVIRONMENTS. A KEY COMPONENT OF ONIX WILL BE HEAD-MOUNTED DEVICES THAT MEASURE THEIR OWN POSITION AND ORIENTATION. THIS INFORMATION IS SENT TO A LOW-COST, EASY-TO-INSTALL CABLE ROBOT THAT KEEPS THE ONIX ULTRA-LIGHT TETHER APPROXIMATELY VERTICAL AT ALL TIMES WHILE COMPENSATING FOR TETHER INDUCED HEAD TORQUE. THIS ENABLES, FOR THE FIRST TIME, RECORDINGS DURING UNENCUMBERED NATURALISTIC MOUSE BEHAVIOR. FURTHER, USING ADVANCED DIGITAL CIRCUITRY, ONIX WILL BE PROBE-AGNOSTIC AND CAPABLE OF WORKING WITH ALL MODERN RECORDING DEVICES, INCLUDING INTAN CHIPS, NEUROPIXELS, AND MINIATURE ENDOSCOPES FOR CALCIUM IMAGING. ONIX WILL SEAMLESSLY INTEGRATE INTO EXISTING, WIDELY USED SOFTWARE SUCH AS THE OPEN EPHYS GUI, BONSAI, AND DEEPLABCUT LIVE FOR MAXIMUM MARKET PENETRATION WITHOUT REQUIRING LABS TO LEARN NEW TOOLS OR MODIFY ACQUISITION WORKFLOWS. IN SUMMARY, ONIX WILL PROVIDE HIGH-BANDWIDTH, CLOSED-LOOP PERFORMANCE WITHOUT BURDENING MICE IN ROOM-SCALE 3D ENVIRONMENTS. IN COMBINATION WITH OTHER INNOVATIVE TOOLS FOR RICH, QUANTITATIVE MEASUREMENT OF ANIMAL BEHAVIOR, ONIX WILL ACCELERATE THE FIELD TOWARDS A GOLDEN AGE OF QUANTITATIVE NEUROETHOLOGY.

NSF PD 19-125Y - SCIENCE OF SCIENCE: DISCOVERY, COMMUNICATION, AND IMPACT (SOS:DCI) -RANDOMIZED CONTROL TRIAL OF THE REGISTERED REPORTS PUBLISHING FORMAT -THE REGISTERED REPORTS (RR) PUBLISHING MODEL COULD BE TRANSFORMATIVE TO HOW RESEARCH IS CONDUCTED, PEER REVIEWED, AND PUBLISHED. RRS COULD ALTER INCENTIVES FOR RESEARCHERS TOWARD FOCUSING ON ASKING IMPORTANT QUESTIONS AND USING STRONG METHODOLOGY TO TEST THOSE QUESTIONS, AND AWAY FROM THE DEMAND FOR EXCITING, PROVOCATIVE RESULTS WHATEVER THEIR CREDIBILITY. ULTIMATELY, RRS CAN IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF PEER REVIEW AND SCHOLARLY COMMUNICATION, THUS IMPROVING THE RIGOR, TRANSPARENCY, AND REPRODUCIBILITY OF RESEARCH. LARGE-SCALE ADOPTION OF RRS COULD FUNDAMENTALLY CHANGE HOW RESEARCH IS EVALUATED AND COMMUNICATED. IN A RR, AUTHORS SUBMIT A PAPER DETAILING THE RESEARCH QUESTION AND PROPOSED METHODOLOGY TO TEST THE QUESTION PRIOR TO OBSERVING THE STUDY OUTCOMES. IN THE FIRST STAGE OF PEER REVIEW, REVIEWERS ASSESS THE IMPORTANCE OF THE QUESTION AND THE QUALITY OF THE METHODOLOGY PROPOSED TO INVESTIGATE IT. IF THE PAPER PASSES THIS STAGE OF PEER REVIEW, THE AUTHORS RECEIVE ?IN-PRINCIPLE ACCEPTANCE? MEANING THAT THE JOURNAL COMMITS TO PUBLISHING THE PAPER REGARDLESS OF OUTCOMES AS LONG AS THE AUTHORS FOLLOW THROUGH WITH COMPETENT EXECUTION AND REPORTING OF THE RESEARCH. THE SECOND STAGE OF PEER REVIEW, AFTER THE RESULTS ARE KNOWN AND ADDED TO THE PAPER, ASSESSES ADHERENCE TO THE ORIGINAL COMMITMENTS, CLARITY OF THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN PLANNED AND UNPLANNED ANALYSES, AND ACCURACY OF INTERPRETATION OF FINDINGS, AND NOT WHETHER THE RESULTS ARE POSITIVE, INTERESTING, OR CONSISTENT WITH HYPOTHESES. GIVEN THE POTENTIALLY TRANSFORMATIVE IMPACT OF RRS ON THE RESEARCH PROCESS, IT IS ESSENTIAL TO CONDUCT A RANDOMIZED TRIAL TO EVALUATE THE MODEL?S QUALITIES. BY COLLABORATING WITH JOURNALS, WE WILL CONDUCT A RANDOMIZED TRIAL OF RRS IN AN ECOLOGICALLY VALID CONTEXT. 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.
