U.S. ATLAS OPERATIONS: DISCOVERY AND MEASUREMENT AT THE ENERGY FRONTIER

BIOLOGY WITH X-RAY LASERS

U.S. ATLAS OPERATIONS: DISCOVERY AND MEASUREMENT AT THE ENERGY FRONTIER -RESEARCHERS IN HIGH ENERGY PHYSICS SEEK TO UNDERSTAND THE FUNDAMENTAL NATURE OF MATTER AND THE BASIC FORCES THROUGH WHICH IT INTERACTS. ONE WAY THEY DO THIS IS BY OBSERVING WHAT HAPPENS WHEN COUNTER-ROTATING BEAMS OF PROTONS COLLIDE. THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE DEBRIS PRODUCED IN THE COLLISIONS CAN REVEAL THE BASIC PHYSICS OF FUNDAMENTAL PARTICLES AND THE FORCES BETWEEN THEM. HIGHLY SOPHISTICATED PARTICLE DETECTORS AND ANALYSIS METHODS ARE REQUIRED TO MEASURE THESE CHARACTERISTICS. NSF PROVIDES FUNDING TO U.S. RESEARCHERS TO CONDUCT RESEARCH IN EXPERIMENTAL HIGH ENERGY PHYSICS USING THE ATLAS DETECTOR AT THE LARGE HADRON COLLIDER (LHC), THE WORLD?S PREMIER LABORATORY FOR THIS RESEARCH. IN ADDITION TO DIRECTLY SUPPORTING RESEARCH ACTIVITIES, NSF WILL PROVIDE, VIA THIS AWARD, FUNDING TO TWENTY-TWO U.S. UNIVERSITIES TO MAINTAIN THE OPERATION OF U.S.-SUPPLIED COMPONENTS OF THE ATLAS DETECTOR AND ITS SUPPORTING SOFTWARE AND COMPUTING SYSTEMS, DEVELOP NEW SOFTWARE TOOLS, AND INSTALL AND COMMISSION DETECTOR ENHANCEMENTS IN PREPARATION FOR MORE INTENSE OPERATION PLANNED TO COMMENCE IN 2027. THIS AWARD WILL ALSO PROMOTE SCIENCE EDUCATION AND PROMOTE DIVERSE PARTICIPATION IN RESEARCH. THE LARGE HADRON COLLIDER IS LOCATED AT THE EUROPEAN ORGANIZATION FOR NUCLEAR RESEARCH (CERN) NEAR GENEVA SWITZERLAND. U.S. PARTICIPATION IN ATLAS WILL STIMULATE THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICALLY EDUCATED WORKFORCE, ADVANCING THE MULTIDISCIPLINARY APPLICATION OF TECHNOLOGY, AND THE POPULARIZATION AND DISSEMINATION OF SCIENCE TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC. THE AWARD WILL SUPPORT ACTIVITIES THAT PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES TO DEVELOP AND MAINTAIN COMPLEX DETECTOR APPARATUS, CUSTOM ANALOG AND DIGITAL ELECTRONICS AND SOFTWARE SYSTEMS FOR DATA MANAGEMENT, AND TO SUPPORT DATA PROCESSING AND TECHNICAL ANALYSES OF DETECTOR SYSTEMS. TECHNICAL PROFESSIONALS ARE REQUIRED TO PERFORM MANY OF THESE TASKS, INCREASING THE EXPERTISE OF THE U.S. WORK FORCE. THE OPERATION OF EXISTING DETECTOR COMPONENTS, DESIGN OF UPGRADE COMPONENTS, AND RELATED RESEARCH ACTIVITIES CREATE OPPORTUNITIES FOR INTERDISCIPLINARY COLLABORATION AMONG UNIVERSITY PHYSICS PERSONNEL, UNIVERSITY PERSONNEL IN ENGINEERING DEPARTMENTS, AND PHYSICS DEPARTMENT TECHNICAL PERSONNEL AS PHYSICISTS, ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS, MECHANICAL ENGINEERS AND COMPUTER SCIENTISTS WORK WITH POST-DOCS AND STUDENTS. SIMILARLY, PHYSICS PERSONNEL WILL WORK CLOSELY WITH COMPUTING PROFESSIONALS AT THEIR HOME INSTITUTIONS AND AT NATIONAL LABORATORIES TO SUPPORT THE VARIOUS SOFTWARE AND COMPUTING ACTIVITIES. TECHNICAL PART: THIS AWARD SUPPORTS THE DEVELOPMENT AND OPERATION OF THE INSTRUMENTATION AND ANALYSIS TOOLS THAT ARE ESSENTIAL TO STUDYING DEBRIS FROM PROTON-PROTON COLLISIONS. THESE TOOLS ARE ESSENTIAL FOR ANSWERING BASIC, FOUNDATIONAL QUESTIONS, SUCH AS ?WHAT IS THE ORIGIN OF MASS OF THE ELEMENTARY PARTICLES?? THE HIGGS BOSON DISCOVERY, A PHYSICAL MANIFESTATION OF THE MECHANISM THAT GENERATES ELEMENTARY PARTICLE MASSES, LED TO THE 2013 PHYSICS NOBEL PRIZE THAT WAS AWARDED TO PETER HIGGS AND FRANCOIS ENGLERT. IS THAT THE END OF THE STORY, OR ARE THERE OTHER, AS-OF-YET UNDISCOVERED, CONTRIBUTIONS TO THIS PROCESS? OTHER FUNDAMENTAL QUESTIONS, EQUALLY IMPORTANT, MAY HAVE ANSWERS THAT DEPEND, AT LEAST IN PART, ON THE PHYSICS OBSERVED THROUGH THE CONTINUED OPERATION AND ANALYSIS OF DATA OBTAINED FROM THE LHC. ?WHAT IS THE DARK MATTER THAT ACCOUNTS FOR 25% OF THE MASS OF THE UNIVERSE? CAN DARK MATTER BE PRODUCED AND OBSERVED AT THE LHC? CAN EVIDENCE OF EXTRA DIMENSIONS PREDICTED IN SOME MODELS BE FOUND AT LHC ENERGIES? ARE THERE PARTICLES WITH EXOTIC PROPERTIES, UNLIKE ANY FORMS OF MATTER OBSERVED SO FAR, WHOSE EXISTENCE IS PREDICTED BY SOME THEORIES THAT EXTEND THE STANDARD MODEL OF ELEMENTARY PARTICLES?? IN EACH CASE, ANSWERING THE QUESTION REQUIRES THE AGGREGATION OF LARGE AMOUNTS OF DATA FROM WHICH TO DRAW MEANINGFUL STATISTICAL INFERENCES. THIS AWARD WILL ENABLE RESEARCHERS TO DOUBLE THE AMOUNT OF DATA COLLECTED FOR ANALYSIS AND INVESTIGATIONS OF THESE PHENOMENA. IT WILL ENABLE PREPARATIONS THAT WILL LEAD TO FUTURE COLLECTION OF ABOUT TEN TIMES THE CURRENTLY AVAILABLE DATA. 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.

AI INSTITUTE FOR TRANSFORMING EDUCATION FOR CHILDREN WITH SPEECH AND LANGUAGE PROCESSING CHALLENGES -IT IS ESTIMATED THAT MORE THAN 3.4 MILLION CHILDREN NEED SPEECH AND LANGUAGE RELATED SERVICES IN THE US SCHOOL SYSTEM, YET THERE ARE LESS THAN SIXTY-ONE THOUSAND SPEECH-LANGUAGE PATHOLOGISTS (SLPS) TO SERVE THEM. THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC HAS FURTHER EXACERBATED THIS GAP, MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE FOR SLPS TO PROVIDE INDIVIDUALIZED SERVICES FOR CHILDREN. THE AI INSTITUTE FOR TRANSFORMING EDUCATION FOR CHILDREN WITH SPEECH AND LANGUAGE PROCESSING CHALLENGES AIMS TO CLOSE THIS GAP BY DEVELOPING ADVANCED AI TECHNOLOGIES TO SCALE SLPS' AVAILABILITY AND SERVICES SUCH THAT NO CHILD IN NEED OF SPEECH AND LANGUAGE SERVICES IS LEFT BEHIND. TOWARDS THIS END, THE INSTITUTE PROPOSES TO DEVELOP TWO NOVEL AI SOLUTIONS: (1) THE AI SCREENER TO ENABLE UNIVERSAL EARLY SCREENING FOR ALL CHILDREN, AND (2) THE AI ORCHESTRATOR TO WORK WITH SLPS TO PROVIDE INDIVIDUALIZED INTERVENTIONS FOR CHILDREN WITH THEIR FORMAL INDIVIDUALIZED EDUCATIONAL PLAN (IEP). IN DEVELOPING THESE SOLUTIONS, THE INSTITUTE WILL ADVANCE FOUNDATIONAL AI TECHNOLOGIES, ENHANCE UNDERSTANDING OF CHILDREN'S SPEECH AND LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT, SERVE AS A NEXUS POINT FOR SPECIAL EDUCATION STAKEHOLDERS, AND REPRESENT A FUNDAMENTAL PARADIGM SHIFT IN HOW SLPS SERVE CHILDREN IN NEED OF ABILITY BASED SPEECH AND LANGUAGE SERVICES. THE AI SCREENER WILL BE INITIALLY DEPLOYED IN EARLY CHILDHOOD CLASSROOMS AND WILL ANALYZE VIDEO AND AUDIO STREAMS OF CHILDREN'S CLASSROOM INTERACTIONS, DERIVE CONVENTIONAL SPEECH AND LANGUAGE MEASURES USED BY SLPS, AND ASSESS NOVEL AND HARD TO OBTAIN AUTOMATICITY MEASURES. THE AI ORCHESTRATOR IS A SUPERSET OF THE AI SCREENER WITH ITS MAIN APPLICATION IN THE PUBLIC SCHOOL CLASSROOMS. IT WILL HELP SLPS TO ADMINISTER A WIDE RANGE OF EVIDENCE-BASED INTERVENTIONS AND ASSESS THEIR EFFECTS ON MEETING CHILDREN'S INDIVIDUAL IEP LEARNING TARGETS. AT THE CORE OF THE ORCHESTRATOR IS A ROBUST MULTI-AGENT REINFORCEMENT LEARNING FRAMEWORK THAT CAN EVALUATE THE POTENTIAL BENEFITS OF DIFFERENT INTERVENTION PRACTICES AND RECOMMEND THOSE MOST APPROPRIATE FOR EACH CHILD. BOTH SOLUTIONS WILL PUSH SIGNIFICANT ADVANCES IN SELF-SUPERVISED LEARNING TO ADDRESS SPARSE AND NOISY DATA ISSUES, MULTIMODALITY PERCEPTION, LEARNING MATERIAL REWRITING AND ENRICHMENT, AND EDGE AI FOR REAL TIME PROCESSING. THE INSTITUTE WILL DEVELOP HUMAN CENTERED AI DESIGN METHODOLOGIES TO EMBODY THE SOLUTIONS IN A FORM APPROPRIATE FOR CHILDREN?S LEARNING. EDUCATION RESEARCH AND THE LEARNING SCIENCES WILL INFORM THE INITIAL PROTOTYPING AND VALIDATION, AND WILL DERIVE VALUABLE INSIGHTS FROM THE FIELD DEPLOYED SOLUTIONS. THE NATIONAL CENTER FOR SPECIAL EDUCATION RESEARCH AT THE INSTITUTE OF EDUCATION SCIENCES OF THE US DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION IS PARTNERING WITH NSF TO PROVIDE FUNDING FOR THE INSTITUTE. 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.

UB MICROBIOME CENTER GNOTOBIOTIC ANIMAL RESEARCH FACILITY - PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT THE UNIVERSITY AT BUFFALO (UB) REQUESTS FUNDS FOR CRITICAL RESEARCH RENOVATIONS AND INFRASTRUCTURE UPGRADES IN THE BIOMEDICAL EDUCATION BUILDING FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW GNOTOBIOTIC ANIMAL RESEARCH. NEARLY 700 KINDS OF MICROORGANISMS EXIST IN THE HUMAN ORAL CAVITY, MAKING IT ONE OF THE MOST COMPLEX MICROBIAL COMMUNITIES IN THE HUMAN BODY. THE EFFECTS OF THE ORAL MICROBIOME ON HUMAN HEALTH AND PATHOLOGY HAS BECOME INCREASINGLY CLEAR OVER THE PAST TWO DECADES, SIGNALING A REVOLUTION IN PERSPECTIVE REGARDING HOW THE ORAL MICROBIOME IMPACTS HUMAN HEALTH AND DISEASE. THE ORAL MICROBIOME HAS BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH DIVERSE DISEASE, INCLUDING SYSTEMIC DISEASE PHENOTYPES FROM INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASE AND COLON CANCER TO OSTEOPOROSIS AND CARDIOVASCULAR AND METABOLIC DISEASES. DUE TO THE COMPLEXITY OF THE MICROBIOME AND THE INFLUENCE OF THE MICROBIOTA ON THE HOST AND THE HOST’S EFFECT ON THE MICROBIAL COMMUNITIES, GNOTOBIOTIC ANIMAL MODELS OFFER A CAREFULLY CONTROLLED ARENA TO INTERROGATE MICROBIOME-SPECIFIC HYPOTHESES. USING THESE MODELS, HUMAN MICROBIOMES FROM VARIOUS DISEASE STATES CAN RECAPITULATE AND INTERFACE DISEASE STATES IN CONVENTIONALIZED GERM-FREE ANIMAL HOSTS. USING THIS APPROACH, WE CAN MOVE FROM EPIDEMIOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION STUDIES IN HUMANS INTO TRUE EXPERIMENTAL SCIENCE WHERE HYPOTHESES CAN BE GENERATED, TESTED, AND VALIDATED PRODUCING TRANSFORMATIVE SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERIES. CURRENTLY, THE WESTERN NEW YORK REGION LACKS A CENTRALIZED GNOTOBIOTIC FACILITY TO ENABLE THIS TYPE OF RESEARCH AND THE CLOSEST OTHER FACILITIES IN NEW YORK ARE LOCATED IN NEW YORK CITY, ALMOST 400 MILES AWAY. THIS PROPOSAL WILL CONVERT ~4,000 NET SQ. FT. OF FORMER PRIMATE ANIMAL RESEARCH SPACE INTO A NEW GNOTOBIOTIC ANIMAL RESEARCH FACILITY. THIS FACILITY WILL BE AN INTEGRAL COMPONENT OF THE GROWING UB MICROBIOME CENTER THAT WILL BE ACCESSIBLE TO ALL RESEARCH TEAMS FROM UB, ROSWELL PARK COMPREHENSIVE CANCER CENTER AND OTHER REGIONAL UNIVERSITIES. THIS PROJECT WILL BENEFIT NUMEROUS NIH-SUPPORTED LABORATORY RESEARCH PROGRAMS, INCLUDING 12 ACTIVE NIH RESEARCH GRANTS TOTALING APPROXIMATELY $4.6M IN ANNUAL DIRECT COSTS, WITH DIRECT ACCESS TO GERM-FREE MICE AND GNOTOBIOTIC FACILITIES IN ORDER TO ADVANCE THEIR SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERIES. THE GOALS OF THIS APPLICATION ARE TO: 1) CREATE A STATE-OF- THE-ART GNOTOBIOTIC ANIMAL RESEARCH FACILITY AND PHYSICAL HOME FOR THE UB MICROBIOME CENTER GNOTOBIOTIC ANIMAL RESEARCH FACILITY; 2) OFFER TRAINING FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF SCIENTISTS IN THE USE GNOTOBIOTIC ANIMALS TO ALLOW THEM TO TAKE THE TECHNOLOGIES AND EXPERIENCES INTO THEIR NEXT CAREER PHASE; AND 3) ENSURE A SAFE AND APPROPRIATE ENVIRONMENT TO SUPPORT NIH-FUNDED INVESTIGATORS AND RESEARCH PROGRAMS FOCUSED ON MICROBIOME RESEARCH ON ALL THREE UB CAMPUSES, AT NEARBY ROSWELL PARK COMPREHENSIVE CANCER CENTER, AND OTHER REGIONAL/NATIONAL UNIVERSITIES. PLANNING WAS DEVELOPED IN CONSULTATION WITH ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING FIRMS WITH EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE IN BIOMEDICAL LABORATORY DESIGN AND GREEN DESIGN PRINCIPLES. THE PROJECT MANAGEMENT TEAM INCLUDES THE SENIOR ASSOCIATE DEAN FOR RESEARCH (PI), DIRECTOR OF VETERINARY AND LABORATORY ANIMAL SERVICES (FACILITIES MANAGER), AND ASSISTANT DIRECTOR, FACILITIES DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION (PROJECT MANAGER).

5-COG PARADIGM TO IMPROVE DETECTION OF COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT IN PRIMARY CARE: PRAGMATIC CLINICAL TRIAL - COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT RELATED TO DEMENTIA IS FREQUENTLY UNDER-DIAGNOSED IN PRIMARY CARE SETTINGS. THIS PROBLEM IS MORE PREVALENT IN HEALTH DISPARITIES POPULATIONS. WE DEVELOPED THE 5-COG BRIEF COGNITIVE ASSESSMENT THAT IS SIMPLE TO USE, STANDARDIZED, TAKES <5 MINUTES, DOES NOT REQUIRE INFORMANTS, AND ACCOUNTS FOR MAJOR TECHNICAL, CULTURAL, AND LOGISTICAL BARRIERS OF CURRENT ASSESSMENTS. WE ARE PRESENTLY CONDUCTING A SIMPLE RANDOMIZED CLINICAL TRIAL TO EXAMINE THE CLINICAL EFFICACY OF THE 5-COG PARADIGM (5-COG BRIEF COGNITIVE ASSESSMENT PAIRED WITH A CLINICAL DECISION-MAKING TOOL) TO IMPROVE DEMENTIA CARE IN 1,200 PREDOMINANTLY MINORITY SAMPLE OF OLDER ADULTS WITH COGNITIVE CONCERNS PRESENTING TO A PRIMARY CARE CLINIC IN THE BRONX. INTERIM ANALYSIS REVEALED THAT THE 5-COG PARADIGM RESULTED IN AN OVER 8-FOLD INCREASE IN NEW COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT DIAGNOSES AND OVER 3-FOLD INCREASE IN IMPROVED DEMENTIA CARE ACTIONS BY PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIANS COMPARED TO AN ACTIVE CONTROL ARM. FOLLOWING UP ON THESE VERY PROMISING RESULTS, IN THIS RENEWAL, WE PROPOSE A HYBRID TYPE 1 EFFECTIVENESS-IMPLEMENTATION DESIGN IN REAL-WORLD SETTINGS TO ADAPT AND TEST THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE 5-COG PARADIGM TO INCREASE DETECTION OF COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT CARE IN OLDER ADULTS PRESENTING WITH COGNITIVE CONCERNS. STUDY AIMS INCLUDE: 1. TO EVALUATE, USING A PRAGMATIC CLUSTER-RANDOMIZED TRIAL DESIGN, THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE 5-COG PARADIGM TO INCREASE ‘INCIDENT COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT’ DETECTION (NEW MCI AND DEMENTIA DIAGNOSES) RELATIVE TO ENHANCED USUAL CARE IN 6,600 OLDER PATIENTS PRESENTING WITH COGNITIVE CONCERNS IN 22 PRIMARY CARE CLINICS IN BRONX AND INDIANA. AS DIAGNOSIS WITHOUT ACTION WILL NOT IMPROVE PATIENT CARE, ‘IMPROVED DEMENTIA CARE’ WILL BE EXAMINED AS A SECONDARY OUTCOME. RESULTS WILL ALSO BE EXAMINED IN NIH DESIGNATED HEALTH DISPARITY POPULATIONS INCLUDING MINORITY, SOCIO-ECONOMICALLY CHALLENGED, AND RURAL UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS. 2. TO MEASURE, USING MIXED METHODS GUIDED BY THE CONSOLIDATED FRAMEWORK FOR IMPLEMENTATION RESEARCH, THE MECHANISMS AND THE MODERATORS OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE 5-COG PARADIGM IN THE DIVERSE PRIMARY CARE CLINICS. 3. TO ASSESS THE COST EFFECTIVENESS OF THE 5-COG PARADIGM FROM A SOCIETAL PERSPECTIVE. THIS PROPOSED STUDY, WHICH IS HIGHLY RESPONSIVE TO RFA-NS-22-009, FOCUSES ON SCALABLE APPROACHES TO ADDRESS THE UNMET NEED OF EARLY DETECTION OF INCIDENT COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT, INCLUDING IN POPULATIONS THAT EXPERIENCE HEALTH DISPARITIES.

NATIONAL HTX CENTER: ENABLING ACCESS TO STATE-OF-THE-ART CRYSTALLIZATION CAPABILITIES - PROJECT SUMMARY STRUCTURAL BIOLOGY IS A FIELD WITH A GOAL TO DELINEATE THE PHYSICAL ARCHITECTURE OF BIOLOGICAL MACROMOLECULES; A PRIMARY STRUCTURAL METHOD EMPLOYED IN THIS ENDEAVOR IS MACROMOLECULAR X- RAY CRYSTALLOGRAPHY (MX). MX METHODS ACCOUNT FOR NEARLY 90% OF THE GREATER THAN 165,000 STRUCTURES DEPOSITED TO THE PROTEIN DATA BANK, BUT A PRIMARY CHALLENGE TO SUCCESSFUL MX STRUCTURE DETERMINATION IS FINDING CONDITIONS IN WHICH A MACROMOLECULE WILL CRYSTALLIZE. TO ADDRESS THIS OBSTACLE, AN ARSENAL OF CHEMICAL COCKTAIL SCREENS AND HIGH-THROUGHPUT SCREENING METHODS, COUPLED WITH SPECIALIZED IMAGING, HAVE BEEN BROUGHT TO BEAR ON THE PROBLEM OF DETERMINING THE CONDITIONS IN WHICH A MACROMOLECULAR TARGET WILL FORM A CRYSTAL THAT IS OF SUFFICIENT QUALITY TO BE AMENABLE TO X-RAY DIFFRACTION STRUCTURE DETERMINATION. THIS PROPOSAL FOCUSES ON CONTINUING AND EXTENDING THE CAPABILITIES OF A CENTRAL RESOURCE PROVIDING CRITICAL HIGH-THROUGHPUT CRYSTALLIZATION SCREENING TO THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY, THE HIGH-THROUGHPUT CRYSTALLIZATION SCREENING CENTER (HTX) AT HAUPTMAN-WOODWARD MEDICAL RESEARCH INSTITUTE. THE HTX CENTER HAS BEEN IN OPERATION FOR TWO DECADES, PROVIDING A UNIQUE NATIONAL CRYSTALLIZATION RESOURCE SPECIFICALLY GEARED TO HELP OVERCOME THE OBSTACLE OF COAXING A MACROMOLECULE TO CRYSTALLIZE. THE HTX CENTER PROVIDES A HIGH-THROUGHPUT SCREENING FORMAT DESIGNED TO MINIMIZE SAMPLE REQUIREMENTS VIA USE OF SMALL VOLUME LIQUID-HANDLING ROBOTICS, A UNIQUE EXPERIMENTAL SET-UP, AND STATE-OF-THE-ART IMAGING FOR SCREENING. NOTABLY, THE TECHNOLOGIES, INSTRUMENTS, AND EXPERTISE AVAILABLE AT THE HTX CENTER ARE NOT WIDELY AVAILABLE. THIS PROPOSAL FOCUSES ON EXTENDING THE CAPABILITIES OF THE HTX CENTER BY DEVELOPING AN EXPANDED REPERTOIRE OF EXPERIMENTAL SCREENING OPTIONS AND IMPROVED IMAGE ANALYSIS AND PROCESSING, WHILE PERFORMING INSTRUMENTATION UPGRADES TO MAINTAIN THE HTX CENTER AS A PREMIER RESOURCE FOR CRYSTALLIZATION SCREENING FOR THE SCIENTIFIC USER COMMUNITY. WE PROPOSE DEVELOPING AND IMPLEMENTING THE NECESSARY COMPUTATIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE AND SOFTWARE TO ACCOMMODATE NEW SCREENING PLATE DEFINITIONS AND OPTIMIZATION OF SUCCESSFUL CRYSTALLIZATION HITS, AND IMPROVED USER INTERFACES TO MAXIMIZE THE INFORMATION ACCESSIBILITY FROM SCREENING EXPERIMENT OUTCOMES. A MAJOR GOAL OF THIS PROPOSAL IS TO INCREASE ACCESS TO THE STATE-OF-THE-ART CRYSTALLIZATION SCREENING INSTRUMENTATION AND EXPERTISE TO RESEARCHERS FROM A WIDE ARRAY OF LABORATORIES IN ACADEMIC, NON-PROFIT AND GOVERNMENT INSTITUTES, WITH AN OBJECTIVE TO ENSURE ACCESS THAT ENABLES A BROAD RANGE OF BIOMEDICALLY IMPORTANT RESEARCH.
