INTEGRITY SUBSTANCE ABUSE AND HIV PREVENTION NAVIGATOR PROGRAM - SUMMARY INTEGRITY INC., ALSO RECOGNIZED AS INTEGRITY HOUSE OR INTEGRITY, PROPOSES TO BUILD UPON THE WORK OF OUR PREVENTION AND EDUCATION DEPARTMENT TO PROVIDE COMPREHENSIVE INDIVIDUAL AND COMMUNITY BASED EDUCATION AND AWARENESS ON THE RISKS OF HIV ASSOCIATED WITH SUBSTANCE MISUSE. INTEGRITY WILL ENGAGE WITH MULTIPLE PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS WHO PROVIDE HIV TREATMENT SERVICES IN ESSEX COUNTY TO; IMPLEMENT TARGETED RISK REDUCTION EDUCATION TO OUR TARGET AUDIENCE, EDUCATE HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS ON THE IMPORTANCE OF CO-INTERVENTION SERVICES FOR HIV AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER, PROVIDE HIV TESTING, AND DEVELOP AWARENESS CAMPAIGNS OF THE RISKS OF HIV ASSOCIATED WITH SUBSTANCE MISUSE. DESCRIPTION OF TARGET POPULATION INTEGRITY PROPOSES TO SERVE YOUNG PEOPLE, AGE 13 TO 24, WITH A FOCUS ON MINORITY YOUTH MOST AT RISK FOR SUBSTANCE MISUSE AND HIV. OUR PROPOSED PROGRAM WILL TAKE PLACE THROUGHOUT ESSEX COUNTY WITH A CONCENTRATION ON THE GREATER NEWARK AREA. WITH A GOAL TO MAKE SUBSTANCE MISUSE AND HIV PREVENTION SERVICES INCREASINGLY ACCESSIBLE TO THOSE IN NEED, INTEGRITY WILL ALSO UTILIZE SAMHSA RESOURCES TO SERVE INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE PARTICULARLY VULNERABLE, WHICH INCLUDES PREGNANT PEOPLE WITH SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER AND INDIVIDUALS WHO IDENTIFY AS LGBTQ. SUMMARY OF SERVICES INTEGRITY WILL PROVIDE SERVICES IN THREE MAIN CATEGORIES: COMPREHENSIVE HIV AND SUBSTANCE MISUSE EDUCATION USING THE CLEAR PROGRAM MODEL, INTEGRITY WILL PROVIDE INDIVIDUALS AT GREATEST RISK OF HIV AND SUBSTANCE MISUSE WITH ONE-ON-ONE EDUCATION OVER 4-6 SESSIONS TO INCREASE KNOWLEDGE OF THE ASSOCIATED RISKS FOR HIV IN SUBSTANCE USE, POSITIVE BEHAVIOR CHANGE TO ELIMINATE OR LIMIT THE RISK OF HIV TRANSMISSION, IMPROVED SOCIAL EMOTIONAL AWARENESS AND COPING SKILLS, AND DEVELOPMENT OF PROSOCIAL SHORT- AND LONG-TERM GOALS. GROUP EDUCATION SESSIONS WILL ALSO BE IMPLEMENTED USING THE HHRP CURRICULA WHICH PROMOTES ABSTINENCE FROM ILLICIT DRUG USE, REDUCED DRUG USE, REDUCED RISK FOR HIV TRANSMISSION, AND IMPROVED MEDICAL, PSYCHOLOGICAL, AND SOCIAL FUNCTIONING. FINALLY, INTEGRITY’S PREVENTION DEPARTMENT WILL WORK CLOSELY WITH OUR HIV CARE PROVIDER PARTNERS TO DEVELOP TRAINING AND EDUCATION MATERIALS TO BE IMPLEMENTED WITH OTHER SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER TREATMENT PROVIDERS ON THE IMPORTANCE OF SCREENING FOR HIV AND ASSURING THAT CLINICAL CARE NEEDS ARE MET IF AN INDIVIDUAL IS DETERMINED TO BE INFECTED WITH HIV. HIV TESTING AND REFERRALS FOR SERVICE THROUGH OUR PREVENTION DEPARTMENT, INTEGRITY OFFERS HIV PREVENTION EDUCATION AS WELL AS HIV SCREENING AND TESTING IN PARTNERSHIP WITH NEWARK BETH ISRAEL MEDICAL CENTER, RWJBARNABAS HEALTH. ADDITIONALLY, INTEGRITY WILL OFFER A CONTINUUM OF SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER TREATMENT OPTIONS THAT WILL BE AVAILABLE TO INDIVIDUALS SEEN THROUGH THIS PROPOSED PROJECT WITH A NEED FOR TREATMENT. INDIVIDUALS IN NEED OF HIV CARE WILL BE REFERRED TO AN APPROPRIATE PARTNER. COMMUNITY AWARENESS CAMPAIGNS INTEGRITY’S MARKETING AND EXTERNAL AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT WILL COLLABORATE WITH DIFFERENT PARTNERS TO TAILOR OUR MESSAGING AND DEVELOP CAMPAIGNS AND OUTREACH MATERIALS ON THE IMPORTANCE OF SEEKING TREATMENT AND RISKS OF HIV TRANSMISSION VIA CERTAIN DRUG BEHAVIORS. ONCE MESSAGING HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED, INTEGRITY WILL BE ABLE TO DISSEMINATE MATERIALS AT DIFFERENT COMMUNITY EVENTS WE FREQUENT AND CAN ESTABLISH CONCENTRATED OUTREACH AND AWARENESS CAMPAIGNS. LOCAL HEALTH AGENCY COORDINATION INTEGRITY WILL COLLABORATE WITH THE CITY OF NEWARK DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND COMMUNITY WELLNESS TO SERVE AS A REFERRAL SOURCE TO TARGET POPULATIONS.

SBIR PHASE I: LONG-TERM RAILCAR-MOUNTED WHEEL BEARING MONITORS -THE BROADER/COMMERCIAL IMPACT OF THIS SBIR PHASE I PROJECT IS IN IMPROVING THE EFFICIENCY AND SAFETY OF RAILROADS BY ACCELERATING THE COMMERCIALIZATION OF LONG-TERM RAILCAR-MOUNTED WHEEL BEARING MONITORS. THESE DEVICES CAN PROVIDE LIVE TEMPERATURE MONITORING OF RAILCAR WHEEL BEARINGS IN TRANSIT, ENABLING RAILROADS TO PROACTIVELY PREVENT DERAILMENTS CAUSED BY OVERHEATING OF BEARINGS. THIS TECHNOLOGY COULD DRAMATICALLY REDUCE THE ECONOMIC IMPACT OF DAMAGED EQUIPMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE: THE 2023 DERAILMENT IN EAST PALESTINE, OHIO WHICH INSPIRED THIS INNOVATION RESULTED IN OVER $2 BILLION IN DAMAGES. FURTHERMORE, THESE DEVICES CAN BE DEPLOYED AT A COST OF AT LEAST TWO ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE LOWER THAN THE COST OF EXISTING TRACK-BASED DEFECT DETECTORS, PROVIDING RAILROADS WITH A FAR BETTER SOLUTION AT A LOWER COST. THE POTENTIAL BENEFITS OF THIS TECHNOLOGY EXTEND BEYOND RAILROAD FINANCES: MANY TRAINS CARRY HAZARDOUS MATERIALS, AND DERAILMENTS RUN THE RISK OF SPILLING CARCINOGENS AND OTHER TOXIC SUBSTANCES, DAMAGING ECOSYSTEMS AND HARMING NEARBY COMMUNITIES. THIS INNOVATION CAN DRASTICALLY LOWER THE RISK OF THESE CATASTROPHES. THE INTELLECTUAL MERIT OF THIS PROJECT STEMS FROM ITS GOAL OF ASCERTAINING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF WHEEL BEARING MONITORS DEPLOYED ON RAILCARS LONG-TERM. THE PRIMARY INNOVATION INHERENT IN THIS PROJECT IS THE MONITORING DEVICE, WHICH WILL BE DESIGNED TO WITHSTAND THE HARSH ENVIRONMENT OF RAILROAD USE, UPDATE SENSOR READINGS OVER A CELLULAR CONNECTION, AND RECHARGE IN TRANSIT VIA A NOVEL AXIAL FLUX GENERATOR HARVESTING ENERGY FROM THE ROTATION OF THE RAILCAR?S AXLE. THE RESEARCH OBJECTIVES REVOLVE AROUND QUANTIFYING SENSOR DURABILITY ON A RAILCAR TRUCK, AXIAL FLUX GENERATOR FEASIBILITY IN RAILROAD IOT DEVICES, WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORK RELIABILITY IN A RAILROAD ENVIRONMENT, AND DIGITAL TEMPERATURE SENSOR ACCURACY AND RESPONSE TIME ON A RAILCAR WHEEL BEARING. IT IS ANTICIPATED THAT THE TECHNICAL RESULTS OF THIS RESEARCH WILL CONCLUSIVELY DEMONSTRATE THAT WHEEL BEARING MONITORS OF THIS TYPE ARE SUITABLE FOR LONG-TERM DEPLOYMENT IN A RAILROAD ENVIRONMENT. 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.

WHEAT IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT FOOD CROPS IN THE WORLD, BUT ITS PRODUCTION DEPENDS HEAVILY ON NITROGEN FERTILIZER. FARMERSOFTEN APPLY LARGE AMOUNTS OF NITROGEN TO INCREASE YIELDS, YET MORE THAN HALF OF THIS FERTILIZER IS LOST TO THE ENVIRONMENT, LEADING TOHIGH COSTS, WATER POLLUTION, AND GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS. THIS PROJECT AIMS TO ADDRESS THESE CHALLENGES BY DEVELOPING NEWWHEAT VARIETIES THAT USE NITROGEN MORE EFFICIENTLY. USING ADVANCED GENE EDITING AND GENETIC ENGINEERING TOOLS, WE WILL CREATEIMPROVED LINES OF PURDUE'S ELITE WHEAT VARIETY, AG0762, THAT CAN TAKE UP NITROGEN FROM THE SOIL MORE EFFECTIVELY AND MAINTAINGREENER, HEALTHIER LEAVES LONGER DURING GROWTH. OUR APPROACH USES A PATENTED IN-PLANTA TRANSFORMATION METHOD THAT AVOIDS MANYOF THE DIFFICULTIES OF TRADITIONAL PLANT BREEDING AND ALLOWS FASTER DEVELOPMENT OF IMPROVED CROPS. IN THIS INITIAL 9-MONTH PROJECT, WEWILL DESIGN GENETIC TOOLS, INTRODUCE THEM INTO WHEAT PLANTS, AND IDENTIFY THE FIRST GENERATION OF PLANTS WITH POTENTIAL IMPROVEMENTSIN NITROGEN USE EFFICIENCY. THE EXPECTED OUTCOME IS A FOUNDATION FOR CREATING COMMERCIALLY VIABLE WHEAT VARIETIES THAT REQUIRELESS FERTILIZER, LOWER COSTS FOR FARMERS, AND REDUCE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS WHILE ENSURING STABLE YIELDS. ULTIMATELY, THIS WORKSUPPORTS SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE AND STRENGTHENS U.S. LEADERSHIP IN CROP INNOVATION.
