(Technology Bundle) Stem cells with transiently reduced p53 to treat diabetes associated kidney disease and peripheral vascular disease

018-044-sen-019-54-sen – Local delivery of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) may treat diabetic-related kidney disease (DKD) and peripheral vascular disease (PVD). EPCs may be obtained from a patient’s peripheral blood. The hyperglycemic state in diabetic patients causes transplanted EPCs to undergo apoptosis, creating a challenge for such therapies. By transiently silencing the apoptotic gene p53, Dr. Sen’s... Read More

PASSIVE RAM-AIR INERTIAL STABILISATION MECHANISM

020-001-waldron – Students at the George Washington University are developing a passive stabilization mechanism for atmospheric rocket flight which extracts work from oncoming air to generate a restoring force. Airflow channeled through a turbine section spins a shaft, which exerts a torque proportional to its speed and perpendicular to the rocket’s trajectory. This additional stability allows for a...

NEXT GENERATION OF GOLF BALL DESIGN

018-023-balaras – Researchers at the George Washington University and Arizona State University have been developing a family of novel golf ball designs that can reduce drag by as much as 15% compared to traditional designs based on dimples. The new designs will allow for improved aerodynamics performance which can be used to increase the distance the ball travels or to improve the feel of the ball. Dimples... Read More

PMU-Embedded Analytics for Online Event Detection and Classification in Power Grids

019-027-deghanian – Researchers at The George Washington University are developing innovative analytics for power grid online surveillance (event detection and classification with minimum latency) and real-time situational awareness. The novel analytics can be deployed as a stand-alone next-generation smart sensor or can be embedded within the existing phasor measurement units (PMUs) and intelligent... Read More

COTSKNIGHT: Practical Defense against Cache Timing Channel Attacks using Cache Monitoring and Partitioning Techniques

019-034-venkataramani – Researchers at GW are developing COTSKnight, a novel framework that offers a holistic infrastructure for both detecting and defending against cache-based timing channels. Cache timing channels endangered shared computer system by stealing information without leaving physical traces in shared cache. COTSKnight repurposes the performance monitoring tool and detect various protocols of cache... Read More
