Seeding Innovative Ideas and Partnering with the Ecosystem

Jenn Gustetic will talk about how NASA selects ideas and collaborates with the ecosystem to develop new technologies for NASA’s portfolio. She will explain how the organization encourages collaboration, co-invests to develop ideas from lab to market, and acts as the hub-and-spoke of the ecosystem. Jenn will also discuss NASA’s journey to break silos and work horizontally across programs. • Gathering and evaluating ideas internally and externally with diverse players – engaging communities, being the hub-and-spoke of the ecosystem, and encouraging collaboration through co-investments • Identify the best ideas, funding ideas from maturation to hand-off with fluctuating budgets, and managing IP and tech transfer • Balancing investments in projects that address NASA’s needs with higher risk ideas that may not have an obvious application • Transitioning ideas to the next phase – training people and teams and ensuring ownership • Developing a 3.0 innovation capacity strategy – disrupting silos, enabling the ecosystem to work seamlessly together, and taking people and leaders along

National Campaign Partner Demonstration Team Annual Review April 2023

- NASA developed the Advanced Air Mobility Project (AAM) and the National Campaign (NC) series to identify and address challenges ahead for advanced air mobility concepts. - NC seeks to challenge industry as follows; - Execute progressively more difficult ecosystem-wide system-level safety and integration scenarios - Demonstrate practical and scalable system concepts - Build a knowledge base for development of requirements and standards - There are currently three focus areas within the NASA AAM NC Portfolio - Vehicle Development and Operations: test and inform capabilities that are critical enablers for AAM such as electric aircraft propulsion and increasing levels of automation - Airspace Design and Operations: develop and validate an operational concept to integrate and manage AAM traffic safely and efficiently - Community Integration: understand and address critical barriers to community integration, such as public acceptance (noise, security, privacy, etc.), supporting infrastructure, and local regulation

Clinical Trials at NASA: What Makes A Clinical Trial & What Are the Requirements for International Partners?

ClinicalTrials.gov is a public registry designed to fulfill ethical obligations by providing information about clinical research studies to the general public, patients, medical practitioners and the research community. In the United States, recent revisions to human subject’s regulations have prompted new criteria for what constitutes a clinical trial along with requirements not typically requested for other types of human subject’s research. Identification of investigational clinical trials is the shared responsibility of NASA, the IRB, and the scientific investigators designing and conducting the research. This talk aims to educate attendees on the history of the development of Clinicaltrials.gov, discussion of why these requirements are important to both participants and researchers, and information on how to identify clinical trials research. In addition, we will provide information on the different requirements for clinical trials conducted at NASA or aboard the International Space Station.

Integrated Biorefinery Research Facility: Partnering with Industry to Advance the Bioeconomy

NREL's National Bioenergy Center has entered into more than 130 collaborations in recent years with companies ranging in size from start-ups to those that appear on Fortune magazine's Fortune 100 list. The Integrated Biorefinery Research Facility (IBRF) showcases NREL's commitment to collaboration and to meeting the nation's biofuels and bioproducts development and deployment goals. Designed to speed the growth of the biofuels and bioproducts industries, the IBRF is a unique $33.5-million pilot facility capable of supporting a variety of projects.

A New Era for Solar and Storage: Partnering for Continued Success

Solar energy has grown faster than experts projected. Energy storage technologies are poised to repeat that success, enabling a partnership to keep the lights on even after the sun sets. As current impacts and growing threats of climate change become more visible and the world accelerates efforts to adopt new clean-energy technology, electricity generation from solar and wind is playing an increasing role in the energy system. However, it can be confusing - we hear that solar has great potential, but we also hear that solar and wind are too small to make a meaningful difference, providing just 3% and 6% of the world's electricity in 2020, respectively (1). What is the reality and what can we expect in the coming years? This article focuses on solar, but wind has an equally impressive and interesting story. This article reviews how prices for solar have dropped dramatically and deployment has increased correspondingly to the point where solar is almost half of the new electricity generating capacity being installed globally today. It shows how solar-generated electricity has grown to the point where we need to pair it with storage or other strategies for balancing electricity supply and demand. The article also explores how lithium-ion batteries are replicating solar technology's big success and discusses new storage technologies that are being developed.

Preparing Underrepresented Minorities for STEM Careers in Energy

The purpose of the grant was to increase the participation of underrepresented minorities and women in STEM disciplines that are critical for the energy industry. The grant was implemented by the Fort Valley State University’s (FVSU) Cooperative Developmental Energy Program (CDEP). FVSU-CDEP enrolled two cohorts of six academically talented freshmen students into its accelerated five-year 3+2 dual degree STEM program. In the 3+2 dual degree format, students enroll at FVSU for three years and earn bachelor’s degrees in biology, chemistry, or mathematics and transfer to a partnering university for two years to earn second bachelor’s degrees in engineering, geology/geophysics, or health physics. FVSU-CDEP partnering universities consist of Georgia Tech, Grand Valley State University, Penn State University, University of Alabama, University of Arkansas, University of Nevada-Las Vegas, and the University of Texas-Austin. Cohort I enrolled at FVSU fall semester of 2017 and cohort II enrolled fall semester of 2020. All six of the students in cohort I earned bachelor’s STEM degrees at FVSU and transferred to a partnering university. Five of the six who transferred to a partnering university earned the second bachelor’s degree. One student transferred from a partnering university to a non-partner university to continue pursuit of the second degree. All students in cohort I had internships, attended professional meetings, and made presentations. Cohort II enrolled the fall-semester of 2020 in the midst of COVID epidemic. Cohort II was only funded for one year, 2020/2021. The DOE Office of Economic Impact and Diversity informed the PI that there would not be any funding for the fifth and final year (2021/2022) of the project. All six of the students in cohort II earned bachelor’s STEM degrees from FVSU and transferred to one of CDEP’s partnering universities. One of the students in cohort II graduate with an MS degree spring of 2023. Currently, four are pursuing graduate degrees at partnering universities and one withdrew from a partnering school because health reasons. Students in cohort II opportunities to participate in internship were negatively impact by the COVID epidemic (2020-2022). Of the 12 scholarship participants, 8 were females. Fifty percent of the males pursued second degrees in Engineering while only twenty-five percent of the females chose Engineering as their second degree.
