Michael Jewett said: “It was still too expensive, and the yields were not high enough,” “We set a goal to reach $1 per dose and reached that goal here. By increasing yields and lowering costs, we thought we might be able to facilitate greater access to lifesaving medicines”

Rino Rappuoli precisa: “Per lo sviluppo di un vaccino ci vuole almeno 1 miliardo di euro di fondi per farlo arrivare sul mercato – (\*) – e le industrie che fanno ricerca passano alle fasi successive di sviluppo solo dopo che quella precedente ha dato esito positivo”

Jason Matheny said: “A larger part of IARPA’s portfolio in the last year has been devoted to improving our biosecurity, our ability to detect and prevent biological weapons or disease outbreaks,”

Jason Matheny said: “Anticipatory intelligence is part of our national intelligence strategy; it means gaining a lead time on warning against certain kinds of events or conditions that might change in the world,”

Jason Matheny said: “We try to find the problems that aren’t going to be solved by industry or academia without our investment. We stay updated on what industry is already doing so we can identify where we can make advances that industry isn’t pursuing,”
idstch Tuesday, April 20, 2021 6:15:00 PM CEST
Jason Matheny explains: “Today’s supercomputers can’t go up to an exascale without requiring a football field of computers and a power plant large enough to supply a midsize city. With cryogenic computing, you reduce to zero the energy cost of moving bits around because you’re using superconductors rather than semiconductors. However, this requires a whole new kind of chip. Rather than using CMOS, you’re using niobium, a superconductor. And you’re using a different kind of logic and memory, so it requires a different way of programing the computers,”

Jason Matheny said: “In a lot of cases, including law enforcement cases, we don’t obtain a DNA sample that can be used for identification or prosecution,” “DNA degrades in the environment quickly, and it’s very difficult to obtain from things like shell casings or surfaces that have been touched. Proteins are much more plentiful but it’s been a hard technical challenge to use proteins for identification”

Jason Matheny said: “The IARPA mission begins and ends with research itself,” “What the [agencies] then do is really not up to us; it’s up to them to decide how to best tailor the research methods that are developed under our programs to their particular need. Cybersecurity is one where the conditions on the networks and in the organizations are different, the actors are different, but the approaches we try to develop are meant to be generalizable or highly tunable to any particular organization that might need it”

Carlos Castro says: “Researchers have been doing this for a number of years with slower tools with tedious manual steps,” “But now, nanodevices that may have taken us several days to design before now take us just a few minutes”
azonano Tuesday, April 20, 2021 4:57:00 PM CEST
Carlos Castro adds: “As you make these structures more complex, it is difficult to predict exactly what they are going to look like and how they are going to behave,” “It is critical to be able to simulate how our devices will actually operate. Otherwise, we waste a lot of time”
azonano Tuesday, April 20, 2021 4:57:00 PM CEST
Carlos Castro says: “But a more complex device may not only detect that something bad is happening but can also react by releasing a drug or capturing the pathogen,” “We want to be able to design robots that respond in a particular way to a stimulus or move in a certain way”
