Charge: • Your task is to develop core ideas/projects for an $8-10M ($1.25-1.5M per year for 5 years) NIH Center proposal. • Specifically, you should consider the following questions
Shifting Health Care to your home • Why? Much, much less expensive. • Predictive medicine instead reactive medicine • Nebraska Center for Mobility and Function • What can we do to keep people mobile and independent • Clinical care, research, teaching and medical training • Public outreach and “buy in” • Real-time 24/7 data collection • Location (outdoor GPS, indoor room locators) for lifespace • Mobility and Activity Levels (accelerometer data) • Appealing to allocate rural health resources • Information integrity and network Security • Cyber-Physical Systems for realtime monitoring • Expert System for automating diagnostics • Automate the process of diagnosis and data analysis • Body Area Sensor Networks; wearable, washable
Identify the key faculty from from both campuses to involve in these projects. Include their strengths. (UNMC on next slide) • UNL FacultyStrengths • JitenderDeogun Wireless networks • DongmingPengRealtime analysis • Jung Yul Lim Network theory • Michael Hempel Database • Tad Wysocki Computational engineering • BeataWysocki Cyber security • Joseph Siu • Hamid Sharif
Identify the key faculty from from both campuses to involve in these projects. Include their strengths. • UNMC Faculty Strengths • Stephen Bonasera Clinical Medicine • Joseph Siu Biomechanics Translational studies
Identify external academic partners & expertise or equipment resources/strengths that are needed to accomplish these projects. • Expertise in • Clinical nursing and social services expertise • Clinical Trial Coordinator • Sensor device design and development • Geographic analysis • Film/video production • Equipment • Computing infrastructure, Data storage • Purpose-built device fabrication and prototyping for medical devices • Long-distance teleconferencing with rural areas
List potential industry/foundation partners (think broadly) and what they would contribute. Include reasons why they would be interested. • Alzheimer’s association • Whitehead Foundation • American Federation for Aging Research • NIH • Veteran’s Administration • Unemed for commercialization • Crossbow or others for wireless sensor manufacturers • Insurance companies ?
Describe how you would link the Center to other campus resources. • Utilize supercomputers at UNL/CMS (PrairieFire, Holland Computing Center) • UNO’s WINDS Lab for wireless sensor networks • UNO Virtualization laboratory • UNL’s Advanced Telecommunications Engineering Lab • UNL’s Cyber-Physical Systems Lab • UNMC Home Instead Center for Successful Aging • UNMC Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases • UNMC Department of Epidemiology
