Collectively, the team has extensive experience in various software
methodologies, information flow modeling, artificial intelligence,
large-scale software design and implementation, novel sensing
and process analytical technologies, and fielding industrial applications.
One would be hard pressed to assemble such an outstanding team
of academic researchers and industrial partners with extensive,
demonstrated, experience on basic and applied research, commercialization
of R&D, along with excellent infrastructure support for cGMP
work, high-performance computing, and technology transfer anywhere
else in the U.S.
