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.
