9703938 Allen This award provides funding to enhance technology transfer operations between university laboratories and the private sector in Vermont. The Vermont Technology Council has established four Centers of Excellence as part of the state Science and Technology Plan and funding is provided to help bring three exemplary research projects from three of these Centers to fruition and commercialization. The three projects are 1) utilization of whey-based edible film technology, 2) development of a reagent kit and instrumentation for rapid determination of platelet activation thresholds (of use for various clinical cardiovascular applications), and 3) development of a thin film blister testing system for microelectronics manufacturing. Salary support is provided for a technology transfer assistant to Dr. Paul Huyffer, Executive Director of the Vermont Technology Council and recently appointed University of Vermont Special Assistant for Economic Development. Emphasis on facilitating technology transfer is expected to strengthen partnerships between university researchers and industry and contribute to economic growth and development for Vermont.

9703938 Allen该奖项提供资金，以加强佛蒙特州大学实验室和私营部门之间的技术转移操作。佛蒙特州技术委员会已经建立了四个卓越中心，作为国家科学技术计划的一部分，并提供资金帮助其中三个中心的三个示范研究项目实现成果和商业化。这三个项目是：1)利用以乳清为基础的可食用薄膜技术，2)开发用于快速测定血小板激活阈值的试剂盒和仪器（用于各种临床心血管应用），以及3)开发用于微电子制造的薄膜起泡测试系统。为佛蒙特州技术委员会执行主任Paul Huyffer博士的技术转让助理提供薪金支助，他最近被任命为佛蒙特州大学经济发展特别助理。重点是促进技术转让，加强大学研究人员和工业界之间的伙伴关系，促进佛蒙特州的经济增长和发展。
