THIS IS A CONTRACT AWARD FOR VENTUREWELL TO PROVIDE SUPPORT FOR TECHNICAL ASSESSMENTS AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT FOR THE NIBIB RAPID ACCELERATION OF DIAGN

美国国家生物医学成像和生物工程研究所(NIBIB)公开征求建议书，为多个项目提供高达5亿美元的资金，以快速生产创新的SARS-CoV-2诊断测试，帮助公众安全恢复正常活动。快速诊断加速(RADx)是一项利用美国国立卫生研究院(NIH)看护点技术研究网络(POCTRN)的快速通道技术开发计划。RADx将支持新的解决方案，这些解决方案将使美国的SARS-CoV-2检测能力比标准方法高出100倍。RADx旨在最早在2020年夏末向公众提供创新的检测策略，是NIH加快和全面的多管齐下的努力，使每个美国人都能随时获得SARS-CoV-2检测。

The National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) has an open solicitation for proposals to provide up to $500 million across multiple projects to rapidly produce innovative SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic tests that will assist the public’s safe return to normal activities. Rapid Acceleration of Diagnostics (RADx), is a fast-track technology development program that leverages the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Point-of-Care Technology Research Network (POCTRN). RADx will support novel solutions that build the U.S. capacity for SARS-CoV-2 testing up to 100-fold above what is achievable with standard approaches. RADx is structured to deliver innovative testing strategies to the public as soon as late summer 2020 and is an accelerated and comprehensive multi-pronged effort by NIH to make SARS-CoV-2 testing readily available to every American.
