Employer: Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education - Department of Defense Expires: 11/06/2024 Reference CodeERDC-ITL-2024-0002DescriptionThe US Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) strives to be the world’s premier public engineering and environmental sciences research and development organization. Research and development are categorized into five major areas, which are Military Engineering, Installations and Operational Environments, Civil Works, Geospatial Research and Engineering, and Engineered Resilient Systems.The ERDC Information Technology Laboratory (ITL), located in Vicksburg, MS is a premier DoD laboratory engaged in the creation and application of advanced information technology in support of the Warfighter and the Nation. ITL conducts research and development in informatics and computational science and engineering with particular emphasis on high-performance computing, computer-aided and interdisciplinary engineering, computer science, and instrumentation systems. Edge computing can minimize the cost of moving big data, minimize latency in the dissemination of results, and alleviate sensitivity to available network bandwidth, by processing at the edge and transmitting relevant information back to the cloud or HPC machines. In fact, the DoD has engaged in computing transformation to increase on-board data analytics, reduce communication latency and cost, and develop energy-efficient computing and architectures as well as infrastructures for data collection and processing, especially multi-spatial, multi-signal data, and multi-dissemination capability fusion. The ERDC ITL has ongoing research efforts to (1) provide a high-performance computing ecosystem for next-generation multi-domain operations, (2) mature innovative hybrid sensor-edge-cloud HPC ecosystem and associated software and AI/ML technologies to support emerging connected battlefield scenarios at the edge, (3) demonstrate navigation solutions using visual terrain for multi-domain operations, and (4) continuous training and deployment of AI models.What will I be doing?Under the guidance of a mentor, you will engage in research by assessing existing tools available and collaborating with others in the development of an end-to-end pipeline for multi-video sensor devices to edge HPC streaming data analytics, additionally including model development (i.e., model training) using the data-driven approach, model conversion for edge devices, model verification and validation at the edge, model integration with the pipeline, and continuous learning. The goal is to raise situational awareness as soon as possible when the anomaly process is detected on one or more of the sensor devices. You will collaborate with the research team by providing an understanding of the unique streaming challenges such as data privacy, data heterogeneity, transmission bandwidth limitation, autocorrelation, and different sampling intervals.The project will allow ERDC ITL to have increased abilities in the fields of video analytics, real-time detection and dissemination, adaptive decisions, sensor fusion, and even continuous learning on edge HPC and edge devices. You will benefit from exposure to a multi-disciplinary team and the opportunity to learn about applied research within the agency. You will have the opportunity to co-author reports and presentations through this project.Where will I be located?  Location VariesWhat is the anticipated start date?

Employer: Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education - Department of Defense Expires: 11/01/2024 Reference CodeUSAISR-2024-0005DescriptionThe U.S. Army Institute of Surgical Research is offering an internship in College Station, Texas.What will I be doing?As an Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education (ORISE) participant, you will join a community of scientists and researchers in an effort to improve outcomes for wounded Warfighters in support of return to duty and maximizing force readiness. In pursuit of this purpose, our long-term goal is the identification and testing of therapeutic agents that modulate critical stress physiology, enabling superior patient outcomes in resource austere conditions. The objective of this proposal, which is a key step in reaching our long-term goal, is to expand our understanding of mitochondrial function in health and disease in canines, using platelet mitochondria as a focal point.Despite decades of research, the cellular pathophysiology of shock remains incompletely understood. However, it is clear that the mitochondria – the energy-producing organelles that supply cells with the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) that is critical to life – are central players in the integrated cellular response to critical stress. Crucially, mitochondria depend on the presence of oxygen to carry out their core function of ATP synthesis as well as to maintain their own internal physiology. By depriving mitochondria of oxygen, hemorrhagic shock simultaneously decreases cellular energy production and injures mitochondria. Given the importance of mitochondria to cellular survival, the study of mitochondrial function during hemorrhage could yield critical insights into the pathophysiology of shock in canines and humans.Expected Outcomes:Specific Aim 1 – Establish the range of normal platelet mitochondrial respiration in otherwise healthy dogs. Using peripheral blood samples procured from dogs undergoing routine health visits, we will establish the normal range of platelet mitochondrial respiratory parameters. Our working hypothesis is that the normal range will be constant across animals which is a necessary precondition for the use of platelet mitochondria as a diagnostic tool for shock.Specific Aim 2 – Establish the range of platelet mitochondrial respiratory parameters in critically ill canines. Using samples procured from critically ill canine patients, we will determine the range of platelet mitochondrial respiratory parameters. Our working hypothesis is that mitochondrial respiratory parameters from platelets taken from critically ill dogs will be significantly different from those taken from healthy dogs.Why should I apply?Under the guidance of a mentor, you will gain hands-on experience to complement your education and support your academic and professional goals.
