Advanced Technologies for Proteomics, Data Integration and Analysis, and Biomanufacturing for Personalized Medicine

The Technology Innovation Program (TIP) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) was established for the purpose of assisting U.S. businesses and institutions of higher education or other organizations, such as national laboratories and nonprofit research institutions, to support, promote, and accelerate innovation in the United States through high-risk, high-reward research in areas of critical national need. Areas of critical national need are those areas that justify government attention because the magnitude of the problem is large and societal challenges that can be overcome with technology are not being sufficiently addressed.
