SVision LLC Awarded Phase I SBIR Grant from NIH
Research Grant Will Extend Flexible Recognition and Quantitative Analysis Capabilities to Support Neuroscience Research
SVision LLC, an image informatics company developing flexible microscopy image recognition and quantitative analysis software for life science applications, has received a Phase I Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Grant from National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) of the National Institute of Health (NIH).
The six month award for $100,000 will further support the Company’s program to develop and commercialize next generation live cell, time-lapse microscopy image recognition and quantitative analysis software, SVCell™, for accurate quantification of subcellular functions such as the analysis of synaptic transmission in spines and synapses. The software will integrate novel and robust methods of subcellular time-lapse analysis and modeling not available in the current informatics tools for the enhancement of signal detection and noise immunity to significantly improve on assay throughput, accuracy, efficiency, and reliability.
The NIH SBIR program is a peer-reviewed grant program that provides research support to small businesses to discover and develop innovative technologies and methodologies that have the potential for commercialization and public benefit.
