Innovating Inside the Box: Adapting a Platform Drug Delivery Device
We’re always told to “think outside the box.” But when it comes to drug delivery devices, sometimes the real challenge is innovating inside the box.
A Revolutionary Rehabilitation Technology for Acquired Brain Injury
Our Activity Assistant™ technology could help people recovering from ABI with a new approach to assessing, monitoring and treating impairment.
Honoring a Legacy on Veterans Day
Veterans Day is the special time each year that we honor the service people who put everything on the line to preserve our freedom.
Come Fly Away on Our Beautiful (Stratospheric) Balloon
A 79-foot tall stratospheric balloon carrying a 36-pound payload was launched and rose more than 121,000 feet into the stratosphere to test a novel satellite antenna design in near-space conditions.
NeuroLife® Sleeve Holds Promise of Improved Sports Performance
Learn how the continued development of neurotechnology by Battelle has lead to new research on how the Battelle NeuroLife Sleeve can be used to enhance sports performance.
Listening to the Environment with Distributed Acoustic Sensing
What can you learn about the environment by listening? Our ears are limited, but a method called distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) lets us detect ground vibrations not perceivable by human senses.
Battelle Responding to and Preventing Pandemics
The COVID-19 pandemic made us acutely aware of how devastating a biologically driven event (in this case a virus) can be. We have seen how important it is to have the right tools in place.
What Can Biosecurity Learn from Cybersecurity?
We’ve all learned that any computer connected to the internet - wireless or not - can be hacked. The same is true of the scientific equipment you rely on to build DNA sequences for your customers.
Why Implement Biosecurity Screening When You Can't Catch Everything?
Screening customers and sequences is important. The final goal is to work smart, together, to create the best screening systems possible.
Who are the Organizations Behind Biosecurity Control Lists?
Robust and effective screening programs are essential to efforts to thwart bad actors in the synthetic biology arena. Screening programs cannot function effectively without control lists.
What Makes Biosecurity Sequence Screening Difficult?
Implementing and maintaining an effective screening program is more difficult than it seems. Running customer and sequence information through the screening process is just the first step.
Battelle Publishes Open Source Binary Visualization Tool
Battelle Cyber Team publishes open source CantorDust plugin for Ghidra to provide binary visualization capabilities to the platform.
What is Needed to Implement a Biosecurity Sequence Screening Program?
An effective biosecurity sequence screening program requires specific components, expertise, and training.
How Does DNA Sequence Screening Need to Evolve?
DNA sequence screening needs to evolve into a system that can handle shorter sequences and provide more contextual information for both known and novel sequences of concern.
Why are Items Flagged in an Effective Biosecurity Sequence Screening Program?
Effective biosecurity sequence screening programs screen both customers and orders.
How Do We Know a Sequence Screening Program Is Effective?
Is your screening system that good or are you just that lucky? Is your system flagging the sequences it needs to, or are some sequences slipping by undetected?
4 Retirees Reflect on Their Time at Battelle
To celebrate Battelle’s 90th anniversary, we took the opportunity to speak to four retirees about their time at Battelle and their favorite accomplishments from their decades of work.
Why Screen Sequences 200 bp at a Time?
Sequence screening is an essential component of any biosecurity screening program. Two-hundred base pairs (bp) is the point where accuracy and cost are currently optimized.
What are Biosecurity Sequence Reference Databases?
Biosecurity sequence reference databases are essential and contain all published nucleic acid or protein sequences, whether or not they are potentially harmful.
What are the Components of an Effective Biosecurity Customer Screening Protocol?
Customer screening, flagging, and follow-up play essential roles in establishing the legitimacy of customers ordering synthetic dsDNA sequences. It’s not enough to merely flag a potential bad actor.
