Novel Multi-Omics Aging Clock
­A multi-omics clock analyzes multiple layers of omics data with machine learning to predict remaining lifespan of mammals, particularly for animal model studies. Large omics data sets may be used from combinations of genomics, proteomics, lipids, etc. available from blood or other simple sample collection. This tool can robustly capture changes...

Highly noise-absorbent and odor-adsorbent seat and floor cover fabric systems for aircraft cabin interiors
Background/unmet needActivated carbon fiber (ACF) is a material with high surface area and a nano-porous structure, giving it many unique properties. It has been used for making novel yarn, woven, knit, and non-woven textiles. Although these products exhibit excellent performance in many consumer end-uses such as water/air purification, chemical solvent...

Conversion of recycled cotton into high performance barrier film
A sustainable material with properties suitable for food packaging Background Typical polymer food packaging materials are good barriers to air, but not moisture. In contrast, metallic food packaging materials block air and moisture, but are opaque and do not allow for vision of the packaged food. Cellulose nanofiber films typically fall into the category...
