USF Research & Innovation and the Florida High Tech Corridor are partnering to provide $100,000 to support the advancement of technologies developed by USF researchers. This round of seed funding will support four projects from across the University:
- Off-the-shelf repair system for failing and corroded bridges to reduce repair time and costs for critical infrastructure
- Novel protein-based therapy to treat a leading genetic cause of inherited intellectual disability
- Optimized vaccine for C. Difficile, a life-threatening bacterial pathogen and urgent antibiotic resistant threat
- RNA-based strategy that enhances the body’s natural defense mechanisms to fight infections caused by viruses, bacteria, and fungi
