I. INTRODUCTION

I. INTRODUCTION

A. General

The aeronautical and space activities conducted by the National

Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) are creating an impressive

body of knowledge of great potential scientific and technological usefulness.

In carrying out its congressional mandate to disseminate this information

for ultimate benefit of the general public, NASA has engaged in an extensive

publications program; in particular, publications under the auspices of

NASA's Technology Utilization Division (TUD) are specifically aimed at

expeditiously transferring NASA developments to the scientific and

industrial community°

Special difficulties are encountered when it is attempted to transfer

NASA-derived technology, by means of TUD publications alone, to scientists

in the biomedical fields. These scientists are particularly overburdened

by the copious amounts of published biomedical material; additionally, they

are by and large unfamiliar with the language and symbology of the

physical and engineering sciences° As a result, technology in physical

science and engineering has often not been as effectively transferred to

biomedical applications as it deserves to be.

The TUD's investigations of the chain of events leading to the

introduction of new products, technological inventions, and methods into

medical practice have suggested that the biomedical research teams at

medical schools and similar biomedical research institutions play a key role

in this process. New discoveries, introduced by these groups, tend to

proceed naturally through stages of professional approval, manufacturing

interest and participation, on to the level of the practicing physicians,

bringing direct health benefits to the public° It would seem an attractive

goal to introduce NASA-derived advances at the level of the biomedical

research team, and thus to utilize the existing channels to the medical

practitioner and his patients for effective technological transfer.

As a result of these investigations, NASA's TUD has developed a

general methodology for the solution of this important and special technological

transfer problem. Prominently included in this methodology was the estab-

lishment of several strategically placed Biomedical Application Teams

consisting of appropriately cross-trained and broadly experienced physical

and biological scientists. It is the task of the Biomedical Application Team

to facilitate and improve the productive interaction between NASA centers

and biomedical research teams. Emphasis is on interpersonal contact, in

which the cross-trained members of the Biomedical Applications Team form

an active link between these two groups of scientists. A flexible system is

maturing in which both principal groups, NASA personnel and biomedicalresearchers, freely and effectively participate in mutually beneficialexchange of skills and knowledge.

COMMUNICATIONS WITH NASA CENTERS

March 27, 1968--Mr. Berger contact Dr. R. Nathan by telephone to

to verify the status of processing of X-ray films previously submitted.

Dr. Nathan stated that the films had been scanned and digitized and

attempts had been made to obtain enhanced visualization of gall stones. The

results of these attempts were considered by jPL personnel to be poor;

nevertheless, these results will be provided for Dr. Zanca's evaluation.

Dr. Nathan stated that he hopes to obtain funding with which to continue the

biomedical applications of $PL enhancement techniques in June 1968, and

that he would, at that time, welcome submission of additional films.

IV. SUMMARY OF PROJECT ACTIVITIES

26

The work performed during this period in connection with previously

submitted problems and the specification of two newly submitted problems

is reported in Section III of this report. Site visits by members of the

Application Team, performed in connection with submitted problems, were

as follows:

1 November 1967: Mr. Re J. Crosby, and Mr. F. St. Claire--

Texas institute for Rehabilitation and Research;

7,8 December 1967: L. Berger--Texas Institute for Rehabilitation

and Research and the University of Texas Medical Branch at

Galveston;

15, 16 December 1967: Dro Quentin Hartwig, Dr. Ray W. Ware,

and Louis Berger--Texas Institute for Rehabilitation and

Research (meeting with Dro W. Spencer, Director) and

Baylor University College of Medicine (Michael DeBakey, M.D. );

15 February 1968: Dr. Ray W. Ware, Mr. A. G. Buck, and

g. So Berger--Texas Institute for Rehabilitation and Research;

Z8 February 1968: L. So Berger--Texas Institute for

Rehabilitation and Research;

29 February 1968: L. S. Berger--The University of Texas

Medical Branch at Galveston; and

14 March 1968: L. S. Berger--Texas Institute for

Rehabilitation and Research.

In addition to conducting business directly related to submitted

problems, the above trips routinely included discussion about improved

procedures, new approaches, and the generation of new problem state-

ment submission, as well as in most instances including briefings of staff

members at the participating institutions who had not yet been made

thoroughly familiar with the program.

Trips were also taken in connection with briefing of key researchers

and administrators at institutions which are being added to the program.

Upon the acquisition of the services of our special consultant for the

West Coast region, Mr. A. G. Buck, the following trips were taken:

I-4 March 1968: Dr. Ray W. Ware and Mr. A. G. Buckvisited the Palo Alto Medical Research Foundation, theRancho Los Amigos Hospital, and Ames Research Center;

27-29 March 1968: Mro L. S. Berger and Mr. A. G. Buckvisited the following institutions--Rancho Los Amigos Hospital,University of Washington, Seattle (Biomedical EngineeringDepartment), and the Seattle Handicapped Center.

Miscellaneous conferences attended were:

31 October-i November 1967: Dro Ware and Mr. Bergerattended a joint Application Team meeting hosted by theResearch Triangle Institute;

12, 13 February 1968: Dro Ware and Mr_ Berger attended aconference on the utilization of space technology in mentalretardation research, sponsored by NASA and The NationalInstitute of Child Health and Human Development. On thisoccasion, the Southwest Research Institute Team presenteda paper titled "Search Strategy in Communication Networksin the Biomedical Application Program. "

(Work concerning new problem solicitation was minimal during thisreporting period, since the program operated at a reduced level,pending completion of contract negotiations. )

V. INSIGHTS INTO THE TRANSFER PROCESS

V. INSIGHTS INTO THE TRANSFER PROCESS

29

The conclusions that were expressed in the last Final Report

regarding thoughtful consideration of potential new problems were applied

in communications with the new as well as the older participating research

institutions. In order to improve the program efficiency, a number of

problem areas of interest to newly participating researchers at the

University of Texas Medical Branch were prescreened, and resulting

information was furnished to these researchers, together with suggestions

about potentially fruitful problem areas, as a guide to planning problem

statement submission.

Preliminary discussions were initiated at the Texas Institute for

Rehabilitation and Research for the purpose of developing new problem

statements. It was agreed that particularly favorable conditions for

problem statement submission existed in the case of two newly funded

research projects which had available funds, personnel, and which

involved specific and pressing problem areas. These funded projects

will be important sources of new problem statements. Team members

will work closely with the research program investigators in developing

problem statements from these projects.

The need for careful approach to problem statement acceptance was

discussed also at some length during briefing sessions with key adminis-

trative and research personnel at three of the new member institutions:

Rancho Los Amigos Hospital, University of Washington, Department of

Biomedical Engineering, and Seattle Handicapped Center.

During the first year of program performance, we frequently found

that researchers and administrators at participating institutions had stereo-

typed misconceptions about the aims and mechanisms of the NASA program.

Frequently, staff members believe the program to be essentially a

literature search and information retrieval program; perhaps this mis-

conception was engendered by some of the terminology which frequently

crops up in the program execution, such as information transfer, technology

transfer, technology utilization. The assumption also was sometimes made

that the program would routinely furnish hardware on request, and that its

function was similar to that of a hardware surplus disbursing agency. It

seemed indicated, in the light of these misconceptions, to emphasize in

initial briefing interviews the things that the program was not primarily

concerned with, as well as describing the program function in positive.

terms. It remains to be seen whether this approach will significantly

reduce the researchers' misconceptions about the ongoing program.

VI. PROJECTIONS FOR THE NEXT QUARTER

31

The next quarter's effort will be concentrated in two major areas:

(1) Implementing the program at the institutions on the West Coast which

have recently been added to the program; this will include continued

briefings of the special consultant who will primarily be responsible for

communications with these institutions, to make him thoroughly familiar

with the procedures and practices which have been developed in conjunction

with this program over the past year and a half. In addition, as this

consultant has extensive administrative experience within NASA, and,

since he is looking at the program with a fresh and unbiased viewpoint, his

suggestions and recommendations for improving program efficiency will be

solicited. (2) The institutions who have participated since the program

inception will continue to be serviced.

In connection with the new participating member institutions, interest

profile development will continue, and problem submission will be simulated,

subject to the considerations discussed in Section V. Essentially, these

institutions are at the stage that our old member institutions were in the

beginning of the program, and the work to be performed in this phase of

institutional development will parallel the work performed at the old

institutions a year and a half ago, with the benefit of application of the

skills and insights gained in institutional development during the first

18 months of project performance°

Regarding the older institutions, most of the previously submitted

problems have either become inactive or have resulted in actual or potential

transfers; in the latter case, Team activity will center about aiding

completion of transfer activity as required, including complete documenta-

tion. The approaches to new problem submissions from the Texas Institute

for Rehabilitation and Research, Baylor University School of Medicine, and

The University of Texas Medical Branch, which have been discussed in

Section V, will be followed during the next quarter.

Some changes in staff utilization of institutions in the Houston/

Galveston area have been planned: Mrs. Sarah Garrison, Information

Specialist at Texas Institute for Rehabilitation and Research, will take over

much of the document dispersal and records keeping function previously

executed by Mr. Joe Canzonerio It is planned to spend sufficient time with

Mrs. Garrison to work out efficient procedural details. It is also planned

to have two members of the Biomedical Application Team take on increasingly

more of the Team contacts at Texas Institute for Rehabilitation and Research

and The University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, in order to

utilize the Team's capabilities more efficiently° Mr. C. J. Laenger, Sr.,

and Mr. Robert J. Crosby have technological backgrounds and interestswhich will be especially useful in the problem areas of intense activity inthe two last mentioned member institutions.

Besides frequent site visits to the participating member institutions,a program review meeting is planned at Southwest Research Institute forlate May, and a Technology Utilization Division staff meeting will beattended at Langley Research Center in early June.
