The overall goal of this Fast-Track SBIR project is to evaluate the real-world adoption of KIOS, a patient-centered digital therapeutic / mobile app to assist in the effective self-management of Opioid Use Disorder (OUD). Previous work demonstrated that KIOS could chart the trajectories of patients with OUD by tracking concurrent changes in multiple clinical measures as they interact. KIOS makes it possible to process patient-entered data and provide responsive behavioral advice to patients specific to their condition in real time.

Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) and The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) have developed a method to synthesize the highly potent antimalarial drug artemisinin, which could lead to a more cost-effective treatment for malaria. The work, recently featured on the cover of the scientific journal Organic Letters, was supported by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation as well as a grant from the Connecting through Research Partnerships (Connect) program, a joint effort by SwRI and UTSA to enhance scientific collaboration between the two institutions.
