In this research, the team explores the challenge of multimodal queries for search in image and video corpuses. The query may include text, visual and/or audial cues, while the search engine will use all or part of modalities available in the raw data repository. ...

The researchers are currently creating the first Modern Hebrew speech data corpus including transcription and synchronization for sentences that will enable the construction of speech recognition, modeling, and synthesis systems....

Rapid Spore Detection Kit Prof. Sigal Ben Yehuda TTM 2022-16232 Bacterial spores are troublesome for various industries but particularly in the medical and food industries as they withstand traditional sanitation techniques such as pasteurization and insufficiently harsh autoclaves. Successful sanitation can be monitored via commercially available kits but this takes anywhere between 24 min to 24 hours and there are limitations in time, efficiency, accuracy, and sensitivity. The researchers at HUJI have developed a technology that can reduce wait times to 5 min and therefore provides a breakthrough in spore-detection technology.

Typically, herbicides cause deformities in weeds by inhibiting cell division, photosynthesis, or amino acid production. Our new approach for vegetation control is based on changing the ion balance and dehydrating the plant....

Launching experiments into space is extremely limited and costly. With the increase in space tourism and the transition to “new space,” there is an increased market demand for research, technology, and solutions for medical challenges typical to space flight. Our simulator (Random Positioning Machine – RPM, Airbus) can mimic microgravity in space....

There is a growing unmet need for novel treatment of an extreme inflammatory response to infection. The global cytokine storm therapy market is poised to grow at a lucrative rate with the increasing incidence of multi-drug resistant bacterial strains, sepsis, surging viral diseases, inflammatory diseases such as pancreatitis, autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, and others, coupled with the escalating research, clinical development, and healthcare expenditures....

The successful development of this probiotic is likely to reduce Salmonella levels in commercial poultry operations in both broiler, layer, and breeder operations. This will reduce morbidity and mortality of chicks resulting in a more ethical and efficient operation. Also likely is a reduction in zoonotic infections, through contaminated meat or eggs, and levels of antibiotic resistant Salmonella. This product will theoretically be able to replace salmonella specific vaccination, and reduce the need for antibiotic veterinary interventions. This product will hypothetically be able to reduce levels of other poultry gut pathogens such as Campylobacter and Clostridium....

The collaborating research institutes are looking for partners to sponsor further research and development for both (1) formulation of dietary supplement for increased bioavailability and (2) further in vivo mice studies to characterize additional health benefits this Israeli plant can have on other diseases....

We are looking for industry partners to sponsor ongoing research, to license this technology and to bring this technology to market....

We are looking for industry partners to sponsor additional R&D, scale-up the technology, and commercializing its use. This technology can also be used for sterilizing agricultural equipment....
