According to the press release, "The objective of this contract program is to integrate component technologies developed in DARPA's Dialysis Like Therapeutics (DLT) program into medical device that would save military and civilian lives by effectively treating sepsis. Beyond expanding our opportunity in the DLT program, we are honored to have the opportunity to work with Battelle (the world's largest independent research and development organization) on this endeavor."
The Company's Chairman and CEO also went on to say, "I am pleased to report that the funding spigot for countermeasures against bioterror and pandemic threats has been turned back on. Last month, The Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness Reauthorization Act (PAHPRA) of 2013 was signed into law by President Obama. The law reauthorizes provisions of the Project Bioshield Act of 2004 and extends the mandate of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) to support medical countermeasure development for biothreat agents for possible inclusion in the U.S. Strategic National Stockpile. PAHPRA also enhances the authority of the FDA to support rapid responses to public health emergencies by clarifying that even before an event occurs, FDA may issue an emergency use authorization to allow emergency use of certain products as medical countermeasures. The Congressional Budget Office estimates that $11 billion will be spent on PAHPRA between fiscal years 2014 to 2018."
