Ketone esters—oral supplements useful in epilepsy treatment—are being studied to fight seizures caused by hyperbaric oxygen toxicity, a life-threatening byproduct of breathing too much oxygen that impacts deep-water divers.

With ONR support, engineers at MIT have designed a portable measurement system to precisely monitor the amount of electricity used by household appliances, lighting fixtures and electronic devices.

Enlisting the aid of experts from the Office of Naval Research (ONR), a Maryland-based nonprofit rolled out a series of educational science competitions for area middle and high school students on Sept. 17.

The Department of the Navy’s (DoN) Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program is seeking the talents of small business partners who can help provide advanced solutions as quickly as possible to the mission-critical challenges faced by Sailors and Marines. SBIR – located at the Office of Naval Research (ONR) – issued a $50 million Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for “Open” topics in areas where the DoN wants to adapt commercial products and solutions to close capability gaps, improve performance or provide technological advancements in existing capabilities. The ultimate goal is to accelerate the delivery of a prototype that has been tested and is ready for transition to the forces and fleets. The BAA, titled 23.4, is open to proposal submission from July 13 to Aug.15. Topics include mission critical needs in the areas of Operations and Logistics in a Contested Environment and Holistic Common Operational Picture (COP).

A scientist sponsored by the Office of Naval Research (ONR) has won a “genius grant” from the MacArthur Foundation for his investigations into how the tiniest materials can improve electronics, medical devices and renewable energy—three critical areas for the Navy.

The Office of Naval Research held two science and technology (S&T) discussion panels during the recent 2024 Naval Science and Technology (S&T)/Combat Systems/Technology, Systems and Ships Symposium in Arlington, Virginia.

The Navy Metalworking Center (NMC) presented its current and planned projects to the Metals Subpanel of the Joint Defense Manufacturing Technology Panel (JDMTP) July 20-21 at Concurrent Technologies Corporation (CTC) in Johnstown, Pennsylvania.

The Office of Naval Research (ONR) recently hosted more than 100 experts for discussions on how science and technology can improve warfighter performance—and in the process assembled a panel of leading specialists that could transform training, experimentation and planning for Navy missions and operations.

To determine the cause of extreme fatigue in Navy divers, the Office of Naval Research (ONR) is sponsoring work examining the most critical weapon in a diver’s arsenal—oxygen itself.
