The Henry M. Jackson Foundation for the Advancement of Military Medicine is a global nonprofit organization created by Congress in 1983 to assist in accelerating the progress of military medicine. Our unmatched experience in military medical research makes us uniquely qualified to assist investigators and clinicians in managing scientific research. By providing exceptional program management services, we relieve the administrative burden associated with medical research, empowering researchers to make the medical discoveries our warfighters need. Our mission is to advance Military Medicine and our objectives are clear: to carry out medical research and education projects that provide answers and drive change while removing barriers to success; to serve as a trusted and responsive link between the military medical community, its private partners and American service members, veterans and civilians; to encourage engagement of the medical community for the mutual benefit of military and civilians, who benefit from this work. HJF is committed to supporting Military Medicine serving as the connective tissue between its industry partners and the research environment. We are driven to solve the biggest puzzles and hardest problems by using the resources necessary to support the mission. We anticipate needs, responding at the pace of change to focus on continually adding value to military medical research.

  Exciting breakthrough in the diagnosis of melioidosis! A recent study introduced a portable electrochemical immunosensor for the detection and quantification of capsular polysaccharide (CPS) as a biomarker. The biosensor, developed with four monoclonal antibodies, exhibited impressive sensitivity, detecting CPS in urine and serum within a wide range of concentrations. The rapid electro-analytical device (READ) sensor showcased unprecedented sensitivity in identifying CPS molecules. This innovative technology was further validated against ELISA methods, confirming its accuracy and reliability in diagnosing melioidosis. The biosensor's integration into a Windows app adds an extra layer of accessibility and convenience to this groundbreaking diagnostic tool. This research not only demonstrates the efficacy of the biosensor in detecting CPS but also highlights the potential for advancements in melioidosis diagnosis. #Melioidosis #Biosensor #MedicalResearch I want to recognize all our co-authors and collaborators.
