Transformational Liaisons (Trl), Llc
Washington D.C. Metro Area
The mission of Transformational Liaisons (TRL) LLC is to help ensure success on behalf of clients such as universities, companies, and government research entities in taking on some of the most daunting R&D challenges of our time. TRL works as a catalyst on behalf of clients to overcome the underlying barriers to success for different research challenges by leveraging internal expertise, contacts and infrastructure across multiple government agencies and labs across widely different R&D disciplines. The goal is to provide a synergistic synthesis between historically isolated academic disciplines, departments, conferences, and journals leading to successful multidisciplinary research proposals and project outcomes. TRL is focused on the needed research infrastructure to accelerate the coherent development of the following transformational technologies that possess a huge potential for cross technology fertilization:• the strategic vision for the Materials Genome Initiative [MGI]• exascale computing [and interdisciplinary computing needs] • additive manufacturing or 3D printing• advanced hardware for high performance computing [HPC]• machine learning and artificial intelligence • renewable energy technology [solar, battery, fuel cells, wind, smart grid technology]• computer simulation [open access modeling codes, drug trial simulation]• multiscale materials modeling (MMM), materials by design, materials databases • advanced materials characterization and measurement techniques• nanotechnology• high-temperature superconducting technology [MRI, magnets, transmission lines, etc.]• high power lasers
