Bio-enabled Materials and Processes
Abstract
The effort conducts fundamental research through the application of biotechnology advances to develop materials with capabilities to respond and adapt to a wide range of external stimuli and biological processes. Investment in Bio-enabled materials research allows the design of materials that are capable of sensing and responding, as well as adapting to a broad spectrum of environmental variables with ability to self-monitor, self-heal and self-sustain. Investments in this area could lead to future applications in Solider performance, situational awareness, protection and sustainment. Research from this effort has potential to transition to multiple end items and applications.
