Emerging Opportunities in Modeling Basic Operational Medical Science
Abstract
The DoD will accelerate discovery and development by leveraging recent advances in computational methods to identify new capabilities and address evolving stressors encountered by warfighters. The Emerging Opportunities in Modeling Basic Operational Medical Science thrust seeks to advance machine learning and artificial intelligence to create physics-based simulation of biological function with undetermined or broad military utility. This thrust will seek to understand fundamental biological processes to accurately simulate, and thus predict biological functions, identify emergent properties, predict antibiotic resistance, and help accelerate biology research. Accurate, extensible, and interpretable physics-based simulations of microbial cell behavior will help maintain domestic competitiveness in biomedical research, increase the resiliency of supply chains, serve as a tool for public health and to ensure biosecurity. Technologies in this effort will be developed to create high-fidelity simulations of fundamental biological processes.
