Health Research

Abstract

This effort develops and validates novel tools and strategies to advance individualized operational exposure dosimetry (measures of exposure) and establish dose-response links between operational exposures and neurological (of or about the nerves and nervous system) and physical health. Dosimetry tools may include new technologies, human biomarkers (biologically derived indicator of a process, event or condition, e.g. protein), objective physiologic markers, physiological) modeling, and validated algorithms to evaluate the health effects of military service, including deployments, and methods to detect a Soldier's exposure to environmental contamination and/or toxic substances, e.g. toxic industrial chemicals (TIC).
