Expanding Human Resiliency

Abstract

The Expanding Human Resiliency program aims to maximize warfighter resiliency by leveraging the human microbiome to improve physiology. This program will develop new technologies to control and manipulate the microbiome, expanding on current state-of-the-art approaches to have more precise and on-demand control of microbiomes. Technologies in this effort will be developed to elucidate the complex interactions between the microorganisms and their host as well as the interactions between consortia of adapted and evolved microorganisms. Advances in this area will both develop novel technologies to interrogate complex microbial communities in human systems and discover ways to beneficially harness microbiomes to expand warfighter resiliency.
