Transitioning the Defense Automated Neurobehavioral Assessment (DANA) to Operational Use

Abstract

This grant prepares DANA (Defense Automated Neurobehavioral Assessment), the next-generation neurocognitive assessment tool (NCAT), for transition into operational military use. The effort is organized around two foci - science and transition. The science concentrates on CONUS-based studies such as testing DANA in clinical drug, fatigue/alertness, concussion and/or depression protocols. All studies have completed data collection. Data analysis and manuscript preparation are currently underway. Ongoing analysis shows promise regarding DANAs applicability. The second thrust, transition, included obtaining FDA clearance for DANA and positioning DANA to be operationally deployed into the military.
