Department of Defense Microbiome Research: A Summary of the Second Annual DOD Tri-Service Microbiome Consortium Informational Meeting

Abstract

The United States Department of Defense (DOD) Tri-Service Microbiome Consortium (TSMC) was chartered in December 2016 by the U.S. Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering to enhance collaboration, coordination, and communication of microbiome research among DOD organizations. The TSMC aims to serve as a forum for sharing information related to DOD microbiome research, policy, and applications, to monitor global advances relevant to human health and performance, to identify priority objectives, and to facilitate Tri-Service (Army, Navy, and Air Force) collaborative research. This report details the outcomes from the second annual TSMC workshop, held 8-10 May 2018, in Bethesda, MD.
