BIOLOGICALLY BASED MATERIALS AND DEVICES
Abstract
This project acknowledges the growing and pervasive influence of the biological sciences on the development of new DoD capabilities. This influence extends throughout the development of new materials, devices, and processes and relies on the integration of biological breakthroughs with those in engineering and the physical sciences. Contained in this project are thrusts that apply biology's unique fabrication and manufacturing capabilities to produce novel chemicals and materials at scale, as well as research to develop new high-throughput methods and devices to analyze biological changes at the cellular and molecular level. Additional work leverages advances in synthetic biology to engineer novel biological systems and develop new approaches to biosecurity. This project also includes major efforts aimed at integrating biological, computational, and digital sensing methodologies to explore neuroscience technology and maintain human combat performance.
