BIOLOGICALLY BASED MATERIALS AND DEVICES
Abstract
The Biologically Based Materials and Devices project will leverage the growing application space of the biological sciences for the development of new DoD capabilities to improve the sustainability of warfighters, and operational platforms in varied environments. This project will develop solutions for critical resource processing, materials development, threat detection and characterization, environmental remediation, and warfighter resilience to infectious disease and environmental stressors. The materials developed through this project will protect and sustain warfighters and operations in austere environments. This project supports innovation and robust transition planning in the technology cycle by working with entrepreneurs to increase the likelihood that DARPA-funded technologies take root in the U.S. and provide new capabilities for national defense.
