Abstract
This Project fosters basic research on physiological and psychological factors that limit Warfighter effectiveness and on characterization of health hazards generated by military systems that result as a consequence of military operations; includes research on the neurobehavioral aspects of post-traumatic stress; develops concepts for medical countermeasures to prevent or mitigate the effects of muscle and bone injury to include reducing the effects of sleep loss and other stressors on Warfighter performance. The hazards of exposure to directed energy, repetitive use, fatigue, heat, cold, and altitude are also investigated under this Project. Work in this Project complements and is fully coordinated with PE 0602787A (Medical Technology). Funding has been realigned to reflect the FY20 financial restructure and Army Modernization Priorities. The cited work is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense (Research and Engineering) science and technology focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy.
