Biological Adaptation, Assembly and Manufacturing
Abstract
The Biological Adaptation, Assembly and Manufacturing program examined the structure, function, and informational basis underlying biological system adaptation, and the factors employed by the organism to assemble and manufacture complex biological subsystems. The unique stability afforded biological systems in their ability to adapt to wide extremes of physical and psychological parameters was examined and exploited in order to engineer stability into biological systems required for the military. Applications to Defense systems include the development of chemical and biological sensors; tools for strategic military decision-makers involved in information operations, and improved warfighter battlefield survivability.
