Description
This opportunity funds extramural research and development projects that advance biomedical and human performance knowledge, technologies, and products relevant to U.S. Special Operations Forces (SOF) and broader military and civilian health needs. The program seeks innovative solutions that address operational medical gaps, enhance human performance, and improve survivability and recovery in austere, far-forward, and resource-limited environments. Research may span basic to applied science and is intended to benefit both military personnel and the general public.
Priority areas include, but are not limited to: damage control resuscitation, prolonged field care, medical sensors/devices, portable diagnostics, force health protection, brain health, automation of systematic reviews, human performance optimization, canine medicine and performance, and medical sustainment. Projects must demonstrate clear relevance to SOF requirements and have the potential for commercialization or broad implementation.
