Data Collection at Point of Care
We know that we want the answer to be that each medic has time to document everything happening around them, but realistically, that just isn't the case. And in the future fight, the operating environment will be exponentially more dispersed and fast paced. Current data collection at the point of care requires caregivers to stop providing casualty care and record information in a document/system of record...
See PostOur Mission is to automate casualty care by fusing data, humans, and machines into trustworthy solutions that optimize medical performance and casualty outcomes.
CORE RESEARCH
Data Sciences
Our Data Sciences Division (DSD) aims to enhance the speed of data-to-decisions (D2D) across the care continuum. Refines data strategy, data standards, and interoperability framework with partners. Works with internal and external partners to analyze data, curate it, and model it. Accelerates change using insights from data.
Human Technology Teaming & Medical Performance Research
Our Medical Modeling, Simulation, Information and Visualization (MMSIV) team dedicated to studying technology’s impact on casualty care in militarily relevant contexts using high-fidelity simulation. The Nexus is a forum for research and collaboration, bringing together scientists, engineers, clinicians, advanced developers, and other stakeholders around simulation events of challenging healthcare and to solve problems together.
Robotics & Engineering
Our Medical Robotics and Autonomous Systems (MedRAS) team develops novel robotic solutions, controlled remotely or autonomously, that team with humans to reduce task saturation, perform in contexts that are unsafe for humans, and ultimately increase the capability and thus capacity of caregivers at the point of need.
Science Technology Innovation Management and Synchronization
Our Science Technology Innovation Management and Synchronization (STIMS) team leads the development and execution of solution delivery plans and coordinates the activities of intramural and extramural partners.
AMTI
Advanced Medical Technology Initiative
Advanced Medical Technology Initiative (AMTI) Program facilitates bottom-up technology innovation while simultaneously informing top-down acquisition throughout Military Medicine. Program execution encompasses small funding investments at the facility/individual level in two distinct categories: Rapid Innovation Funding (RIF) and Extended Innovation Funding (EIF) for which the period of performance for each category is limited to 6 and 18 months respectively.
