JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIO-FORT SAM HOUSTON (Dec. 8, 2025) Dr. Jeremy Pamplin, (center) program manager, Biological Technologies Office, Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), views a novel synthetic blood product that is being developed under DARPA’s Fieldable Solutions for Hemorrhage with bio-Artificial Resuscitation Products (FSHARP) program at the Battlefield Health & Trauma Research Institute. Naval Medical Research Unit (NAMRU) San Antonio serves as the Independent Validation & Verification partner for the FSHARP program to perform laboratory testing for safety and efficacy. The FSHARP program works to develop a deployable, shelf-stable, universal whole blood substitute as a hemorrhage countermeasure to sustain injured warfighters in austere, pre-hospital settings. NAMRU San Antonio, part of Navy Medicine Research & Development, works alongside research partners in the civilian sphere, academia, industry, and other government agencies to drive support of the Department of War’s objectives for a lethal fighting force and ensures U.S. service members have access to the latest scientific advances. NAMRU San Antonio conducts gap-driven combat casualty care, craniofacial, and directed energy research in support of Navy, Marine Corps and joint U.S. warfighter health readiness and lethality while engaged in routine and expeditionary operations.
