The DoD MIIs seek to revitalize the U.S.’s domestic manufacturing capability through domestic public-private partnerships that enhance America’s strategic competitiveness while enabling the military of tomorrow. This is achieved through three primary activities hosted by the institutes:
- Advancing research and development (R&D) to promote American innovation while modernizing our military capabilities
- Growing manufacturing ecosystems to enhance the Nation’s competitiveness
- Furthering education and workforce development to train Americans of all ages and backgrounds for jobs of the future
The ability of the military to respond to an emergency depends on our Nation’s ability to produce needed parts and systems, healthy and secure supply chains, and a skilled U.S. workforce. The DoD MIIs connect organizations and activities to better enable the affordable, rapid transition and delivery of defense-essential technologies.
Significant breakthroughs in cell biology, biofabrication, and materials science in the last decade have laid the foundation for scalable manufacturing and commercialization of engineered tissues and tissue-related technologies. BioFabUSA has targeted the raw material, equipment, measurement, automation, logistics and big data analytics challenges that hinder scalable, consistent, and cost-effective manufacturing. The development of tissue-engineered medical products on an industrial scale enables DoD to accelerate creation of numerous medical products for our wounded warfighters, which support force readiness and save lives on the battlefield.
