TATRC Purpose and Mission

TATRC is an organization within the headquarters of the US Army Medical Research and Materiel Command with threeArmy Medical Research and Materiel Command with three key functions:

– Bring together engineering and physical and life sciences (“convergence”) to solve problems in military medicine

– Medical science and technology scouts for the DoD– Medical research innovation in the DoD with transition to

programs of record

Time Horizon: DARPA TATRC Program of Record

Years to Mature: 20 5 now

Convergence Science

• Convergence is the ongoing merger of life, physical and engineering sciences, involving a new integrated approach for

hi i dachieving advances• Examples are bioinformatics, synthetic biology, tissue engineering,

biomaterials, computational , pbiology (“nano-bio-info” convergence)

• Convergence is a blueprint for• Convergence is a blueprint for innovation necessary for accessible, personalized, affordable healthcare

• Convergence is embedded in the DoD through TATRC andthe DoD through TATRC and its external partners (e.g., CIMIT)

Why TATRC is Successful

• Agility that comes from not being constrained by the RDT&E programming and planning cycleprogramming and planning cycle

• We don’t jump off our best horses in the middle of the race (i.e., not just a grants program distributing funding, we want to cross the finish line to solve relevant military medical problems)problems)

• Known entity for revolutionary investigators to seek support y y g ppfor unconventional ideas and to connect to each other

• “Deputy for Advanced Medical Technology” reports directly to CG, USAMRMC, without bureaucratic layers
