Army Operational Readiness

APL is working with the Army to ensure our warfighters are the best-protected and best-prepared fighting force in the world. We are applying our extensive capabilities in biology, biomechanics, neuroscience, systems engineering, computational modeling, and advanced analytics to predict and prevent injury and illness from traditional and emerging threats as well as to optimize mental and physical performance.

Navy Health and Readiness

This program focuses on the health, readiness, and survivability of the naval forces, optimizing delivery of care in operational settings and ensuring medically ready and ready medical forces. APL takes a data-driven approach to predict and prevent warfighter injury and illness, and leverages technological advances in sensors, data science, and intelligent systems to deploy capabilities to our warfighters in the operational environment. Through transdisciplinary teams, this program integrates advanced research, systems engineering, and technology development to address critical operational medicine challenges.
