This grant is for the purpose of developing the Biologically-derived Medicines on Demand (Bio-MOD) program, aiming to create devices and techniques for producing multiple protein biologics rapidly at the point-of-care. This initiative addresses specific battlefield threats and urgent medical needs. Key objectives include investing in novel, flexible genetic engineering methodologies for microbial, eukaryotic, and cell-free systems to synthesize protein-based therapeutics. Additionally, it seeks to develop portable device platforms for manufacturing diverse biologics with high purity and potency in short timeframes. Ultimately, Bio-MOD will establish a responsive battlefield medical supply, empowering military medics with critical, on-demand treatments in far-forward emergency and in-theater situations.

| Description: | The Bio-MOD program seeks to develop devices and techniques to produce multiple protein biologics in response to specific battlefield threats and medical needs. This will be achieved by investing in (1) novel, flexible methodologies for genetic engineering/modification of microbial strains, eukaryotic strains, and/or cell-free systems to synthesize multiple protein-based therapeutics; and (2) flexible and portable device platforms for manufacturing multiple biologics with high purity, efficacy and potency at the point-of-care, in short timeframes, when the specific need arises. Consequently, Bio-MOD will provide a battlefield medical supply for military medics at the front lines of support that is responsive to far-forward emergency settings and emergent in-theater needs. |
