The Biologically-derived Medicines on Demand (Bio-MOD) program seeks to develop innovative devices and techniques for rapidly producing diverse protein biologics. This Department of Defense grant is for the purpose of addressing specific battlefield threats and urgent medical requirements. It will support research into flexible genetic engineering of microbial, eukaryotic, and cell-free systems to synthesize multiple protein-based therapeutics. Furthermore, the grant will fund the creation of portable device platforms for manufacturing high-purity, efficacious biologics swiftly at the point-of-care. Ultimately, Bio-MOD aims to establish a responsive battlefield medical supply chain, empowering military medics with critical, on-demand treatments in remote and emergency settings.

| 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. |
