Abstract:

The primary objectives of the DREAMS project for FY 2006 are threefold 1 further advance our studies focused on delineating the mechanisms underlying cell protection under stress conditions in wounds, 2 continue development of a new axial flow pump designed to maintain cardiac output in cardiogenic and hemorrhagic shock, and 3 initiate a study designed to optimize the biocompatibility of carbonbased nanomaterials suitable for military applications. These three objectives are in accord with the Science, Triage, and Treatment STAT component of DREAMS that aims to develop new ways of diagnosing and treating tissue injuries and infection in combat situations.
