DARPA has created a new division, the Biological Technologies Office (BTO), to explore the increasingly dynamic intersection of biology and the physical sciences. Its goals are to harness the power of biological systems by applying the rigorous tools of engineering and related disciplines, and to design next-generation technologies that are inspired by insights gained from the life sciences... All told, BTO will explore the intricate and highly adapted mechanisms of natural processes and demonstrate how they can be applied to the mission of national defense. Three research focus areas reflect the scale and scope of BTO’s mission. Restore and Maintain Warfighter Abilities: (IN REAL TIME) Harness Biological Systems: Apply Biological Complexity at Scale:
