In partnership with the Department of Defense and private support, MTEC is working to prevent injuries and accelerate the development of revolutionary medical solutions that will enhance wound healing, and return the wounded to fully functioning lives. Ultimately, all citizens will benefit from these technologies and health care solutions.
The reach of the MTEC team ensures that research developments and new technologies will be applied across the entire medical infrastructure for the benefit of the military, veterans, and civilians. Our collaboration aims to advance biomedicine including:
Providing sight to those who have lost their vision
Providing battlefield diagnostics and therapies to reduce the consequences of traumatic brain injury (TBI) and concussions
Developing evidence-based therapies for post-traumatic stress disorder to integrate warfighters back into families and society
Advancing cell therapies that heal previously irreparable nerve, vascular and organ damage
Developing new antibiotics to cure life‐threatening infections
Improving telehealth solutions that monitor warfighter health conditions during training and in battle
Reducing substance abuse during chronic pain relief
Commercializing cutting‐edge artificial limbs with greater comfort and functionality in the near term, and, in the longer term, providing limb transplants or regenerative medicine therapies to restore normal functions like walking, grasping and writing
Empowering medics through new advanced technologies to do more treatment at the point of injury
