  • Under Body Blast (UBB) Medical Research Industry Day, March 15-18, Arlington, Va

    The Deputy Project Manager-Medical (DPM-Medical) of the DoD UBB medical research program at USAMRMC is hosting an Industry Day.

    For more information (including all 5 objectives) and registration, please see https://blastinjuryresearch.amedd.ar...ication.ubbrfi

    Industry Day Dates: March 15-18, 2011
    Location: RAND Corporation Offices in Arlington, Virginia

    Objective #2: Allow performers/producers of existing technologies and research efforts that are highly relevant to understanding human tolerance limits and predicting injuries sustained by ground combat vehicle occupants as a result of UBB from explosive devices, such as mines and improvised explosive devices (IEDs), and which will enhance the Live Fire Test and Evaluation (LFT&E) community's ability to assess ground combat vehicle occupant survivability in live fire tests, and support the development and testing of effective occupant protection systems to identify how they can assist in accomplishing proposed research effort

    Objective #5: Obtain information from a broad community, including industry, academia, and other federal agencies on the availability of militarily relevant blast test devices, that can realistically measure the human tolerance limits necessary for predicting ground combat vehicle occupant injuries in UBB live fire tests.

    Participation at the UBB Industry Day is on a first-come basis and is limited to 150 approved participants, with no more than three subject matter experts (participants) representing a given institution. There is no registration fee for the UBB Industry Day and early registration is highly encouraged. This site will close once 150 participants are confirmed, but no later than March 4, 2011 at 12:00 midnight , Eastern Standard Time. No submissions will be accepted after that time.

    Presentations
    Each organization represented will be asked to prepare in advance and present a brief overview (10 slides / 15-20 minutes maximum to be shared in an open forum at the Industry Day) outlining their current research or technology development efforts that are relevant to the topic of this meeting. Copies of the slides must be emailed to medblastprogram@amedd.army.mil no later than March 8, 2011.
