Abstract
The Army Research Laboratory (ARL) is executing a robust Biosciences Research program and is examining potential new opportunities to collaborate.  In particular, ARL is exploring ways to tap into broad areas of bioengineering and bio/non-bio integration at the nano and micro levels.   The presentation will provide an overview of the ARL Biosciences program, examples of current research, potential areas of collaboration, the ARL Open Campus initiative, and mechanisms for facilitating collaborative research involving academic faculty and students.
