And the (contract) award goes to … Arizona State University (ASU). Specifically, the Defense Threat Reduction Agency recently awarded ASU a Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation (RDT&E) contract comprising a 12-month performance base period with a $9 million value in addition to a 36-month option valued at $21,500.
ASU’s mission is to design a fieldable, chip-based warfighter health-monitoring system prototype that can identify health changes of the warfighter. The goal: early infection detection.
The contract’s work will occur in Tempe, Arizona.
