The Joint Medical Simulation Technology Research and Development Center (JMSTRDC) will serve as the principal center and focal point for collaboration between the primary defense organizations conducting research and development activities in medical modeling and simulation for training, therapy, and rehabilitation.
This will be a joint cooperative initiative that will support research projects, teamwork, and information sharing between the TATRC, USAMRMC; STTC, RDECOM; and other defense activities engaged in medical simulation RDT&E.
The primary mission of the JMSTRDC will be to promote more rapid research, development, evaluation, acquisition, and fielding of military medical modeling and simulation technologies and products, including adaptation of commercial off-the-shelf products and technologies, where appropriate.
The JMSTRDC will provide focused coordination of research activities, information sharing, rapid response, quick turn-around, and smooth transition to the field in response to pressing military operational and warfighter health, safety, and medical training needs.
