NMRDC Mission: To conduct research, development, testing, evaluation, and surveillance to optimize health, operational readiness, and performance of Navy, Marine Corps, and Joint Force personnel in all domains; at-sea, undersea, on land, in the air, and in space. NMRDC Vision: To deliver world-class, operationally-relevant medical solutions to enhance warfighter readiness through research & development. Navy Medicine's research and development laboratories are engaged in a broad spectrum of activity from basic science in the laboratory to field studies at sites in remote areas of the world to operational environments. The capabilities and the geographical locations of the laboratories reflect the broad mission of Navy Medicine's Research and Development. With a cadre of scientific leadership and technical expertise focusing on force health protection and enhancing deployment readiness, the research teams represent years of experience in science, medicine and the military. In support of the Navy, Marine Corps, and joint U.S. warfighters, researchers study infectious diseases; biological warfare detection and defense; combat casualty care; environment health concerns; aerospace and undersea medicine; medical modeling, simulation and operational mission support; and epidemiology and behavioral sciences. The goal is to deliver high-value, high-impact research products to support and protect today's deployed warfighters. At the same time researchers are looking to the readiness and well-being of future forces. The laboratories include:
