Military personnel face extreme physical and mental demands that require the capacity to overcome the negative physical and psychological effects of operating in challenging field environments. There is a critical need to invest in research that can enhance our force's physical fitness and mental performance—promoting resilience and aiding in mission success. The Human Enhancement Research Group at NPS will ensure the streamlined transfer of military-specific cognitive and physiological research to military training and operations. The HERG will result in injury prevention, reduced effects of post-traumatic stress disorder and lower suicide rates among active-duty service members and veterans.
