🌟 **Empowering Innovation for the Warfighter at MBB Symposium!** 🌟 Today, at the Friday Center in Chapel Hill, we unite to advance the frontiers of medical, biomedical, and biodefense technologies in support of our Warfighters. The MBB Symposium is a testament to the incredible synergy within our innovation ecosystem, bringing together thought leaders, researchers, and industry experts to address the most pressing challenges faced by our military. From groundbreaking research to life-saving technologies, every discussion, presentation, and collaboration here is driven by a common mission: to enhance the health, safety, and effectiveness of those who serve on the front lines.

The U.S. Space Force wants to work with private space companies to improve the United States' position in space. This strategy will make the U.S. military space systems more effective and resistant to attack. According to the latest strategy paper, the Space Force will achieve this by working together with commercial companies, other countries' space programs, and the United States Department of Defense. They will focus on four areas: being open with each other, making sure systems work well together, managing risks, and planning for the future. The Space Force wants to make the most of what commercial space companies can offer and will focus on getting things done quickly. They are also looking for commercial companies to help them with specific tasks. This plan will help the U.S. military in peacetime, during competition with other countries, and during conflicts. It will also guide how the Space Force works with other countries like the Government of Canada.

Great to see NATO taking concrete steps to formally engage in the space domain. NATO’s ability to set internationally accepted standards will prove critical to establishing true interoperability in the space domain.

"As active military operations fade into the background of America’s collective consciousness, so does the focus on veteran studies research. This is cutting-edge research that helps create, update, and improve public policies, programs, and services that support our nation’s veterans and loved ones, with applications to all Americans. What happens if this stops?"

Working on the end of my masters right now, but aiming to submit for 2025 conference. Here's a little more: The 2024 Veterans in Society conference, Tidal Changes in the "Sea of Goodwill," will explore whether and how changes in society mark an inflection point regarding the treatment and experiences of veterans in the U.S. and abroad. We invite scholars and policy professionals at all levels — including students and those outside of academia — to cross national, cultural, historical, and disciplinary boundaries to consider important turning points in a nation’s support for its veterans. https://lnkd.in/et9cX6Bm

The “Space Spine” - An Unbreakable (unbeatable) Backbone. Contrary to the mega-shopping in the exhibition halls, the 39th Space Symposium offered much more than supersized swag bags of samples. More lasting and long-lived than the sessions and socials, a fellowship was fused together and fine-tuned as the domain’s Senior Enlisted Warfighters broke through the geo-boundaries of alliance and beyond the politics of partners. We are fast becoming the foundation of a first-element formation, and the strength and sinew of National Security Space … collectively more connected, coordinated, committed to cooperation, and in cadence. Our “mind-melding” in the mastery of multinational/multilateral military operations was truly more meaningful than the many-many meetings, especially as we work together to exponentially mold and mature the joint and coalition forces to be credible and conditioned for great power competition, crisis, or conflict. At no time in the history of the world has the combined cognitive capability of the enlisted force been more determining of our delta and destiny. #SpaceSpine #AsymmetricAstrographicAdvantage #OnGuard

A lot is at stake for the United States Space Force in the fiscal year 2024 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). As the newest military service prepares to mark the fourth anniversary of its creation, the work of standing up and maturing the structure and organization of the Space Force is not yet complete. There are two things in particular the Space Force needs from Congress in this year’s NDAA, and one issue where the help Congress is offering would be counterproductive.
