Partnership with the U.S. Army
The ISN is sponsored through the U.S.
Army Research Office in Durham, North Carolina. More than
just a sponsor, the U.S.
Army is an important partner in solving the problems of
the soldier. While the ISN's nanotechnology approach is new,
scientists at the Army have been working to address soldiers'
challengeslike excess weight and insufficient ballistic
protectionfor decades. The ISN fits into the Army's
Future
Force Warrior program.
Many of these programs are supported by basic and applied
research conducted at the Natick
Soldier Center in Natick, Massachusetts. The Army
Research Laboratory (ARL) and Assistant
Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics, and Technology
[ASA(ALT)] are also key ISN partners.
