About SEMI NBMC
The SEMI Nano-Bio Materials Consortium (NBMC) is a public-private collaboration with the Air Force Research Laboratories (AFRL) focused on nano-bio technologies enabling the Aeromedical (AE) and En-Route Care (ERC) mission of the Air Force. The emphasis is on advanced electronics to develop technologies relevant not only to health monitoring but also diagnostics and performance augmentation. These innovations will lay the groundwork for new products in digital health and personalized medicine as well as for enabling new human-performance monitoring/augmentation capabilities and aeromedical-monitoring and diagnostics capabilities within the En-Route care mission for the US Air Force.
Through collaboration with industry partners and leading US universities bridging the gap between engineering and life science disciplines and driving toward next generation precision health and personalized medicine, NBMC will advance materials, integrated electronics, and software to innovate and demonstrate medically relevant electronic systems that address challenges as defined by the aeromedical community.
