at USAMRMC. “What can we produce quickly to bring us up to parity with our potential adversaries?” asked Ludwig. “It is not what we can do as individuals, but what we could do collectively to make that actually happen.”


Ludwig also mentioned that shared data can be beneficial to peers working on seemingly unrelated projects. “Tis integrative approach to biomedical research provides us an opportunity to get to a level of complexity that we have never been able to get to before,” he said.


CONCLUSION Te two-day workshop demonstrated the current breadth of collaborative and integrative efforts across the enterprise, but also served as a catalyst for future collaborations by bringing researchers together to stimulate discussion and social interac- tion. Participants surveyed after the workshop indicated in an overwhelming majority—83 percent—that they anticipate start- ing new collaborations as a result of the networking conducted during the workshop.


“I think it is a fantastic activity, bringing people across depart- ments together to share different approaches to take and different problems to solve,” said Petro. “Te mission we have here is crit- ical, and no one else can do it.”

“We are all working on the same puzzle. How do we


organize ourselves strategically? The opportunity I see here is convergence.
