This week, The Intelligence Brief will be focusing on DARPA’s new program to protect warfighters against bloodstream infections that are caused by bacteria and fungi. This week we will be looking at 1) the announcement by DARPA of its new SHIELD initiative, 2) the challenges that led to the new DARPA program, and 3) the claim that SHIELD can clean your bloodstream like a Roomba.
