Why You Should Attend This Summit:

This year’s Summit will highlight the implications of hybrid human machine thinking on the Warfighter and how it affects enhanced performance capabilities. Further, senior leaders will address the importance of the diet, exercise, sleep triad and the impact it has on human performance and mental health as the staple of all-around wellness. A broader discussion on long-term, sustainable fitness will offer attendees insight into the cultural shift of health and wellness within the Armed Services, as well as, tracking a number of biometric markers to assess environmental impacts on the human body, such as during space missions. This year’s panel will assemble esteemed sports professionals to convene on the importance of emergency preparedness in sports in order to successfully address the physical and mental well-being of athletes in critical situations.

Health and human performance involve taking a holistic view of various mental, physical, and emotional variables that affect overall military success. The objective is to understand obstacles faced by Service members and create tools to tackle these issues on multiple fronts. Government funding centers around innovative programs initiatives that drive support for the Warfighter both on and off the battlefield for sustainable performance. This year’s event is geared towards exploring innovative studies examining human performance in space, wearable sensors that monitor human molecular signatures, accelerating training to prepare Warfighters and machines coexisting on the battlefield and the importance of nutrition on performance.
