ABSTRACT
Operational medicine is the projection of societal (civilian and military), medical, and public health resources into the realms of homeland security medical operations, disaster relief, and humanitarian assistance. The effective management of these assets requires a system with the resilience and exibility to respond to a changing threat landscape, particularly within the connes of an event. An event scenario evolves as a function of actions (and reactions) of response personnel, victims, and bystanders, each acting from different frames of reference that determine situation awareness. This communication presents elements of a neurotechnology approach to formalizing situation awareness for different roles in operational medicine contexts.
