General Dynamics Information Technology, Inc. received a $1,247,189 project grant award from the Defense Health Agency under the Military Medical Research and Development program (CFDA 12.420), effective August 1, 2025, through October 31, 2028. The award funds the TIME (Treatment Interventions for the Mental Health Needs of Warfighters with Traumatic Brain Injury) study, a four-year research initiative evaluating remotely supervised transcranial direct current stimulation combined with cognitive training as a treatment intervention to improve complex attention in active-duty service members and veterans with mild traumatic brain injury.

The project delivers clinical research and medical program management services supporting the Defense Health Agency's mission to advance military health outcomes through innovative treatment interventions. The award represents the awardee's expansion beyond traditional information technology service delivery into clinical and medical research program management, demonstrating capabilities in conducting hypothesis-driven biomedical research addressing critical military health priorities. Work is performed at the awardee's Falls Church, Virginia location.
