The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have resulted in the most severe survivable war injuries ever seen in prolonged conflict. The Armed Forces Institute of Regenerative Medicine (AFIRM) was conceived as a way to deliver solutions to the existing gaps in military trauma care. The AFIRM is a collaborative effort between the Department of Defense, academia and private industry to accelerate the development of critically needed technology for the treatment of severely wounded warriors, and to restore to meaningful form and function those who have followed orders into harm's way.
伊拉克和阿富汗战争导致了在长期冲突中出现的最严重的可存活战争伤害。武装部队再生医学研究所（AFIRM）的构想是为了提供解决现有军事创伤护理差距的方法。AFIRM 是国防部、学术界和私营企业之间的合作努力，旨在加速开发急需的技术，以治疗重伤员，并使那些奉命前往危险地区的人恢复有意义的形态和功能。
