If you know about the history of the Internet, you know that — while Al Gore might be most famous for supposedly inventing it — it is the Department of Defense that can probably lay claim in earnest.

And today the current form of that organization, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), is launching an office that will focus on biological technology — making synthetic tissues, quickly developing vaccines and connecting the brains of wounded soldiers to new prosthesis.
