Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
First off, I see that things have changed a little bit since I was last here as the critic. I welcome you in your new role, and wish you all the best. I see my friend Mr. Bezan has been promoted, and I wish you all the best in your new role.
Thank you so much for your presentation. I noted that you focused a lot on the blast-induced injuries. We've always had that, but we have a deadly new dimension to it in our time.
You mentioned that you've developed an integrated blast injury research program that delivers operationally relevant medical information, with the intent of deepening DND's and Veterans Affairs' understanding of this type of trauma. Could you expand on that for us and give me a better sense of what that program is and how it works?
