Voices from DARPAAuthor: DARPA
DARPAs podcast series, "Voices from DARPA," offers a revealing and informative window on the minds of the Agency's program managers. In each episode, a program manager from one of DARPAs six technical officesBiological Technologies, Defense Sciences, Information Innovation, Microsystems Technology, Strategic Technology, and Tactical Technologywill discuss in informal and personal terms why they are at DARPA and what they are up to. The goal of "Voices from DARPA" is to share with listeners some of the institutional know-how, vision, process, and history that together make the secret sauce DARPA has been adding to the Nations innovation ecosystem for nearly 60 years. On another level, we at DARPA just wanted to share the pleasure we all have every dayin the elevator, in the halls, in our meeting roomsas we learn from each other and swap ideas and strive to change whats possible.

The Idea Pollinators: DARPA Service Chiefs Fellows - Episode 88
Thursday, 31 July, 2025
The Service Chiefs Fellows connect their operational insights with potential DARPA breakthroughs.We explore DARPA’s Service Chiefs Fellowship Program (SCFP), a 12-week immersive experience that brings together participants from various backgrounds across the Department of Defense (DOD) and other U.S. agencies. Its dual core purposes are to educate future leaders from military services and other agencies, helping them "infuse some of the DARPA magic into their home base," and to inform DARPA program managers and performers, many of whom lack military or government backgrounds, about the mission and the needs of current warfighters. This blending of ideas fosters new connections and can even lead participants to return to the agency, as exemplified by Rob McHenry, DARPA's current Deputy Director and the agency’s first Service Chiefs Fellow.As part of DARPA’s broader strategy to engage the U.S. military and other U.S. government partners, the SCFP helps ensure vital ideas take root and flourish where they are most needed.Service Chiefs Fellowship Program webpageBiological Technologies Office (BTO)Information Innovation Office (I2O)Mission-Integrated Network Control (MINC)Dr. Michael Feasel (BTO program manager)Commercial Strategy Office
