CHEMICAL/BIOLOGICAL DEFENSE (BASIC RESEARCH)
Abstract
This program element funds the Joint Service basic research program for Chemical, Biological, and Radiological (CBR) defense. The objective of the basic research program is to advance fundamental knowledge and understanding of the sciences with an emphasis in exploring new and innovative research for combating or countering chemical, biological and radiological weapons. Moreover, basic research supports a Joint Force concept of a lethal, integrated, supportable, highly mobile force with enhanced capability by the individual service member. Specifically, the program promotes theoretical and experimental research and studies in the physical, life and information sciences. A portion of this program element directly supports basic research efforts for the transformational medical technologies program. The work in this program element is consistent with the Chemical Biological Defense Program Research, Development and Acquisition (RDA) Plan. Basic research technological breakthroughs support applied research (PE 0602384BP) activities. Basic research activities described in this budget justification leverage existing research programs and activities within the DoD and other government agencies and promotes cross-pollination between government and academia, as well as sponsors world class scientists. The projects in this PE are placed in BA1, because they are basic research efforts directed towards non-specific or non-unique military applications. The project names within this BA are changing in FY12 to reflect the research areas of Information Science (IS1), Life Science (LF1), and Physical Science (PS1), but retained is TB1, Transformational Medical Technologies. The projects of CB1, TC1, TR1, will no longer be used after FY11.
