CHEMICAL/BIOLOGICAL DEFENSE (BASIC RESEARCH)

Abstract

The projects in this program element (PE) advance fundamental knowledge in life and physical sciences. These are basic research efforts directed at promoting theoretical and experimental research in Life and Physical Sciences. Individual projects include: - Life Sciences (LF1): fundamental efforts to understand living systems' response to biological or chemical agents, to support detection, diagnostics, protection, and medical treatment (e.g. microbiology, biochemistry, pathogenic mechanisms, cell and molecular biology, immunology, nanoscale science, and information science). - Physical Sciences (PS1): fundamental scientific phenomena to support investigation of physical and chemical properties and interactions for enhanced functionalities important to detection, diagnostics, protection, and decontamination (e.g. chemistry, physics, materials science, nanotechnologies, nanoscale science, and environmental science).
