5) Emerging Threats

Abstract

Push beyond the boundaries of the traditional threat list in the field of diagnostics to better prepare for surprise. Development of diagnostic systems that leverage novel approaches to characterize pathogen or host response and can identify the classification of threat (e.g., bacterial vs viral) from an unknown sample. Invest in diagnostic tests that enable the delivery of actionable information, such as administering the appropriate medical countermeasure (e.g. antibiotic, antiviral, vaccine), by a medic or primary care provider greatly improves turnaround time for soldier wellness and return to duty.
