CHEMICAL BIOLOGICAL DEFENSE (APPLIED RESEARCH)
Abstract
Project CB2 provides physical science applied research to develop future, multi-disciplinary, and multi-functional capabilities in life sciences, physical sciences, environmental sciences, mathematics, cognitive sciences, and engineering. Efforts in this project support the seamless integration of state-of-the-art-technologies into a collection of systems across the spectrum of capabilities required to support chemical and biological defense missions. Capability areas in this project include: - Protection and hazard mitigation focuses on providing technologies that protect from and reduce the impact of chemical/biological threat or hazard to the Warfighter, weapons platforms, and structures. - Detection focuses on developing technologies for remote and point detection and identification of chemical and biological agents. - Decision analysis and management focuses on advanced hazard prediction, operational effects and risk assessment, and systems performance modeling. - Warning and reporting focuses on non-traditional detection methods to provide indications of chemical and biological exposure risk. - Biosurveillance provides methodologies to integrate open source data into advanced warning systems. - Threat agent science is devoted to characterizing threat agents and the hazards they present in terms of agent fate in the environment, toxicology, and pathogenicity, and focuses on the horizontal integration of CB defensive technologies in support of the Joint Services.
