CHEMICAL/BIOLOGICAL DEFENSE - LIFE SCIENCES (BASIC RESEARCH)

Abstract

This project (LF1) focuses on fundamental efforts to understand living systems' responses to biological or chemical agents, to support detection, protection, diagnostics, and medical treatment. Research focuses on understanding factors which influence the behavior of chemicals, toxins, and pathogens in relation to the host or target. Understanding of host/agent interactions can drive exploration of novel approaches to detect, diagnose or protect against threats. Research also focuses on medical countermeasures for improved efficacy against a wide array of current and future threat agents.
