Threat Awareness
Threat Awareness identifies, assesses and prioritizes chemical and biological risks and threats to enable planning, response, countermeasures and remediation. Significant contributions in the field include robust laboratory studies to characterize biological agents and evaluate mitigation procedures to their release ; “first of its kind” field testing to characterize behavior of large scale releases of toxic industrial chemicals; real-time decision support tools for planning and response and a comprehensive knowledge repository of threat information and 24/7 subject matter expert reachback support.
