Summary

Pursuant to its mission to "support basic and applied homeland security research to promote revolutionary changes in technologies; advance the development, testing and evaluation, and deployment of critical homeland security technologies; and accelerate the prototyping and deployment of technologies that would address homeland security vulnerabilities," the Chemical and Biological Division (CBD) seeks technologies to prevent and defend against a chemical and biological attack. In addition, the division is charged with pursuing research to improve response and restoration, conduct threat-informed risk assessments and invest in bioforensics research and development. The focus of this BAA is in the area of risk assessments. The goal of this research project is to build new or apply existing risk analysis applications to terrorism risk that are appropriate for modeling the actions of an intelligent, reactive, adaptive adversary in the conduct of an attack against the U.S. employing WMD. Proposals that build on current or previous work are encouraged. The purpose and objectives of this program are very specific in nature. The distinct subject matter of this funding opportunity necessitates a thorough review of the official program guidance referenced at the URL provided in the contact section of this summary.
