chemical and biological defense research

Chemical and biological defense research focuses on developing methods to detect, protect against, and respond to harmful agents such as toxins and pathogens. This includes creating detection systems for early warning, protective gear like masks and suits, and medical countermeasures like vaccines and treatments. The aim is to ensure safety for military personnel and civilians by understanding how these dangerous agents work, how to neutralize them, and how to respond effectively in emergencies. This research enhances preparedness and resilience against potential chemical or biological threats.
