LINK – Improved Coordination and Investigation of Deliberate Biological Events

This project aims to improve health-security coordination and collaboration and develop new and more effective tools for prevention, detection and response to deliberate biological incidents. Specifically, this project includes the development of a CBRN Global Database and Knowledge Management system, creation of a smartphone app for the provision of resources and guidance for in-field investigation of deliberate outbreaks, and a comprehensive analysis of ASEAN agencies to assess and strengthen coordination across and within the health and security interface. The SuspectED Smartphone App, which was launched in 2020, allows in-field responders and/or investigators in both the human and animal sectors to identify triggers and indicators of emerging and deliberate biological events.
