NSRI has extensive expertise in the detection and identification of chemical and biological agents; furthermore, NSRI/NU is internationally known for its focus on developing clinical methodologies to detect exposure to bioagents and nerve-agents. The objectives of NSRI’s research in this areas are to develop methods and tools that can detect both known and unknown threats that are accurate, field-deployable, provide rapid results, detect bioactive levels, and require minimal training to use. Our nation’s ability to detect and identify the deliberate use or natural emergence of pathogens depends on our technological capabilities. NSRI is actively pursuing the development of tools and methods to advance and integrate technologies enabling Read more
