We live in a world where chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear (CBRN) threats come not only from weapons of mass destruction, but also potentially from smaller devices or natural disasters, such as occurred in Japan last year when the Fukushima nuclear plant was damaged in an earthquake. Ongoing work to counter such threats focuses on research and development of new technology, as well as the equally important processes for coordinating military and civilian responses.
