Basic research plays a significant role in developing technologies and capabilities to deter, prevent, and prevail against chemical and biological threats for the Joint Force, our nation, and our allies. Investments in basic research by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency’s (DTRA) Chemical and Biological Technologies Department in its role as the Joint Science and Technology Office (JSTO) for Chemical and Biological (CB) Defense, an integral component of the Chemical and Biological Defense Program, include developing a highly skilled workforce and infrastructure that enable further research and scientific discoveries. Over the past decade, DTRA JSTO’s basic research has led to the discovery of new and often transformative technologies that benefit warfighters.
