Description
The CWMD ARI Program seeks novel cross-cutting research that will enhance the nation’s capabilities to detect and prevent the illicit entry, transport, assembly, or potential use of unauthorized CBRN materials, devices, or agents within the United States, and otherwise help protect against an attack using such materials, devices, or agents. The CWMD ARI Program aligns with and supports the FY2020-24 DHS Strategic Plan, Goal 1: Counter Terrorism and Homeland Security Threats, and Objective 1.4: Counter Weapons of Mass Destruction and Emerging Threats.ObjectivesThe ARI Program has two primary objectives: 1) Engage with the academic community to advance fundamental knowledge in CBRN sciences applicable to CWMD with emphasis on basic and applied research to solve long-term, high-risk challenges; and 2) Develop human capital for CBRN science and engineering professions. Furthermore, the program works to sustain a long-term commitment to basic research in these fields and coordinates related research efforts across the Federal Government.
