Globalization, biosecurity, and the future of the life sciences

UPMC Center for Biosecurity/Johns Hopkins Center for Civilian Biodefense Strategies http://www.upmc-biosecurity.org/website/center/newsroom/index.html
http://www.cidrap.umn.edu/cidrap/content/bt/bioprep/news/sep2203hopkins.ed.html This group has earned an international reputation for its biodefense work. Faculty from the Center published the definitive papers on public health and medical management of the six major bioweapons-related diseases in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA). They also convened the first two national conferences on bioterrorism for medical and public health professionals and the highly regarded and influential Dark Winter exercise, a fictional scenario depicting a covert smallpox attack in the United States. They founded and edit the only peer-reviewed journal devoted to biodefense. Through their work with congressional and administration leadership, state governments and academic and scientific organizations, the Center’s faculty played a major role in increasing federal funding for bioterrorism from $8 million in 1998 to $4.5 billion in 2003.
