Biodefense Knowledge Center (BKC)

Charles McQueary (at podium), Undersecretary for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate, is presented with a gift representing an enlarged calling card to access the Biodefense Knowledge Center by Wayne Shotts, then acting Director of the Laboratory's Homeland Security Organization, and Biodefense Knowledge Center Director Bill Colston.
Our systems analysis expertise is also contributing to the BioDefense Knowledge Center, a national clearinghouse of information on biological threats. The center, which is housed at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), will be able to provide information on request as well as reachback support in case of an incident.
