To determine how commonly trace exposures trigger unanticipated
biological, impacts, Calabrese's team has analyzed databases of
biological responses to potentially toxic chemicals, each throughout a broad range of doses.
In the event of a chemical or
biological incident, sensors would alert the port, both outdoors and indoors.
To facilitate progress in environmental genomics, we need to train young investigators in the discipline and support scientific programs that focus on
biological and clinical problems that can most directly be solved by employing these novel conceptual and methodological approaches.
Schneider's timely and engaging book will help all levels of the Air Force understand
biological warfare and the potential threats it poses.
In
biological terms, as humans, we are constantly experiencing a certain degree of stress.

Despite this history,
biological agents have not been instruments of choice for terrorism as explosives and guns account for more than 99% of all weapons used by terrorists (Global Center for Traumatology, 2003).

Instead, the administration focused public attention on the potential threat posed by Iraqi weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) -- nuclear, radiological, chemical, or

To ensure that terrorist groups and their state sponsors are never able to gain access to chemical,
biological, or nuclear weapons, or the means to deliver them via missile, the United States is employing a variety of methods to combat the spread of weapons of mass destruction, including multilateral agreements, diplomacy, arms control, threat reduction assistance, export control and other means where necessary.
Goldstein concludes that
biological differences, often asserted by those who aim to keep women from combat, are in fact relatively minor.
