The Defense Threat Reduction Agency’s (DTRA) CBEP objectives are to cooperatively assist partner nation governments to prevent the proliferation of nuclear, chemical and biological weapons. CBEP, focusing on the biological agents, provides education and training to enhance clinical, laboratory and epidemiological safety and security with regard to especially dangerous pathogens. CBEP also works to strengthen the partner nation’s detection, diagnostic and reporting systems, as well as fund and conduct academic and scientific research on especially dangerous pathogens.
As part of the CBEP support team, Toeroek provides scientific, technical, and administrative experts for reducing or eliminating the threat from CWMD in partner countries around the world. Our scientists provide technical assessments for clinical capabilities and diagnostics, biomedical research, biosurveillance, and biological infrastructure to emerging and established biological threat reduction programs in Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Cambodia, Thailand, and multiple countries in Africa, resulting in decreased global threats from biological agents.
