The project will address the detection of infections caused by category A biological agents which pose a risk to national security. The project will contribute to Research priority 4 'Safeguarding Australia from invasive diseases and securing our critical infrastructure' by developing detection and alerting techniques for potential catastrophic threats. The Australian community will benefit from more efficient detection and management of potential biothreats to health and infrastructure. The application of the model to other industry sectors will enable better strategic planning and implementation of biosecurity initiatives. The potential national cost-benefit is impressive given limitations of currently used surveillance tools.

该项目将检测对国家安全构成威胁的A类生物剂造成的感染。该项目将通过开发潜在灾难性威胁的检测和警报技术，为研究重点4“保护澳大利亚免受入侵性疾病的侵害并保护我们的关键基础设施”做出贡献。澳大利亚社区将受益于更有效地发现和管理对健康和基础设施的潜在生物威胁。将这一模式应用于其他工业部门将有助于更好地进行战略规划和实施生物安保举措。鉴于目前使用的监测工具的局限性，潜在的国家成本效益令人印象深刻。
