Local Response & Emerging Tech to Aid Recovery in CBRN Affected Areas


12th Joint Civil & DoD CBRN Symposium to feature two panel discussions this March 13-14 in Washington, D.C.

The Joint Civil and DoD CBRN Symposium will convene senior leaders across DoD, military, federal government, industry, and academia to explore the continued efforts to advance defense, readiness, and response to current and emerging CBRN threats. Over the course of two days, this Symposium will host two panel discussions.

Day One:
Local Response to CBRN Incident in Major U.S. City Ensuring state and local law enforcement and first responders have the equipment, training, and information they need to protect their communities is necessary to effectively manage the potential impact. Protecting public transportation, ensuring robust information sharing between local, state, & federal entities, and prioritizing training and education are essential for effective CBRN incident response, defense, and mitigation.

Day Two: Utilizing Emerging Tech to Aid Response & Recovery in a CBRN Affected Dense Urban Environment CBRN events can be devastating to highly complex, densely populated urban environments. To address present and future threats, this panel will highlight the challenges of operating in an urban environment and the implementation of innovative tech such as AI, ML, unmanned/autonomous platforms, and microsensors that can strengthen detection for CBRN releases.
