Biosecurity And Biodefense

In addition to the risks and opportunities resulting from the democratization of biosciences tools and knowledge, the health of humans is intimately linked to the increasing interconnectedness of the global community and closely linked to the health of animals and our shared environment.

Through our range of services and capabilities, we incorporate the One Health approach with the goal of effectively managing risks posed by biological threats.

Our capabilities include developing, integrating, and deploying tools for data collection, analysis, and visualization. These provide for early warning, diagnosis/detection, situational awareness, and decision support. Our health and bioscience experts design and build containment labs domestically and internationally, including rapid, high-quality, sustainable modular design and assembly.

We Offer Services Covering The Full Spectrum Of Biosecurity And Biodefense, Including The Following:

Risk assessments to identify potential biosecurity threats and vulnerabilities
Ongoing surveillance and monitoring of potential biosecurity threats
Laboratory support for the detection, identification, and characterization of pathogens and other organisms of concern
Incident response and management in the event of a biosecurity incident
Training and education on biosecurity and biodefense best practices, as well as guidance on biosecurity incident response
Technical expertise on biosecurity and biodefense issues
Support with law and regulation compliance
Continuous monitoring of biosecurity and biodefense systems performance, gathering user feedback, and making improvements

Health IT/Analytics

Our experts have developed and deployed tools for data collection, analysis, modeling and simulation, and visualization. These tools support early warning, diagnosis/detection, situational awareness, and decision support for public health and medical emergencies and events. We leverage artificial intelligence (AI), software products, high-performance computing (HPC), machine learning (ML), virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and other capabilities to meet customer needs.

We offer plug-and-play platforms that provide comprehensive health surveillance, biometric-based clinical trial enrollment, and compliance monitoring programs. Additionally, our experts integrate disparate technologies and services into secure, cloud-based platforms, providing custom digital solutions for customers.

Our suite of products includes the Javelin Line of Mobile Biometric Collection Kits, a revolutionary, next-generation approach to biometrics. The product line combines the world’s leading smartphone devices with technology’s most proven and advanced multimodal biometrics and forensics capabilities. The mobile biometric collection kits provide fingerprint, iris, and face biometric capabilities for applications from health and humanitarian aid to military and law enforcement.

Our staffing solutions meet the research needs of military and civilian organizations, laboratories, and medical facilities. Our subject matter expertise includes molecular biology, immunology, serology, bacteriology, neuroscience, laboratory science/management, field collection, field lab detection, outbreak response, production of reagents, and assay development. We stand ready to partner with customers through stages of the research maturation process, including work in the laboratory, prototyping, fabrication, and preclinical and clinical research, the latter of which is supported by our AIRMED DetectWise™ product.

Explore AIRMED DetectWise®

DetectWise® is a plug-and-play platform, allowing for seamless integration of our AIRMED (Automated Identification and Registration of Enrollment Data) solution. This system enables biometric registration and identification of clinical study subjects through fingerprint and iris recognition, which is matched during follow-up visits. Designed for use in austere and remote locations, AIRMED synchronizes collected information between mobile field tablets and operates offline when taken to remote locations outside the range of network communications.
