Will this study address biological/chemical threats? Thank you.
Thank you for your question Katheryn. No, the study will not explore chemical and/or biological weapon (CBW) threats. That reality is a product of the funder’s needs and the resources allocated. However, I do think that some of its general finding could be applied to CBW. The earlier study that was done–the one that identified the top radiolgical/nuclear (RN) non-state threats and the detailed profiles of, for example, the Pakistani Taliban–could, in the future, be used as a template for a similar CBW study as well.
