DTRA JSTO Threat Area Panel (TAP) Program. Biological threats faced by warfighters have been organized into broad categories and then further broken down into Threat Areas (blue boxes). A matrix of DoD Service Laboratories in each of these categories, with a SME lead, have been identified to execute Threat Agent Science work up to Biosafety Level 4 (BSL-4) in a streamlined fashion. BSL-4 labs study infectious agents and toxins that can cause life-threatening diseases with no available treatment or vaccine and use strict safety protocols and facility designs to protect staff and the community. Examples of microbes studied in BSL-4 labs include Ebola and Marburg viruses. (DTRA JSTO image)
