All-Hazards Preparedness and Response & CBRN Defense
The All-Hazards Preparedness and Response & CBRN Defense practice area aims to prevent, prepare, detect, defeat, and respond to CBRN incidents; intentional, accidental, and natural outbreaks of infectious disease; and natural disasters.
Gryphon Scientific’s All-Hazards Preparedness work focuses on characterization and mitigation of all-hazard risks to human and animal populations including health effects associated with weapons of mass destruction (WMDs), emerging infectious disease, and antimicrobial resistant pathogens. Additionally, this practice area includes projects which focus on critical infrastructure protection.
CBRN DEFENSE
Gryphon Scientific provides risk and threat assessments to inform the design of CBRN defensive systems and the development of novel countermeasures for CBRN agents. Our work has materially influenced the largest investments in CBRN security. To build local capacity for incident response, Gryphon Scientific also designs and delivers training and exercises for CBRN preparedness.

EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS, RESPONSE, AND RECOVERY
Gryphon Scientific assists emergency management authorities in both public and private sectors in coping with the daunting challenges posed by naturally occurring and man-made disasters. We develop tools and best practices to help public health, emergency management authorities, and private organizations create efficient disaster preparedness, response, and recovery plans to mitigate the consequences of disasters, deliver effective relief services, and strengthen community resilience.

EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASES AND ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANT AGENTS
Gryphon Scientific recognizes that accurate surveillance and rapid response capabilities are essential to combat emerging diseases and the threat of antimicrobial resistant agents. Through assessing risk, modeling the spread of infectious disease, and assessing the effectiveness of countermeasures, we help policymakers develop effective prevention, preparedness, and response strategies for countering emerging biological threats.
