Abstract:

Welcome to the second edition of the Joint Science and Technology Office JSTO Science and Technology Update and the first since my arrival last fall as the new JSTO director. I want to first thank you for taking the time to read this issue, and I pledge to you that this is just one of the many ways we intend to communicate in the future with our myriad stakeholders around the world. This winters issue is dedicated to articles and coverage of the 2010 Chemical and Biological Defense Science and Technology Conference that JSTO hosted in Orlando last November. With more than 1,500 attendees from industry, government, and academia, the conference was a tremendous opportunity to continue to network and collaborate with the goal of providing our warfighters the protection they need to survive and thrive on todays battlefields. It also brought together senior thought leaders across government, industry, and academia, creating a vibrant community focused on discussion and debate on key issues we face in protecting the nation from biological and chemical threats.
