Biosurveillance
Author: Jerald E. Levine
Publisher: DIANE Publishing
ISBN: 1437927165
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 38
Book Description
Recently, there has been an increased focus on developing the ability to provide early detection of and situational awareness during a disease outbreak. The Recommendations of the 9/11 Commission Act sought to enhance this capability, in part, by creating the National Biosurveillance Integration Center (NBIC). NBIC is to help provide early detection and situational awareness by integrating information and supporting an interagency biosurveillance community. The Act mandated reports on the state of biosurveillance and resource use in federal, state, local, and tribal governments. This report focuses on the actions taken by NBIC to: (1) acquire resources to accomplish its mission; and (2) effectively collaborate with its federal partners. Illustrations.

New Frontiers in Astrobiology
Author: Rebecca Thombre
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0323859275
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
New Frontiers in Astrobiology presents a simple and concise overview of the emerging field of astrobiology. Astrobiology studies the evolution, origin, and future of life on Earth and beyond. This book provides a brief overview of the current research and future status of this fascinating field. The book covers a wide range of topics from the history of astrobiology, the big bang, prebiotic chemistry, theories of the origin of life, extreme environments on Earth, and the quest for intelligent life in space. Currently, there is a critical gap in knowledge related to the future scope of astrobiology and its applications in science and society. The hallmark of the book is that it takes critical perspectives to analyze the new frontiers in astrobiology post Mars 2020/ExoMars missions that encompass the latestdevelopments in the detection of biosignatures and habitability beyond our Solar System (exomoons, exoplanets). The book will be a valuable resource for students, researchers, and scientists who seek greater insights into understanding the current status and future of astrobiology. - Explores the background and historical developments in astrobiology - Provides concise cutting-edge reviews on fundamental questions on origin and distribution of life on Earth, habitability beyond Earth, and future of life on Earth - Integrates contemporary and critical views in new frontiers in astrobiology
