All researchers are invited to respond with solutions to the RFI; membership in the consortium is not required. Submission information can be found on the Medical CBRN Defense Consortium website here.
Given the urgency to find solutions quickly, researchers are requested to respond as soon as possible. The submitted solutions will be considered for federally-funded research and development projects.
