What is biosurveillance?

Biosurveillance is the collection, analysis, and interpretation of data to help monitor pathogens in plants, animals, humans, food, and the environment.

In the interest of national security, comprehensive biosurveillance can guide mitigation strategies, intervention strategies, and public health decisions.

The Biosurveillance Gateway serves as a centralized portal for resources and research developed at Los Alamos National Laboratory, as well as related news and information.
