BioTracker: An INTERPOL Solution to Assess and Tackle Biological Threats and Incidents

This project supports INTERPOL to better aid its member countries in assessing and responding to biological threats by providing strategic and operational criminal intelligence. Project activities include: (1) developing an internal biological incident analytical platform called “BioTracker” to identify and assess biological threats; (2) engaging member countries; and (3) developing an e-learning module for BioTracker.

The expected outcomes of this project include: (1) increased data-sharing and collaboration amongst INTERPOL member countries and the global security and law enforcement community in relation to biological threats and incidents; and (2) improved performance of the global law enforcement community to conduct biological incident threat assessments and investigations.
