Safeguarding Lives Against Battlefield Threats

Geneva is a leader in mitigating modern battlefield threats through groundbreaking research on chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive (CBRNE) hazards. Our efforts focus on developing life-saving medical countermeasures, diagnostics, and proactive solutions to safeguard the warfighter and maintain global operational readiness.

CBRNE threats pose unique and evolving risks, making research in this field critical to addressing key challenges in prevention, detection, mitigation, and response. This research directly impacts the health, safety, and operational readiness of active-duty military, while also enhancing national security and public safety. By addressing these risks, Geneva ensures proactive and impactful solutions that strengthen military readiness and survivorship outcomes.

• • Compared with civilians, deployed Service Members are 2X as likely to suffer a burn injury.
  • Since 1990, more than 3.7 million U.S. Service Members deployed to combat environments with airborne hazards, such as burn pit emissions, oil well fire smoke, vehicle exhaust, and sand.
