Title: International Chemical Threat Reduction (ICTR) at Sandia National Laboratories
Abstract:
ICTR enhances United States and international security by reducing chemical threats worldwide. It collaborates with partner governments, national
and international chemical organizations, universities, and chemical professionals to protect against the accidental or intentional misuse of chemicals. Working cooperatively, ICTR raises awareness of chemical safety and security, builds capacity for sustainable
improvements in global chemical risk management, and counters the threats posed by dual-use chemicals.
3:50: Concluding Remarks
