3 CBRNe Conference Programme Updates to the programme can be viewed at Call for papers Last year s Call for Papers saw us receive over a 110 different individuals respond, some with more than one paper.we now have our Call for Papers for CBRNe Convergence 2015, papers can be considered for one or all categories. Speaking slots will be 20 minutes and if accepted include a poster.a speaking slot also means the paper has been accepted for publication within CBRNe World. Assessment & Topics: This is an open call so any paper justifiably relevant to CBRNE or hazmat will be considered.the closing date for submissions 28th August Financial Support: Speakers will receive free entry and accommodation for the duration of the conference and workshops. Poster submissions will receive a 20% discount off government delegate rates.the abstract should be words long and include the following: Background (purpose/objective/ rationale of the research, relationship to other areas if any); Methods; Preliminary results; Preliminary conclusion; Potential impact to mission/warfighter (if known). Submissions will be assessed by a panel drawn from scientists and first responders. Equal weighting will be given to scientific merit and benefit to practitioners.the panel includes leading scientists and first responders, so all the papers will be judged to be both practical and understandable.the panel includes Dr John Hassard (Imperial), Professor Malcolm Sperrin (Royal Berks), Dr Matthew Healy (Cranfield), Chief Bob Ingram (FDNY), Dr Efraim Laor (UNDAC), Chris Hawley (IAFC), Maarten Nieuwenhuizen (TNO) amongst other eminent professionals.this is an open call so any paper justifiably relevant to CBRNE or hazmat will be considered. For more information please contact Andrew Johnston via andrew.johnston@cbrneworld.com October 27. Pre-Conference Workshop: CBRN Forensics For many CBRN responders forensics begins and ends with sampling, identification, biological, chemical and radiological agents (Sibcra) mission, but true forensics is much larger than that. How do we ensure that we are able to not only manage the sample, but also contaminated traditional traces: hair, DNA and blood etc.what skills do we need from a variety of first responders, from traditional first responders through to hazmat and EMT, in a contaminated environment? What equipment do they need, and does it need to be designed, or is there equipment already in service that can be used in a different way? This? day workshop will bring together experts that have dealt with real CBRN crime scenes and those that are developing capability to plot a way forward in this complicated environment. Experts from the Europe and the US will offer practical examples of previous cases and provide a clearer understanding of what each force needs to develop. More information is available on
