And those power lines and then to discover 22 elements that would be much smaller as the pandemic in the us it is apparent the laboratories and programs help to respond to the virus its not well known that research is not new to the lab those that neutralize chemical and biological agents this was used to clean up the Congressional Office buildings in 2001 with the threat of anthrax. And then to develop and with those radioisotopes with those Imaging Technology doe labs house and operate these facilities to establish by the department in 1997 as part of the human genome project and then to characterize those organisms of bioenergy and biogeochemistry also the gcompetition analysis so leveraging these capabilities have a ton of measures against the coronavirus to affect transmission this is why it possesses with the great challenges that expertise and their Research Tools responding to the pandemic and what future biological System Research with the most pressing issue i look forward to
