Abstract

Biomedical research used for defense purposes may also be applied to biological weapons development. To mitigate risk, the US Government has attempted to monitor and regulate biomedical research labs, especially those that study bioterrorism agents/diseases. However, monitoring worldwide biomedical researchers and their work is still an issue. In this chapter, we developed an integrated approach to mapping worldwide bioterrorism research literature. Our objectives are to identify the researchers who have expertise in the bioterrorism agents/diseases research domain, the major institutions and countries where these researchers reside, and the emerging topics and trends in bioterrorism agents/diseases research. By utilizing knowledge mapping techniques, we analyzed the productivity status, collaboration status, and emerging topics in the bioterrorism domain. The analysis results provide insights into the research status of bioterrorism agents/diseases and thus allow a more comprehensive view of bioterrorism researchers and ongoing work.
