摘要

In 2002, U.S. intelligence officials claimed that the Iraqi government owned a number of mobile labs capable of producing biological weapons. After U.S.-led forces invaded Iraq, the labs were revealed to be production facilities for hydrogen used to fill weather balloons. In 2005, a government commission said the error was due to a lack of scientific expertise within the U.S. intelligence community. Now intelligence officials are addressing that problem by opening up their biological research program—most of which is classified—to external peer review. A panel of life scientists from universities, companies, and nongovernmental organizations has begun to assess the merit of projects proposed and conducted by researchers at the 16 agencies under the aegis of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI), as well as grant applications submitted to the agencies. The Biological Sciences Expert Group (BSEG), with 24 core members and an extended network of 40 others, has already met five times this year at DNI's National Counterproliferation Center in McLean, Virginia. In addition to helping screen and design projects to combat bioterrorism, the group will analyze research findings, review the scientific validity of intelligence assessments, and occasionally conduct its own studies.
