• Description:
  An accurate, timely laboratory diagnosis is one of the foundations of any public health response. CDC’s Laboratory Response Network for Biological Threats (LRN-B) enables the United States to detect biological threats and emerging infectious diseases quickly and accurately—anywhere in the United States..
  
  CDC partners with LRN member laboratories to develop and validate new laboratory tests, train scientists who perform the tests, and provide quality-controlled laboratory test kits to ensure the LRN-B is ready to protect the U.S. from biological threats. CDC Preparedness resources support LRN activities at CDC and the Public Health Emergency Preparedness Cooperative Agreement provides support to state and local LRN member laboratories.
