Bioterrorism is terrorism by intentional release or dissemination of biological agents (bacteria, viruses, or toxins); these may be in a naturally-occurring or in a human-modified form. Biological warfare is the use of pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, other disease-causing biological agents, or the toxins produced by them as biological weapons. A biological weapon may be intended to kill, incapacitate, or seriously impair a person, group of people, or even an entire population.
Biological warfare is a military technique that can be used by nation-states or non-national groups.The creation and stockpiling of biological weapons ("offensive biological warfare") was outlawed by the 1972 Biological Weapons Convention (BWC), signed by over 100 countries.Biological warfare has been practiced repeatedly throughout history, the use of biological agents took three major forms:
Deliberate poisoning of food and water with infectious material Use of microorganisms, toxins or animals, living or dead, in a weapon system Use of biologically inoculated fabrics

The two-day course takes part out of the Capital -Prague in small town called Techonin. In this location is located very specific medical facility (have a look on movie). Our colleagues - medical doctors of Czech Army - are going to give few lectures on topic. They are going to give perfect information about bio- terrorism. You are going to have outstanding opportunity to be lectured by top specialist on biological warfare and preventing it. You are going to be presented one of the most sophisticated hospital facility dealing with the topic of your seminar. Because Techonin is geographically located very out site of Prague, there is a matter of maintaining the transportation from Capital there. There are basically two options- public transportation and sharing the private cars (GPS 50.061172,16.610781 ). The best will be to have discussion about, what you prefer.
