    A person in U.S. Navy digital camouflage uniform and blue nitrile gloves is closely examining or working with a small device or specimen on a black surface, while a civilian woman in a tan blazer and red top observes. Both individuals are wearing face masks. The setting appears to be a laboratory or technical workspace with various equipment visible in the background.

    U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) Research Biologist Sophie Colston, Ph.D. and Lt. Cmdr. Chaselynn Watters of the Biological Defense Research Directorate (BDRD) Mobile laboratory team operate the sequencer during a training event at BDRD, Jan. 21, 2022. BDRD was the primary transition partner for the Far-Forward Advanced Sequencing Technology (F-FAST). NRL trained BDRD personnel who then conducted advanced testing in the field. The effort brings sophisticated laboratory capability into austere environments, giving forward-deployed units the ability to detect and identify harmful pathogens in less than 30 minutes. In addition, F-FAST also developed workflows for laboratory-trained personnel like the BDRD mobile team. (U.S. Navy photo)

    A person in U.S. Navy digital camouflage uniform and blue nitrile gloves is closely examining or working with a small device or specimen on a black surface, while a civilian woman in a tan blazer and red top observes. Both individuals are wearing face masks. The setting appears to be a laboratory or technical workspace with various equipment visible in the background.
    A person in military-style cold weather gear is kneeling in deep snow, working with an open hard-shell equipment case. The setting appears to be a snowy forested area, likely in a subarctic or arctic region based on the terrain and vegetation. A gas mask and a pair of heavy gloves are visible nearby on the snow.
    Two silhouetted figures are walking through a dark, fog-filled tunnel toward a bright light source in the background. The environment appears to be an underground passage or mine shaft, heavily obscured by dust or smoke. The backlit conditions create dramatic silhouettes, making fine details of the figures difficult to discern.
    A person wearing blue nitrile gloves and a tan/olive shirt is performing laboratory work at a portable field workstation, using a micropipette to load samples into what appears to be a portable PCR or diagnostic device. The setting appears to be a temporary field laboratory environment, indicated by the white tent/tarp backdrop and orange flexible ducting. Multiple portable diagnostic instruments with touchscreen displays are visible on the work surface.
    A person is using a pipette or syringe to introduce a liquid sample into a portable sequencing device, likely an Oxford Nanopore MinION or similar field-deployable DNA/RNA sequencer. The setting appears to be a training or demonstration environment, evidenced by printed instruction sheets visible in the foreground. A person in military camouflage uniform is visible in the background, suggesting a military or defense-related application context.
    A U.S. Navy service member in digital camouflage (NWU Type III) uniform is working at a laboratory bench wearing latex gloves. The workspace contains various laboratory equipment and supplies arranged on a blue absorbent pad, suggesting a field or temporary medical/diagnostic laboratory setup. A red biohazard bag is visible in the background, indicating biological sample handling procedures.
