About

Welcome to the Centre of Excellence for Biosecurity Risk Analysis

CEBRA supports the Australian Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment and the New Zealand Ministry for Primary Industries in protecting Australia and New Zealand's agriculture, natural environments and human health from biosecurity threats. Through targeted research and the development of risk analysis tools, CEBRA assists the department and ministry to implement a risk-based approach to biosecurity regulation across the continuum of pre-border, border, and post-border activities. CEBRA's body of work spans statistics, ecology, mathematics, economics, veterinary science, human medicine and sociology, involving collaborators across government, academia, CSIRO and the private sector.
