He has served on committees of the Defense Science Board, the National Academies of Sciences, and the Institute of Medicine, and in an advisory capacity to NIH, the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority, the Department of Homeland Security, and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.

He is Editor-in-Chief of the journal Health Security, which he helped establish in 2003. He was a principal editor of the JAMA book Bioterrorism: Guidelines for Medical and Public Health Management.
