Sripaipan This paper presents a future-oriented technology analysis (FTA) project on the control and management of emerging infectious diseases (EID) in the Asia-pacific Economic cooperation region.
Biosecurity and emerging infectious diseases in Asia-pacific Science and Public policy February 2010 42 new diseases such as SARS and bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) with variants such as H5n1;
and emerging infectious diseases in Asia-pacific Science and Public policy February 2010 43 The concept has been extended in the European union's Seventh Framework Program to the possibiliitie at the interface of micro nano systems and the living world.
The result of this‘converging'approach is to be shown in this paper in the context of the crossbounndar Asia-pacific regional setting.
The new challenge in the present study is the roadmapping of converging technologies within the diversity of the Asia-pacific region.

After keynote speeches given by speakers from Rand IBM, Oracle, and the Australian Biosecurity Cooperaativ Research centre, the experts were organised into smaller groups.

Elsewhere the report was disseminated throughout the Asia-pacific region and also to non-APEC members such as the UK who also participated in the project.

Hence, the unique contribution of this paper lies in its dealing with cross-disciplinary technologies (converging technologies) in a cross-boundary regioona setting (Asia-pacific.

The implication of this project is that it has creatte a new network of knowledgeable and concerned scientists and technologists in the field of biosecurity in the Asia-pacific region.
This project was funded by the Asia-pacific Economic Cooperaatio (APEC) and the National science and Technology Developmmen Agency Ministry of Science and Technology, Royal Thai government.
Strong regional alliances are also developing in Latin america and the Asia-pacific region. Whilst such regional actions are dictated frequently by economic interests,
