Risk analysis is broadly defined to include risk assessment, risk characterization, risk communication, risk management, and policy relating to risk. Our interests include risks to human health and the environment, both built and natural. We consider threats from physical, chemical, and biological agents and from a variety of human activities as well as natural events. We analyze risks of concern to individuals, to public and private sector organizations, and to society at various geographic scales. Our membership is multidisciplinary and international.

The Strategic Rail Authority formally came into being on 1 February 2001, following the passage of the Transport Act 2000. On 14 January 2002 it published its first Strategic Plan, setting out the strategic priorities for Britain's railway over the next ten years. The SRA is responsible for delivering the Plan, within the resources available, and in particular the Government's key targets of 50% growth in passenger kilometres, 80% growth in freight moved, a reduction in London area overcrowding, and an improvement in punctuality and reliability.
