Our Mission
We work to understand and reduce global catastrophic risks, especially those from advanced AI and biotechnology, to make progress safe for everyone.
Our Work
We identify and enable talent to reduce global catastrophic risk.
Our 9-week, in-person research fellowship in London pairs fellows with mentors to produce research at the forefront of AI safety, AIxBio, and AI governance.
We’ll announce new programmes as they launch.
