Research

We research where exceptional people can have the most impact in AI safety and biosecurity, and publish what we find here. Each project is something an entrepreneur could take on full-time, often as a new organization or company. We only list a project here once our team or one of our expert partner organizations has put at least 100 hours of research into it, and we think it would make a meaningful impact. We prioritize projects that are relevant to a broad distribution of potential threat models and are important, neglected, and tractable. The list itself is not ranked.

If you want to take on a project, our Seed Grants program can fund you. Please contact the team member listed on each project page to get started.

If you are interested in submitting new projects, please fill out this form to start working with us. This list is initially scoped to projects in biosecurity, with AI safety projects coming soon. Both are open for submissions.
