Our Mission

The CCP BioThreats Initiative (CCP BTI) is dedicated to understanding and addressing the multifaceted challenges posed by the convergence of biotechnology, neurobiology, artificial intelligence, and human-computer interfaces. The CCP BTI is uniquely positioned to address the intricate potential threats under the jurisdiction of various global actors, with an emphasis on programs associated with the Chinese Communist Party and its affiliated entities, such as the People's Liberation Army, the United Front, and the Ministry of State Security.

Strategic Insights

  • Conducting strategic net assessments across domains.

  • Undertaking specialized investigations.

  • Providing expert guidance and support to both governmental and private sector leaders within the U.S. and its global allies.

  • Elevating public awareness through workshops, briefings, and engagement with congressional stakeholders to support policy decisions countering the CCP.

Biotech Frontiers

Biotechnology and emerging technologies—such as AI, big data, and genomic editing—are transforming the chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) threat environment. While these innovations offer powerful tools for health and security, they also introduce new proliferation risks and dual-use dilemmas. Technologies like biofoundries and additive manufacturing can both enhance resilience and facilitate malign use.
