The Council on Strategic Risks is offering the 2026 Mid-Career Biodefense Bootcamp Fellowship, a unique opportunity for mid-career professionals with backgrounds in national security, global health, international relations, or related fields to deepen their expertise in biological threat reduction.
- Participate in a virtual course (equivalent to a condensed college semester) covering historical and modern biosecurity topics.
- Attend a 2.5-day, in-person bootcamp in the US with leading experts, policymakers, and innovators (travel costs covered).
- Gain access to a robust professional network and future CSR events, with ongoing access to course materials.
- Open to applicants with 10+ years of professional or advanced academic experience; prioritization for citizens of NATO member states and NATO’s four official Indo-Pacific partners.
No specific visa requirements are listed, but nationality and geography are considered due to the nature of the fellowship and interactions with government officials.
