Michael McLaren is a Senior Research Scientist in the Detection division at SecureBio, a biosecurity nonprofit based in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He is a quantitative biologist with expertise in evolutionary theory, population dynamics, and microbiome measurement methods. He earned a Ph.D. in Biology from Stanford University in 2016 under Marcus W. Feldman, and a B.A. in Mathematics and Logic, Information, and Computation from the University of Pennsylvania in 2009. From 2017 to 2022, he was a postdoctoral researcher with Ben Callahan at NC State University, focusing on quantitative methods for microbiome research. In early 2022, he joined Kevin Esvelt's Sculpting Evolution group at MIT as the scientific lead for the Nucleic Acid Observatory (NAO), a project developing metagenomics-based monitoring systems to detect novel pathogens and provide reliable early warning for catastrophic pandemics. The NAO project subsequently moved to SecureBio, where McLaren continues to lead quantitative research on pandemic detection. He has received funding from the Long-Term Future Fund to develop an early-warning system for future biological risks.

Brian C. Porter is a philosopher and independent AI alignment researcher based in Pittsburgh, PA. He completed his PhD in Philosophy at the CUNY Graduate Center in February 2023, where he wrote his dissertation "Three Essays on Substructural Approaches to Semantic Paradoxes" under the supervision of Graham Priest. He subsequently held a Postdoctoral Research Associate position in the Department of History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Pittsburgh, working on the Geography of Philosophy Project. His academic research focused on logic, semantic paradoxes, and experimental semantics, particularly the methodology of testing theories of reference for kind terms. He received a Long-Term Future Fund grant to support one year of independent research and upskilling to transition from academic philosophy to AI alignment research, motivated by his view that recent developments in AI make it critical to ensure AI systems are safe, ethical, and aligned with human goals. He also co-authored a 2024 paper in Scientific Reports examining whether AI-generated poetry is distinguishable from human-authored poetry.

Kristaps Zilgalvis is a Latvian biosecurity-focused student at UC San Diego, where he is pursuing a degree in Biological Sciences. He received a $250,000 grant from the Long-Term Future Fund (December 2021 round) to cover four years of tuition, housing, and dining at UCSD, with the stated goal of reducing biological existential risk. Prior to the grant, he was based in Belgium and had worked with a long-term-future-focused biosecurity researcher who provided a positive reference. During his undergraduate studies, he served as a research intern at the Salk Institute in La Jolla, where he was introduced to research on the neurobiological correlates of consciousness. He has since developed a broader intellectual interest in consciousness science, AI consciousness, and effective altruism-adjacent topics, writing on these subjects on Substack and LessWrong. He is also co-founder and COO of Current, a news platform, and has an affiliation with Nina Capital.
