Cybersecurity Implications of the Convergence between AI and Biotechnology
The convergence of AI and biotechnology is unlocking life-saving medical innovations.

We asked Eleonore Pauwels, a senior fellow with the Global Center on Cooperative Security, to analyze these threats and possible solutions to cyber-protect the bioeconomy. She warns, "This isn’t science fiction—it’s unfolding now."
