Biopower—a nation’s capacity to harness emerging biotechnologies to enhance national and economic security—is a growing if underappreciated force in geopolitics. Accelerating breakthroughs in biotechnologies could unlock potentially transformative applications in defense, energy, health, and manufacturing, bestowing considerable security and economic benefits.

Join the Center for a New American Security (CNAS) on Thursday, February 6, at 12 p.m. ET for a virtual event to highlight the stakes, challenges, and opportunities for securing U.S. biotechnology leadership as we transition to new leadership in the White House and Congress.

The event will feature keynote remarks from Senator Todd Young (R-IN), chair of the National Security Commission on Emerging Biotechnology, followed by an expert panel with Doug Friedman, CEO of BioMADE, Jessica Dymond, vice president of technology at In-Q-Tel, and Vivek Chilukuri, senior fellow and director of the Technology and National Security Program at CNAS. The conversation will be moderated by Alison Snyder, managing editor at Axios.
