[Biosecurity & Pandemic Preparedness] Grant investigator: Andrew Snyder-Beattie This page was reviewed but not written by the grant investigator. Bipartisan Commission on Biodefense staff also reviewed this page prior to publication. Open Philanthropy recommended two grants totaling $2,970,000 to the Bipartisan Commission on Biodefense for general support. The Bipartisan Commission on Biodefense was previously known as the Blue Ribbon Study Panel on Biodefense. The Bipartisan Commission on Biodefense advocates for improvements to U.S. biodefense policy through a variety of activities, including hosting public meetings, publishing reports, and conducting outreach to those in the U.S. government. This follows our January 2018 support to the Blue Ribbon Study Panel on Biodefense and falls within our focus area of biosecurity and pandemic preparedness. The grant amount was updated in October 2020.
