1 check · 4/9/2026

The source text is a 'Who we are' page from Berkeley Existential Risk Initiative (BERI) that lists current core team members and embedded staff, as well as board members. Andrew Critch is not mentioned in any capacity in this excerpt. While the source confirms BERI exists and discusses its structure, it does not address whether Andrew Critch is or was a founder and president. This could be because: (1) the source is outdated and Critch held the role previously, (2) Critch's role is not covered in this particular excerpt, or (3) the claim is inaccurate. Without information about Critch in the source, the claim cannot be verified or contradicted based on this text alone.
