    Open Philanthropy recommended a grant of $1,860,000 to the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security to support the implementation of a Masters and PhD program. The program will focus on major biological and health security risks. This funding will support four PhD students for four years each and four masters students for one year each, as well as faculty time for advising students and a junior administrator.

    This follows our September 2019 support and falls within our focus area of biosecurity and pandemic preparedness.
