Centre for the Study of Existential Risk
An interdisciplinary research centre within the University of Cambridge dedicated to the study and mitigation of existential and global catastrophic risks
An existential risk is one that threatens the existence of our entire species. The Cambridge Centre for the Study of Existential Risk (CSER)—a joint initiative between a philosopher, a scientist, and a software entrepreneur—was founded on the conviction that these risks require a great deal more scientific investigation than they presently receive.
