National Security Commission on Emerging Biotechnology (NSCEB)

While the United States is the home of modern biotechnology, our lead in research and development, innovation, and production of the most cutting-edge biotechnology breakthroughs is slipping. China is pulling ahead, and falling behind in this critical sector puts our economic, food, energy, infrastructure, and national security at risk.   In our comprehensive report to Congress, the NSCEB assesses that time is running out to retain and cement our global leadership in biotechnology. We are falling behind fast, and catching back up won’t be an option. This report is not just an assessment of the state of American biotechnology, but an action plan to achieve the greatest heights of discovery and innovation in this sector.   We can maintain our advantage in this critical domain, but only if we act now.   Read the report here: https://lnkd.in/e9WWcW9w

Thank you to Special Competitive Studies Project - SCSP and the 750 people who joined us at the AI+Biotechnology Summit yesterday! This is just the beginning of our work as we chart the future of biotechnology. Now, we begin the work of implementation, starting with the National Biotechnology Initiative Act of 2025, announced Wednesday by NSCEB Congressional Commissioners. https://lnkd.in/esqucyxm

Today, NSCEB Congressional Commissioners introduced the first Commission recommendations in Congress.   https://lnkd.in/esqucyxm The National Biotechnology Initiative Act of 2025 is designed to catalyze a whole-of-government approach to advancing biotechnology for U.S. national security, economic productivity, and competitiveness. “The United States has long been a leader in biotechnology, but we now risk losing our edge to China. In this era of global competition, we need to promote American biotech innovation and manufacturing. Our legislation will provide a long-term strategy to make federal agencies work together — with greater efficiency — to support American biotechnology.” – NSCEB Chair Senator Todd Young

The U.S. is the home of modern biotechnology and has long been the leader in innovation. But China has made biotech a strategic national priority for 20 years. Who really has the upper hand in biotech and why does it matter?    Expert panelists Liza Tobin, Michael Kuiken, and Rush Doshi, moderated by David Lin of Special Competitive Studies Project - SCSP, examine the stakes in this AI+Biotechnology Summit Panel.    Register here: https://lnkd.in/eakPqT48
