Centre for Science and Security Studies

The Centre for Science and Security Studies is part of the War Studies Group in the policy strand. According to their website,

"Members of the Centre conduct scholarly and policy-relevant research on weapons proliferation, non-proliferation, verification and disarmament, space security and mass effect terrorism including the CBRN (chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear) dimension. A significant emphasis is also placed on engaging on these issues with security practitioners in governments and international organisations, and the wider dissemination of research findings through engagement with the media.
The Centre organises conferences and runs a regular seminar series where internal and external speakers address issues related to science and security."[2]
