Jasper Götting

About

I am currently a Senior Research Scientist at SecureBio. My research focuses on AI evaluations and biosecurity implications in the AI and biotechnology risks team. Previously, I was working on far-UVC air disinfection as a Research Fellow at Convergent Research, and completed my virology PhD at the Hannover Medical School.

Outside of work, you can find me reading, running TTRPGs, hiking, or playing the drums.
