Emerging Technologies x International Security

Welcome.

BIOGRAPHY.

Welcome. Dr. Julie George received her PhD in the Government department at Cornell University, specializing in international security in August 2023. Broadly, her doctoral research examines the proliferation of emerging technologies and their impact on the probability and nature of conflict and cooperation in the international system. This focus has led her to engage a broad selection of scholarship across science and technology studies, history, international organizations, and law. Currently, she is an International Security Program Postdoctoral Fellow at the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at the Harvard Kennedy School. Previously, she was a predoctoral fellow at the Center for International Security and Cooperation (CISAC) and Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence Institute (HAI) at Stanford University (2022-2023). Prior to her PhD studies at Cornell University, she worked at the Atlantic Council and completed a graduate fellowship at the Nonproliferation Education and Research Center (NEREC) housed at KAIST University in South Korea. Her previous work included research on nuclear and cyber security, military expenditures, and trade in East and South Asia. She has a B.A. and M.A. in Political Science from Boston University, where she received the Best Thesis Award and was inducted into Phi Beta Kappa.
