As a Policy Fellow at the European Leadership Network (ELN), Alice Saltini is actively involved in a range of projects within the Global Security Program that include an examination between the interplay of AI and nuclear risks. With a keen interest in AI regulation at the intersection with nuclear systems, Alice is dedicated to developing policy solutions in this field, contributing constructively to ongoing discussions.
Believing in the importance of transparency in AI, Alice seeks to understand and address challenges presented by the potential implications of advanced AI models for nuclear command and control systems. Her insights have found a platform in a number of multilateral fora, such as the NPT.
Prior to joining the ELN, Alice interned for the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization in the External Relations, Protocol and International Cooperation Section, and worked as a Research Assistant at the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies. Alice is also a recent cohort of the CTBTO Youth Group’s CTBTO-CENESS Research Fellowship 2022.
She holds a Master’s degree in Russian studies and a Post Graduate Certificate (Pg Cert) in Nonproliferation Studies from the Middlebury Institute of International Studies, benefiting from a full merit-based scholarship during her tenure at the Middlebury Institute.
Combining her academic background with practical experience, Alice hopes to foster informed dialogues about the integration of AI in the nuclear domain
