Christopher Stubbs, a Harvard professor who was Dean of Science from 2018 to 2024, helped discover the accelerating expansion of the universe in 1998. A member of the JASON group, he becomes the Trust's first physicist, alongside Neil Buddy Shah, Richard Fontaine and Ben Bernanke. Anthropic also published its first Public Benefit Report this week. Trustees are independent of the company's management and investors.
