Another group I recommend investigating that is working on x-risk reduction is the Global Catastrophic Risk Institute, which was founded in 2011 and has been ramping up substantially over the last few months. As far as I can tell they are attempting to fill a role that is different from SIAI and FHI by connecting with existing think tanks that are already thinking about GCR related subject matter. Check out their research page.

Thanks - lukeprog gave us a list of xirsk orgs a while back, including GCRI, so I've pasted that into the minutes also (though I've made it clear we didn't discuss them all).
