The Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at Harvard Kennedy School has announced the 2011–2012 Stanton Nuclear Security Fellows. Supported by a generous gift from the Stanton Foundation, the  three fellows will spend a year in residence at the Belfer Center where they will conduct research under the auspices of the center’s International Security Program and Project on Managing the Atom. The fellowships begin in September 2011.

The 2011–12 Stanton Nuclear Security Fellowships have been awarded to the following scholars:

Robert L. Brown is assistant professor of political science at Temple University, where he teaches graduate and undergraduate courses on international relations theory and international security.

James Platte is a Ph.D. candidate in international relations at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University.

Miller, director of the Belfer Center’s International Security Program.
