Page Stoutland joined the Nuclear Threat Initiative in February 2010, and is NTI's vice president, Nuclear Materials Security. He is responsible for NTI's programs to strengthen and maintain security of nuclear materials around the world. Current program themes include catalyzing and reinforcing international partnerships to secure and consolidate materials, identifying efforts to strengthen sustainability of security improvements and promoting global scientific and technical cooperation in these and related areas. One of his major current efforts is the development of a nuclear security index to promote the global dialogue on security priorities and to quantify global materials security levels.

Prior to joining NTI, Stoutland spent the last ten years at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) where he held a number of senior positions, including the director of strategy, program director for Domestic Security and division Leader for Radiological & Nuclear Countermeasures. During this time, he was instrumental in developing and leading LLNL's programs in support of the post-9/11 homeland security effort. This included the development and deployment of next-generation radiation sensor systems, the deployment of systems to protect high-value assets and the advancement of nuclear forensics approaches. Most recently, he led the development of the strategy to grow LLNL's global security programs and to strengthen project delivery.

Prior to joining LLNL, he held positions within the U.S. Department of Energy where he served as the director of the Chemical and Biological National Security Program and at Los Alamos National Laboratory.

Stoutland holds a bachelor's degree from St. Olaf College in Northfield, Minnesota and a doctorate in chemistry from the University of California, Berkeley. After completing his doctorate, he spent two years at Stanford University as a National Institutes of Health post-doctoral fellow.
