In this capacity he served as an advisor to the president and was responsible for the formulation of US nonproliferation policy toward Russian and the Middle East. During his tenure Dr. Caravelli took part in a lengthy series of negotiations with senior Russian officials regarding assistance to Iran's WMD programs being carried out by Russian entities. In 2000, Dr. Caravelli joined the Department of Energy as Deputy Assistant Secretary and Director of the department's three largest threat reduction programs that carried out work in Russia to secure nuclear weapons and materials. He left government service in 2005 and currently is a Visiting Professor at the UK Defence Academy, a Chatham House Fellow and a member of the advisory board of the Oxford University Pluscarden Programme for the Study of Intelligence and Terrorism. He is the author of the forthcoming book (December 2007) Nuclear Insecurity: Understanding the Threat from Rogue Nations and Terrorists.
