Bostrom is positief oor 'menslike verbetering' of 'selfverbetering en menslike volmaaktheid deur die etiese toepassing van die natuurwetenskappe.'<ref name="Guardian2006"/><ref>Human Genetic Enhancements: A Transhumanist Perspective Journal of Value Inquiry, Vol. 37, No. 4 (2003): pp. 493-506</ref>
In 1998 het Bostrom en David Pearce die Wêreld-Transhumanistiese Vereniging gestig (wat sedertdien sy naam na Humanity + verander het).<ref name="Guardian2006">[http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/2006/may/09/academicexperts.genetics "The ideas interview: Nick Bostrom; John Sutherland meets a transhumanist who wrestles with the ethics of technologically enhanced human beings"] John Sutherland,'' [[The Guardian]]'', 9 Mei 2006.</ref> In 2004 stig hy saam met James Hughes die Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies saam. In 2005 word hy aangestel as direkteur van die Future of Humanity Institute, wat pas aan die Universiteit van Oxford gestig is. In 2009 was Bostrom die ontvanger van die Eugene R. Gannon-toekenning vir die voortgesette strewe na menslike bevordering. Hy is in 2009 aangewys as die toplys van die tydskrif, ''Foreign Policy of Global Thinkers'' in erkenning vir die "nie aanvaarding van perke vir die menslike potensiaal."<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20100107163334/http://www.foreignpolicy.com/articles/2009/11/30/the_fp_top_100_global_thinkers?page=0,30 Foreign Policy's First Annual List of the 100 Top Global Thinkers | Foreign Policy]</ref>
