Project Scope
|
1) With encouragement from the House Science Committee and the White House
Office of Science and Technology Policy, NSF and NIH have requested that the
Committee on Science, Technology, and Law establish an ad hoc Committee on a
New Government-University Partnership for Science and Security.
This new committee will bring together representatives from universities, scientific publications, federal research agencies, and the national security community, for a series of frank discussions about how the academic research environment may be affected by September 11th. Specifically, the Academies plan to convene these stakeholders at three regional campus workshops during Spring and Fall 2006. These workshops will lead to a meeting in Washington, DC and the publication of a report that is intended to highlight the main issues identified during the workshops, including recommendations to maintain a thriving scientific research environment in an era heightened security concerns.
b) This project is sponsored by the National Institutes of Health, Department
of Health and Human Services, and the National Science Foundation.
c)The approximate start date of the project is 8/1/2005.
4) These meetings will lead to a convocation in Washington, DC and the publication of a report that is intended to highlight the main issues identified during the meetings, including recommendations to maintain a thriving scientific research environment in an era heightened security concerns. Briefings of the interested communities will follow release of the report.
