"The Science of Science and Innovation Policy" on March 11
Innovation and entrepreneurship are essential to American competition and to development and progress. With limited financial resources, how should our country balance impending social needs with the potential benefits of scientific research? And how should the United States evaluate potential research projects? Visiting economist Kaye Husbands Fealing will talk about “The Science of Science and Innovation Policy” from 10:30 a.m. to noon on Tuesday, March 11, in Cowles Auditorium. She will present her work as a science adviser at the National Science Foundation. A panel of respondents will follow her remarks. The discussion is sponsored by the Center for Science, Technology, and Public Policy.
