Summary

September 16, 2024 | 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM

Join The New York Academy of Sciences and the Science and the Technology Action Committee (STAC) to discuss national science strategy. Drawing on findings from STAC’s award-winning, seminal State of Science Report, we will delve into why concerned sectors, including science, industry, education, and more, must be on the same page about the importance of adopting a national strategy to drive and align federal policies and investment in R&D.

Survey data supports the argument that inadequate investment in agencies like NSF harms STEM education, our workforce, international competitiveness, and our national security. More concerning, 70% of respondents surveyed in the State of Science report expressed that our children will be worse off than us. 

Join Nicholas Dirks of The New York Academy of Sciences, Dario Gil of The New York Academy of Sciences, STAC, the Chair of NSB, and forthcoming panelists to discuss the challenges facing the scientific community and how to overcome them.
