AAAS cautioned that a hard-fought agreement to raise the U.S. debt ceiling and reduce spending could imperil federal research investments that are essential to job creation and economic growth. Joanne Carney, director of the AAAS Office of Government Relations, warned that discretionary spending caps, approved by Congress and signed by the President, “could result in a real decrease in R&D investment for the foreseeable future.”

At the same time, Forum speakers warned and to build quality science and that uneven commitment to innovation, such as neglecting efforts to improve science education could impede science technology programs nationally and technology initiatives. and internationally. Speaker John P. Holdren, White House science and technology adviser, said President Barack Obama remains com- mitted to maintaining the United States’ science leadership. He listed proposed funding increases to federal agencies that do the kind of basic research seen as fundamental to innovation. Holdren warned, however, that overall budget-cutting will present challenges to science and technology in the years ahead.

The 2011 Forum was attended by some 500 top U.S. and foreign representatives from academia, government, indus- try and major scientific and engineering societies.

Such comprehensive accounting spurred AAAS to speak up throughout the year to preserve federal R&D funding in a climate of drastic budget-cutting, empha- sizing R&D’s role as a catalyst for economic growth.

“Over 50% of U.S. economic growth since World War II has come from science and technology,” said AAAS CEO Alan I. Leshner, executive publisher of Science, at a Con- gressional event. “The return on investment for academic scientific research is best estimated at around 28%.”

Matt Hourihan was named director of the R&D Budget and Policy Program in December 2011. Prior to joining AAAS, Hourihan tracked federal investment in energy R&D and innovation activities for the Information Technology & Innovation Foundation.

(Studies thus far have shown no consistent link, experts said.) Headlining the third event were the latest discoveries, diagnostic tools and treatments in traumatic brain injury, which is suffered by 1.7 million Americans each year. All three briefings were sponsored by the Dana Foundation, which awarded a second grant to continue the series in 2012.

Other Congressional Outreach Events Varied briefings organized by the AAAS Office of Govern- ment Relations brought top science experts together with Congressional staffers and other interested parties to delve into such urgent topics as stem cell research and climate change. Periodic events focused on the impact of climate change on U.S. water resources, crop yields and the inci- dence of extreme weather.

At one of several events co-sponsored by AAAS and other organizations such as the American Meteorological Society, climate experts considered the potential of geoen- gineering—or large-scale engineering of the environment such as by removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere— to mitigate climate change.

AAAS also co-organized the first official Climate Science Day on Capitol Hill. Climate scientists representing many disciplines came to Washington to visit Congressional offices with the aim of increasing dialogue between scien- tists and policymakers.

U.S. Representatives Judy Biggert (R-Illinois) and Rush Holt (D-) attended the April 2011 briefing where AAAS provided its analysis of the federal R&D budget.

The AAAS Center for Science, Technology and Security Policy worked in the interest of global security through a broad range of events and initiatives. Periodic sessions on Capitol Hill and at AAAS encouraged dialogue about security issues between scientists and government policymakers. U.S. Ambassador Susan Burk spoke at a “short course” International workshops offered briefing on nuclear security.

The “short course” brought together respected schol- brought together divergent ars and other leading experts who shared their insights on nuclear weapons, proliferation, arms control and terrorism. research and security communities Under a grant from the Carnegie Corporation, the on security-related issues. course was part of a broader effort to build expertise within Congress on nuclear security issues. Additional seminars explored issues ranging from detecting concealed nuclear radiation sources, to White House planning advice for a response to a nuclear detonation—facilitating valuable interaction between the science and security communities. Field trips took Congressional staffers to nuclear security facilities in this country and abroad.

Promoting Responsible Bioscience In 2011, the Center for Science, Technology and Security Policy (CSTSP) hosted the second and third workshops in a series on fostering safety and security in bioscience research in countries from the broader Middle East and North Africa (BMENA). The workshops sought to encourage international cooperation against such threats as infectious disease. The conferences incorporated input regarding particular chal- lenges that were cited by BMENA university administrators

Discussion focused on common principles in bioethics, biosafety and biosecurity to foster responsible research conduct at the institutional level and to minimize biological research risks.
