The Friday FYI has partnered with Issues in Science & Technology to give you a sneak peak of their Spring issue, which focuses on China and India education and research.
Issues is a joint publication by National Academy of Sciences, National Academy of Engineering, Institute of Medicine and The University of Texas at Dallas. It is a forum for discussion of public policy related to science, engineering, and medicine. This includes policy for science (how we nurture the health of the research enterprise) and science for policy (how we use knowledge more effectively to achieve social goals), with emphasis on the latter.
Enjoy the available articles and features. The Friday FYI will return next week.
