June 10 -- The presidents of the National Academy of Sciences, National Academy of Engineering, and Institute of Medicine today joined other scientific and educational organizations in issuing a statement urging federal agencies to streamline visa processing for scholars and scientists visiting the U.S. The government should convene a high-level panel to review all visa-related procedures put into place after 9/11, for example, and reduce repetitive processing of visa applications for researchers who regularly visit the U.S.
