A planning committee of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will organize a series of six short, virtual workshops to consider opportunities for strengthening U.S. science and technology leadership through global cooperation and partnership. The workshops will explore current challenges to U.S. leadership in science and innovation and the ways in which global engagement can enhance U.S. competitiveness. Topics for consideration during the workshops include: challenges to U.S. science and technology leadership; strengthening the intersection of science, foreign policy, and international development assistance policy; demonstrating the value of international research collaboration; maintaining U.S. leadership in international standards bodies; supporting international students and researchers in the United States; and improving the U.S. innovation environment with public-private partnerships. The virtual workshops – each 90 minutes in length – are meant to catalyze high-level policy discussions and to stimulate further dialogue on science and innovation policy. A rapporteur-authored proceedings in brief will be published summarizing all workshops in the series.
