NFAIS Plans Virtual Workshop on R&D Funding
The National Federation of Advanced Information Services (NFAIS) will host a virtual half-day workshop on July 31, 2017, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. EST. The workshop—Can R&D Funding Be Separated From Political Agendas?—will “tackle the rarely-addressed subject of R&D, STEM, and Humanities funding in light of the vagaries brought about by changes in government policies. The near-current advent of Brexit coupled with the new U.S. administration creates a palatable fear among researchers around the globe.” The program participants will discuss U.K. negotiations with the European Union (EU), U.S. research policies under the current administration, and the areas of research most impacted by these political upheavals.For more information, visit the workshop’s webpage.
