________________________________
NFAIS intends to 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. Participants in this program will provide their expert take on the following issues:

  • current negotiations regarding policies and regulations as the UK negotiates with the EU
  • current state of U.S. research policies under the new administration
  • areas of research most susceptible to impact from recent political changes

Join NFAIS for an intense look at what is happening now and what might happen in the future to research funding.
