CSIP Research Forum

Video Conference

Science, technology and innovation is essential in shaping our future. Translating the narrative into clear options, strategies and outcomes is necessary, but far from simple.

The Centre for the Study of Science and Innovation Policy (CSIP) invites all students, faculty and researchers interested in the study of science, technology and innovation policy to participate in a bi-weekly research forum. Each forum will involve a quick roundtable of introductions, a review of topical policy issues, one or more brief research reports and general discussion about research strategies and methods that are being or could be used to examine various angles of the policy system. You can simply drop in and listen or offer to present some of your findings.

CSIP is initially focused on innovation challenges in the agricultural biosciences, energy, health innovation and big-data realms, but would entertain a wider range of discussions.

Science in Policy - New Methods
Science has a critical role in policy making. A core challenge is that science often poorly fits with policy systems. In this brief presentation, Peter W.B. Phillips will open a discussion on the resulting problems and some potential remedies.
