President Obama Addresses Research And Innovation In SOTU
In this post on the Global Health Technologies Coalition's (GHTC) "Breakthroughs" blog, "Ashley Bennett, senior policy associate at the GHTC, offered her take on President Obama's State of the Union address, including his emphasis on research and innovation." She writes, "While the President was not as focused on using science to help the United States out-innovate the rest of the world as he was during last year's State of the Union address, he did re-commit his administration to harnessing the strength of innovation to create an 'America built to last,'" adding, "He also urged Congress not to cut parts of the budget that will hurt the promise of science and technology" (Bennett, 1/27).
