Virtual Keynote Address by Advocate for Research Policymaking Set to Showcase STEP Program’s Annual Event

On Thursday, April 11, from 4-5:30 p.m., the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Policy (STEP) Program will be hosting its annual keynote address. This year’s address will feature a virtual presentation by Roger Pielke Jr., an advocate for research policymaking.

The event is sponsored by the +Policy Network, with co-sponsorship from the School of Public and International Affairs and the Department of Political Science at the university. Attendees can join a watch party in 311 Latham Hall, where light snacks will be provided. For those unable to attend in person, a Zoom option is also available but registration is required for both options.
