We want to essentially double the scientific output of the United States.
That's a great question.
Yeah, so the Office of Science and Technology Policy was uh created in the 60s to coordinate science and tech policy across the administration.
So very unique to the US is that we don't have an agency that does science and technology.
We have lots of agencies that do pieces of the science and technology enterprise.
We have a National Science Foundation that does basic research, we have a Department of Energy that runs our national labs, the Department of
War has uh extensive RD programs like DARPA, for example.
So the one office in the White House or in the in the administration broadly that's able to coordinate all those efforts is the office that I run called OSTP.
And we try to do is work with the president to set the national ST agenda and then ultimately implement that across all of our agencies.
And you had this role before, is that right?
So last administration, I was the chief.
Technology officer of the United States.
So if you think about OSTP, it does science and it does tech.
And then Trump won, uh, I ran the tech portfolio for the for the president.
It is not anti-science.
I think one of the things that I'm most proud of is the release of a new report a couple weeks ago called Science a New Golden Age.
And I think anyone who reads that report, I think what try what we will most likely see is an administration that deeply cares about the American science and technology enterprise.
We really want the US to be the home for the next great scientific discoveries.
We want to empower young scientists.
We want to create an ecosystem that allows our greatest scientists to work on.
