The President’s FY 2012 R&D budget request was released in the midst of pressure to reduce the federal deficit and cut spending levels in FY 2011.  The AAAS analysis will present the FY 2012 budget in comparison to the FY 2010 enacted levels as well as the proposed FY 2011 year-long continuing resolution(s).  The analysis will also provide an overview of the impacts of the budget proposals on all the major R&D agencies.  Don’t miss this important briefing, just one day before the CR is set to expire.
