The AAAS Policy Alert is a weekly newsletter of policy developments in areas of concern to the science and engineering community. It includes short items on such subjects as the federal budget, stem cell research, science and security, and climate change, with links to additional information.

Originally developed as a means of keeping the AAAS Board of Directors informed, it is now sent to all members at the Board’s request as a exclusive benefit of AAAS membership. To become a AAAS member and receive weekly Policy Alerts, visit AAAS Member Central.

If you have comments or suggestions about the Alert, or if you have tips on news items that you would like to bring to our attention, please write to alert@aaas.org.
