The Policy Studies Organization and Wiley-Blackwell publish the Review of Policy Research, in cooperation with Georgetown University and the Science, Environmental and Technology Section of the American Political Science Association. The journal explores the problems and challenges of a society where science and technology issues have left the laboratories as mere subjects of scientific study only,and rather have become pressing matters of concern for policy scholars and makers alike.

The Dupont Summit mirrors the interest of the PSO and its partners in promoting discussion from all sides of the often controversial policy initiatives that will face the President and Congress in2009 and thereafter. Asking the right questions is as important as finding answers. Our aim will be to try to establish the possible priorities for the agenda of a new Presidential administration taking place.

**These may serve as general guidelines. Please note that other suggestions regarding Science & Technology Policy will be most welcome.
