 The National Science Policy Network (NSPN) and the Journal of Science Policy & Governance (JSPG) will be joining forces in 2020 to enhance collective science policy initiatives for early career scientists and engineers. NSPN will be the official annual sponsor for JSPG in 2020, enabling the expansion of science policy advocacy and the generation of new opportunities for affiliates of both organizations to amplify the voices of science as the 2020 U.S. election draws near.
 Erin Heath, Associate Director of Government Relations at the American Association for the Advancement of Science has been named the Chair of the JSPG Governing Board.
In this capacity, Erin will work with the JSPG board and CEO to advance the journal’s mission of publishing relevant and high-quality policy research and serving as a catalyst for professional and intellectual development for students, postdocs, policy fellows, and early career professionals worldwide.

 JSPG has announced its 2019-2020 Governing Board. The Governing Board is comprised of leaders and scholars in science policy who provide oversight and strategic guidance for JSPG’s work, particularly for outreach, engagement, and strengthening partnerships.
JSPG has expanded its efforts to expand engagement and collaboration with science policy and diplomacy organizations outside of the United States with the creation of two new staff positions.
 Science Debate asks candidates, elected officials, the public and the media to focus more on science policy issues of vital importance to modern life. As a registered 501(c)(3), Science Debate is nonpartisan. Under the partnership, JSPG and Science Debate will cross promote and explore collaborative strategies to engage students, postdocs, and early career researchers in science, technology, and innovation policy election debates.
