“With 17 articles, this is our second largest issue ever, and it provides a terrific showcase for the urgent and wide-ranging challenges facing society today. These publications highlight how thoroughly science intersects with policy, with topics like genetic testing databases used by law enforcement, the influence of misinformation on clean energy transitions, and more. We’re thrilled to continue growing the international network of JSPG, with subjects and authors representing Australia, Canada, France, the Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland, and beyond” said Andy Sanchez, JSPG Editor-in-Chief.

The winter standard issue includes seventeen articles addressing topics that range from deep sea mining and hydraulic fracking, clean energy production, invasive plants, maternal morbidity, PFAS-based fish consumption, and plastic consumption.

“The near-record-breaking number of submissions for this issue is a testament to the growing interest in science and technology policy and governance among students, fellows, and early career researchers and professionals,” said Julianne McCall, JSPG CEO & Managing Publisher. “A glance at any news headline reminds us of the enormity of the challenges facing societies worldwide, and we are proud to attract this cohort of authors for timely recommendations, awareness, and solutions.”​
