On May 22, 2019, the Coalition for National Security Research—of which SIAM is a member—jointly hosted the second annual Science, Technology, & Innovation Exchange briefing with the Department of Defense (DoD) Basic Research Office. The event took place on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., and showcased remarks by members of Congress, DoD officials, and scientists. A corresponding poster exhibition highlighted the many ways in which the U.S. research enterprise confronts scientific challenges currently facing the defense community. SIAM Science Policy Fellowship recipient Robert Edman (Adventium Labs) presented a poster that emphasized applied mathematics’ relevance to the DoD mission.
