Government reps visit campus, learn from researchers

As a part of the Office of Government, Community and Public Affairs program to introduce individuals involved in federal funding activities to Harvard researchers, a delegation from the National Science Foundation and the House Appropriations Committee spent this past Monday (Aug. 21) on campus.

“We find the more we can get Washington decision makers on the ground at Harvard to see what the funding is accomplishing, the more support we are able to generate to continue the activities,” explained Suzanne Day, Harvard’s director of federal relations and the organizer of the trip.
