Allow Me To Introduce Myself

Welcome to Innovation Congress!

As I launch this project, it might be helpful to tell you a little bit about myself and my vision for Innovation Congress. My undergraduate degree is in the hard sciences, but my chosen profession is the law. I see this site as a forum for discussing the intersection between my two passions. The primary focus will be developments in science & technology policy and law. This encompasses a broad range of issues, including science education, alternative energy funding in climate change legislation, space policy and funding, government transparency, online privacy and intellectual property.

I chose the name Innovation Congress not just because I intend to follow legislative developments in the science and technology realm, but out of a desire to embracing a broader meaning of congress - a forum for people to come together and discuss important issues. I hope my posts spur vigorous debate in the comments. In that spirit, I welcome guest contributors who wish to express opposing viewpoints or address issues I've yet to recognize.

Once again, welcome to Innovation Congress. I hope you enjoy.
