Election to the National Academy of Sciences:Pathways to membershipEvery spring, in late April or early May, the NationalAcademy of Sciences (NAS) elects new members.Membership in the NAS is a widely recognized signof excellence in scientific research, but most scientistsare not familiar with the process by which membersare elected.electedThe election’s successive ballots have become morecomplicated over time,time in part reflecting the rapidexpansion of scientific fields. The complexity reflectsa consensus process designed to ensure that an individual,or small ggroupp of individuals,, cannot have an undueinfluence on the election.www pnas orgcgidoi10 1073pnas 0503457102 PNAS May 24www.pnas.orgcgidoi10.1073pnas.050345710224, 2005 volvol. 102 nono. 21 7405–74067405 7406Bruce Alberts, President, National Academy of SciencesKenneth R.

Consideration of a candidate begins with his or her nomination.Although many names are suggested informallyinformally, a formal nominationcan be submitted only by an Academy member.Each nomination includes a brief curriculum vitae pplus a 250-wordstatement of the nominee’s scientific accomplishments— the basis forelection—and a list of not more than 12 publications.The latter limit helps to focus on the quality of a nominee’s work,rather than the number of publications.Once a nominationOi i hash beenbprepared,d iti isi sent to theh chairh i off one offthe Academy’s 31 discipline based Sections, e.g., chemistry, cellularand developmental biology, or mathematics.(for a complete list, see www.nas.edu/sections)

History of the National Academies

History of the National AcademiesThe National Academy of Sciences was born in the travail ofthe Civil War. The Act of Incorporation, signed by PresidentLincoln on March 3, 1863, established service to the nation asits dominant purpose.purposeOver the years, the National Academy of Sciences hasbroadened its services to the government.gIn 1916 the Academy established the National ResearchCouncil at the request of President Wilson to recruit specialistsfrom the larger scientific and technological communities toparticipate in that work.UnderUd ththe authorityth it off itsit charter,h t theth NationalN ti l AcademyA doffSciences established the National Academy of Engineering in1964 and the Institute of Medicine in 1970.

THE NATIONAL RESEARCHCOUNCIL (NRC) Serves as the principal operating arm of the NAS and theNational Academy of Engineering (NAE) in providing services togovernment,, the public,p, & the scientific & engineeringggthe gcommunities Administered jointly by the NAS & NAE and the Institute ofMedicine (IOM)

TodayThe mission of the NRC is to improvepggovernment decision makingg and ppublicpolicy, increase public education and understanding, and promote theacquisition and dissemination of knowledge in matters involving science,engineering, technology, and health.The NRC is committed to providing elected leaders, policy makers, and thepublic with expert advice based on sound scientific evidence. The NRC does notreceive direct federal appropriations for its work. Individual projects arefunded by federal agencies, foundations, other governmental and privatesources, and the institution's endowment.The work is made possible by 66,000000 of the world'sworld s top scientistsscientists, engineersengineers, andother professionals who volunteer their time to serve on committees andparticipate in activities.

EExecutiveti OrderO d 2859 Amendment of Executive Order No. 2859 of May 11, 1918, Relating to the National ResearchCouncil (Executive Order No. 10668 of May 10, 1956) "1. The functions of the Council shall be as follows:"(a) In general, to stimulate research in the mathematical, physical, and biological sciences, and inthe application of these sciences to engineering, agriculture, medicine, and other useful arts, with thej of increasingg knowledge,g , of strengtheninggg the national defense,, and of contributingg in otherobjectways to the public welfare."(b) To survey the broad possibilities of science, to formulate comprehensive projects of research,and to develop effective means of utilizing the scientific and technical resources of the country fordealing with such projects."(c) To promote cooperation in research, at home and abroad, in order to secure concentrationof effort, minimize duplication, and stimulate progress; but in all cooperative undertakings to giveencouragement to individual initiative, as fundamentally important to the advancement of science."(d) To serve as a means of bringing American and foreign investigators into active cooperationwith the scientific and technical services of the Department of Defense and of the civilbranches of the Government."(e) To direct the attention of scientific and technical investigators to the importance of military andindustrial problems in connection with national defense, and to aid in the solution of these problemsbyy organizinggg specificpresearches."(f) To gather and collate scientific and technical information, at home and abroad, in cooperationwith governmental and other agencies, and to render such information available to duly accreditedpersons. ment to executive order 2859.asp

FACAAcademies are exemptp from all but Sec. 15;; formost committees:– appointments, meeting notices will be posted on theWeb– principal report reviewers will be identified after thereport is completed– written materials provided by outsiders will be publiclyavailable (except classified or proprietary material)

STEPS TAKEN TO ENSURE INDEPENDENCE AND OBJECTIVITYThe reports of the National Academies are viewed as being valuable and credible because of theinstitution’s reputation for providing independent, objective, and non-partisan advice with highstandards of scientific and technical quality. Checks and balances are applied at every step in thestudy process to protect the integrity of the reports and to maintain public confidence in them. Thestudy process can be broken down into four major stages:1) defining the study,2) committee selection and approval,3) committee meetings, information gathering, deliberations, and drafting of the report, and4) report review.

Conflict of InterestPOINT OF VIEW IS DIFFERENT FROM CONFLICT OFINTERESTA point of view or bias is not necessarily a conflict of interest. Committeemembers are expected to have points of view, and the NationalAcademies attempt to balance these points of view in a way deemedappropriate for the task. Committee members are asked to considerrespectfully the viewpoints of other members, to reflect their ownviewsiratherh thanh beb a representativei off any organization,i i andd to basebtheir scientific findings and conclusions on the evidence. Eachcommittee member has the right to issue a dissenting opinion to thereport if he or she disagrees with the consensus of the other membersmembers.

NATIONAL MATERIALS ANDMANUFACTURING BOARDVisionThe mission and vision of the board is to provide objective,independent assessments of the current state of materials andmanufacturing research- including at the atomic, molecular, andnano scales - and the applicationsppof new and existingg materials ininnovative ways, including pilot-scale and large-scalemanufacturing, the design of new devices, and disposal.

Holds Topical Workshops (as well as similar meetings which may be called research briefings,briefings symposia,symposiaconferences, or forums) to increase visibility and awareness for materials science issues. These may be organizedin as little as a month, may or may not include a proceedings or a summary report, or may use an appointedcommittee and produce a consensus report with NRC recommendations.Performs Narrow-Focus Studies to answer a specific technical or policy question, or to provide a fast responseto a pressing issue. This activity includes appointing a knowledgeable committee as well as some degree ofresearch and other fact-finding to support the committee's findings. Full activity reporting is required, as well asa full-consensus report review. The standard timeframe for such a study is 6-12 months.Performs In-Depth Studies to thoroughly address an overarching, multifaceted question with diligence andrigor. This activity includes appointing a distinguished committee as well as comprehensive research andanalysis. Full activity reporting is required, as well as a full-consensus report review. The products of such anactivity may also include interim reports, letter reports, and one or more 'open' meetings, similar to workshops.The standard timeframe for such a study is 12-18 months.Facilitates Topical Roundtables to bring together policy makers, technical experts, and practitioners fordiscussion. The Roundtable may set any schedule for meetings or workshops, and produces no reports orrecommendations.ecoe da o s. No activityac v y reportingepo g iss required.equ ed.
