SMITH Biomedical research is one of the American public's highest priorities and is among the best examples of productive federal investment. In this book, some of the nation's best scientists and policy analysts explore and debate the burning issues that will determine the success of biomedical science- and its impact on human health-in the twenty-first century. It is required reading for anyone interested in science, health, and public policy. -Eric Lander, Director, Whitehead/MIT Center for Genome Research The Future of Biomedical Research is a model for the process now under- way in which this country is pondering its medical and scientific future...Career centers should make certain that this.. .is available to any student considering a career in biomedical research. -Stephen Joel Trachtenberg, President, George Washington University Nineteen experts grapple with the major issues confronting the nation in ensuring continued U.S. leadership in biomedical research and, at the same time, in achieving the fullest possible social benefits from this research. The authors explore the prospects for government support of biomedical research in an era of federal downsizing, the merits of funding disease-based research and untargeted basic research, the promise and challenges of the growing alliance in research between universities and corporations, and the granting of intellectual property rights for publicly funded research. Claude E. Barfield is a resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute and the director of AEI's science and technology policy studies. Bruce L. R. Smith, a retired senior staff member at the Brookings Institution, is author of The Advisers: Scientists in the Policy Process (1992) and American Science Policy since World War II (1990).
