Join the CSSI Community
The Kellogg Center for Science of Science & Innovation offers several opportunities to be a part of this expanding community. Our priority is to attract technically strong researchers who are also interested in asking bold, new questions with data.
Save the date for the inaugural International Conference for Science of Science and Innovation (ICSSI) on March 16-18, 2022 at the National Academy of Sciences Building in Washington, D.C. The event will bring together both producers and consumers of scientific research, including academics, experts from industry and government agencies, as well as policymakers, investors and administrators. With this broadly inclusive group, it is our goal to better inform scientific inquiry in a way that significantly improves its practical relevance for policies and communities writ large.
