These Four Policy Prescriptions - Strengthening Educational Opportunities, Revamping Immigration Rules For Highly Skilled Workers, Increasing Federal Funding For Basic Scientific Research, And Providing Incentives For Private-sector R&d - Should In My View Be Top Priorities As Congress And The Administration Consider How To Maintain The Nation's Leadership In Science, Technology, And Innovation.

I Do Normal Kind Of Contributions, Particularly For People Who Are Going Over To Africa And Help Highlighting Global Health, And That's Tended To Be Pretty Bipartisan In Nature Because Of The Coalition There Exists Fortunately Around These Global Health Issues.

The Phenomenal Generosity Of The United States In Its Aid Budget Towards Health Issues Is The Best In The World. You Can Look At That Broadly, You Can Look At It In Terms Of Hiv, The Pepfar Money Which Came Together In A Republican Administration With Bipartisan Support.

I Believe Innovation Is The Most Powerful Force For Change In The World.
