Desc	AAAS TRANSFORMATION IN 2014, THE AAAS BOARD OF DIRECTORS APPROVED A MAJOR INVESTMENT DESIGNED TO TRANSFORM THE ORGANIZATIONS PRINT-CENTRIC, SUBSCRIPTION-FOCUSED BUSINESS MODEL TO A MORE DIGITAL-FIRST, MEMBER-FACING ONE. CALLED THE AAAS TRANSFORMATION INITIATIVE, THE EFFORT HAS FOUR MAJOR STRATEGIC COMPONENTS: TRANSITIONING INTO A MULTI-MEDIA, MULTI-PLATFORM SCIENCE COMMUNICATION ENTERPRISE; TRANSFORMING MEMBERSHIP TO INCLUDE OFFERINGS BEYOND SCIENCE AND TO REACH THOSE BEYOND TRADITIONAL SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING FIELDS; ENHANCING AAAS ADVOCACY ON BEHALF OF THE SCIENCE ENTERPRISE; AND EXPANDING INNOVATION WITHIN AAAS. EACH OF THESE AREAS ENCOMPASSES MULTIPLE EFFORTS, INCLUDING THE CREATION OF OUR OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL, SCIENCE ADVANCES, LAUNCHED IN 2015; THE LAUNCH OF TRELLIS, A COMMUNICATION PLATFORM TO FACILITATE COLLABORATION AND DIALOGUE AMONG SCIENTISTS; AND A RANGE OF NEW POLICY AND ADVOCACY ACTIVITIES. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS APPROVED INVESTMENTS IN THESE INITIATIVES THROUGH THE END OF 2017. THUS, WHILE AAAS REMAINS FISCALLY STRONG, THE AAAS BUDGET HAS REFLECTED AN ANNUAL DEFICIT AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO THROUGH AT LEAST 2017. THE SCIENCE FAMILY OF JOURNALS FOUNDED IN 1848, AAAS WAS THE FIRST PERMANENT ORGANIZATION FORMED TO PROMOTE THE DEVELOPMENT OF SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING AT THE NATIONAL LEVEL AND TO REPRESENT THE INTERESTS OF ALL DISCIPLINES. IN 1899, AN ALLIANCE WITH SCIENCE MAGAZINE, A PRIVATE VENTURE PARTIALLY FUNDED BY THOMAS EDISON AND LATER ALEXANDER GRAHAM BELL, CEMENTED THE PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN AAAS AND SCIENCE THAT FLOURISHES TODAY. SCIENCE HAS GROWN TO BECOME THE WORLDS LEADING OUTLET FOR SCIENTIFIC NEWS, COMMENTARY, AND CUTTING-EDGE RESEARCH, WITH THE LARGEST PAID CIRCULATION OF ANY PEER-REVIEWED GENERAL-SCIENCE JOURNAL. THROUGH ITS PRINT AND ONLINE INCARNATIONS, SCIENCE REACHES AN ESTIMATED WORLDWIDE READERSHIP OF MORE THAN ONE MILLION. IN CONTENT, THE JOURNAL IS TRULY INTERNATIONAL IN SCOPE: SOME 35 TO 40 PERCENT OF THE CORRESPONDING AUTHORS ON ITS PAPERS ARE BASED OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES. AND ITS ARTICLES CONSISTENTLY RANK AMONG WORLDS MOST CITED RESEARCH. SCIENCES LEADING POSITION STEMS FROM MANY FACTORS: - THE JOURNALS STRONG TRADITION OF EDITORIAL INDEPENDENCE; - ITS HIGH STANDARDS OF PEER-REVIEW AND EDITORIAL QUALITY (OF THE MORE THAN 12,000 TOP-NOTCH SCIENTIFIC MANUSCRIPTS THAT THE JOURNAL SEES EACH YEAR, LESS THAN 8 PERCENT ARE ACCEPTED FOR PUBLICATION); - ITS BOARD OF REVIEWING EDITORS, CONSISTING OF CLOSE TO 200 OF THE WORLDS TOP SCIENTISTS; - ITS STRONG CONNECTIONS WITH THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY, WHICH ENSURES A STREAM OF LIVELY, UP-TO-DATE, AND AUTHORITATIVE NEWS AND COMMENTARY IN ITS PAGES; - THE DEDICATION OF ITS PROFESSIONAL STAFF IN THE U.S., THE U.K., AND OTHER COUNTRIES, INCLUDING 31 PH.D. EDITORS, A DIGITAL MEDIA AND PUBLISHING TEAM, AND A TEAM OF SCIENCE WRITERS, REPORTERS, AND JOURNALISTS SECOND TO NONE; - THE SUPPORT OF ITS PUBLISHER, AAAS, THE WORLD'S LARGEST INTERDISCIPLINARY SCIENCE SOCIETY. SCIENCE RESEARCH PUBLICATIONS ENCOMPASS ADVANCES ACROSS THE BIOLOGICAL, PHYSICAL AND SOCIAL SCIENCES, AND NEWS AND ANALYSIS EXPAND OUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE ROAD TO A ZIKA VACCINE, SAUDI ARABIAS PUSH TO PREVENT INHERITED DISEASES, AND THE ROLE OF SCIENCE IN ELECTION CAMPAIGNS, AMONG OTHER ISSUES. THE SCIENCE FAMILY OF JOURNALS INCLUDES: - SCIENCE SIGNALING, THE LEADING JOURNAL OF CELL SIGNALING AND REGULATORY BIOLOGY; - SCIENCE TRANSLATIONAL MEDICINE, INTEGRATING MEDICINE, ENGINEERING AND SCIENCE TO PROMOTE HUMAN HEALTH; - SCIENCE ADVANCES, AN INNOVATIVE AND HIGH-QUALITY OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL FOR ALL THE SCIENCES; - SCIENCE IMMUNOLOGY, RESEARCH ARTICLES THAT REPORT CRITICAL ADVANCES IN ALL AREAS OF IMMUNOLOGICAL RESEARCH, INCLUDING IMPORTANT NEW TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES; AND - SCIENCE ROBOTICS, ORIGINAL, PEER-REVIEWED, SCIENCE- OR ENGINEERING-BASED RESEARCH ARTICLES THAT ADVANCE THE FIELD OF ROBOTICS.

OFFICE OF GOVERNMENT RELATIONS THE OFFICE OF GOVERNMENT RELATIONS (OGR) IS THE PRIMARY LIAISON BETWEEN THE U.S. GOVERNMENT AND THE ASSOCIATION. OGR TRACKS SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY LEGISLATION, AND REACHES OUT TO POLICYMAKERS AND THEIR STAFF TO INFORM THEM OF THE INTERESTS AND IMPACT OF THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY. IT ASSISTS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF AAAS POSITIONS, STATEMENTS, AND TESTIMONY, AND COMMUNICATES THESE AND OTHER RESOURCES TO POLICYMAKERS AND THE PUBLIC. WITHIN OGR: - THE RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT BUDGET AND POLICY PROGRAM PROVIDES EXPERT AND DETAILED, INDEPENDENT ANALYSIS OF THE POTENTIAL IMPACTS OF CURRENT LEGISLATION AND FUNDING TO POLICYMAKERS AND OTHERS THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY. IN 2016, THE PROGRAM ROLLED OUT A NEW BUDGET DASHBOARD THAT DETAILS TRENDS IN FEDERAL R&D IN A MORE ACCESSIBLE WAY. IN ADDITION, THE PROGRAM ANALYZED CONGRESSIONAL FUNDING PROPOSALS FOR THE 2017 BUDGET, AND ISSUED A JOINT REPORT IN NOVEMBER WITH OTHER LEADING SCIENCE ORGANIZATIONS. - THE CATALYZING ADVOCACY IN SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING WORKSHOP IS AN ANNUAL THREE-DAY WORKSHOP THAT PROVIDES POLICY, ADVOCACY AND COMMUNICATION TRAINING TO UPPER-CLASS UNDERGRADUATES AND GRADUATE STUDENTS. IN 2016, OVER 100 STUDENTS PARTICIPATED IN THE WORKSHOP. - THE 2015 AND 2016 NEUROSCIENCE AND SOCIETY SERIES ORGANIZED FOUR PUBLIC LECTURES AND FOUR CAPITOL HILL BRIEFINGS ON TOPICS RANGING FROM THE TREATMENT OF MENTAL ILLNESS TO THE COMPLEXITY OF CHRONIC PAIN. ADDITIONAL ACTIVITIES INCLUDE PUBLISHING THE NEWSLETTER SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY IN CONGRESS AND CONTRIBUTING TO THE WEEKLY POLICY ALERT.	Desc

FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4D, OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES:	PROJECT 2061. PROJECT 2061 IS A LONG-TERM AAAS INITIATIVE TO HELP ALL AMERICANS BECOME LITERATE IN SCIENCE, MATHEMATICS, AND TECHNOLOGY. TO ACHIEVE THAT GOAL, PROJECT 2061 CONDUCTS RESEARCH AND DEVELOPS TOOLS AND SERVICES THAT EDUCATORS, RESEARCHERS, AND POLICYMAKERS CAN USE TO MAKE CRITICAL AND LASTING IMPROVEMENTS IN THE NATIONS EDUCATION SYSTEM. THE PROJECTS AREAS OF EXPERTISE INCLUDE LEARNING GOALS AND CURRICULUM. THROUGH ITS SCIENCE FOR ALL AMERICANS, BENCHMARKS FOR SCIENCE LITERACY AND THE TWO-VOLUME ATLAS OF SCIENCE LITERACY, PROJECT 2061 PROVIDES A COHERENT SET OF K-12 LEARNING GOALS THAT CAN SERVE AS A FOUNDATION FOR STATE AND NATIONAL STANDARDS. STAFF ALSO CONSULTS WIDELY WITH CURRICULUM RESEARCHERS AND DEVELOPERS. - ASSESSMENT. PROJECT 2061 HAS DEVELOPED AN ONLINE BANK OF HIGH-QUALITY TEST ITEMS AND RELATED ASSESSMENT RESOURCES FOR USE IN MIDDLE AND EARLY HIGH SCHOOL SCIENCE (HTTP//ASSESSMENT.AAAS.ORG). EACH ITEM IS RIGOROUSLY SCREENED FOR ALIGNMENT TO NATIONAL STANDARDS AND IS SUITABLE FOR USE WITH A DIVERSE RANGE OF STUDENTS, INCLUDING ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNERS. THE ITEMS HAVE BEEN FIELD TESTED WITH NATIONAL SAMPLES OF STUDENTS TO GAUGE THEIR KNOWLEDGE OF IMPORTANT SCIENCE IDEAS AND TO IDENTIFY COMMONLY HELD MISCONCEPTIONS. PROJECT 2061 PARTICIPATES IN A NUMBER OF NATIONAL ASSESSMENT EFFORTS AND CONSULTS ON A WIDE RANGE OF ASSESSMENT RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT INITIATIVES. - CURRICULUM AND TEACHER DEVELOPMENT. IMPLEMENTING THE VISION OF THE NEXT GENERATION SCIENCE STANDARDS (NGSS) REQUIRES CURRICULUM MATERIALS THAT INTEGRATE THE NGSS THREE DIMENSIONS OF LEARNING: CORE SCIENCE IDEAS, CROSSCUTTING CONCEPTS, AND SCIENCE PRACTICES. PROJECT 2061 COLLABORATES WITH RESEARCHERS AT OTHER INSTITUTIONS TO DEVELOP AND TEST MODEL CURRICULUM UNITS THAT SHOWCASE THE NGSS VISION, ARE FEASIBLE TO IMPLEMENT IN PUBLIC SCHOOL CLASSROOMS, AND SHOW PROMISE IN PROMOTING SCIENCE LEARNING OF DIVERSE STUDENTS. INTERNATIONAL ENGAGEMENT & SCIENCE DIPLOMACY. AAAS PROMOTES THE USE OF SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING TO ADDRESS CHALLENGES THAT SPAN REGIONS AND CROSS DISCIPLINES. IT HAS FORGED NEW INTERNATIONAL RELATIONSHIPS, SUPPORTED RESEARCH COLLABORATIONS, AND ENCOURAGED INNOVATION IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES. AAAS SERVES AS A RESOURCE FOR SCIENCE DIPLOMACY TRAINING, AND PROVIDES A FORUM FOR FINDING NEW WAYS TO USE SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING TO CONNECT NATIONS. THE AAAS OFFICE OF INTERNATIONAL AND SECURITY AFFAIRS (OISA)FOSTERS INTERNATIONAL SCIENTIFIC COLLABORATIONS AND PERSONAL CONNECTIONS AMONG RESEARCHERS, WHICH LEADS TO NEW DISCOVERIES, IMPROVED RELATIONSHIPS AMONG GOVERNMENT AND BENEFITS THE PUBLIC WELFARE. THROUGH THE IMPLEMENTATION OF SEVERAL PROGRAMS DEDICATED TO STRENGTHENING THE FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY WORLDWIDE, AAASS INTERNATIONAL GOALS ARE TO ENHANCE INTERNATIONAL SCIENCE COOPERATION; BUILD SCIENTIFIC CAPACITY AND DEVELOPING HUMAN RESOURCES IN SUPPORT OF DEVELOPING COUNTRIES; PROMOTE SCIENCE DIPLOMACY; AND DEVELOP A MORE COHERENT AND COMPATIBLE GLOBAL SCIENCE ENTERPRISE. THE AAAS CENTER FOR SCIENCE DIPLOMACY IS GUIDED BY THE OVER-ARCHING GOAL OF USING SCIENCE TO BUILD BRIDGES BETWEEN COUNTRIES AND TO PROMOTE SCIENTIFIC COOPERATION AS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF FOREIGN POLICY BY RAISING THE PROFILE OF SCIENCE DIPLOMACY, CREATING A FORUM FOR THOUGHT AND ANALYSIS, AND INITIATING BILATERAL ACTIVITIES. THROUGH THE PUBLICATION OF SCIENCE & DIPLOMACY-A QUARTERLY ONLINE JOURNAL-ISSUES SUCH AS RELATIONSHIP BUILDING, HEALTH DIPLOMACY, INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH AND LARGE-SCALE INFRASTRUCTURE ARE EXPLORED AND MADE AVAILABLE TO SCHOLARS, PRACTIONERS AND OTHERS INTERESTED IN SCIENCE DIPLOMACY. OISA HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE: - IN 2016, THE THIRD ANNUAL COURSE ON SCIENCE AND DIPLOMACY WAS HELD IN TRIESTE, ITALY, DRAWING TOGETHER PARTICIPANTS FROM 30 COUNTRIES AND PROVIDED SCIENCE DIPLOMACY TRAINING TO 56 RESEARCHERS AND ADMINISTRATORS. THE ATTENDEES LEARNED HOW SCIENCE DIPLOMACY CAN BE CARRIED OUT, HOW TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC AND POLICYMAKERS ABOUT RISKS, AND HOW SOME COUNTRIES ARE ALREADY USING SCIENCE DIPLOMACY. - THE U.S. AND IRAN DO NOT HAVE FORMAL DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS, MAKING SCIENTIFIC DIPLOMACY BETWEEN THE TWO COUNTRIES ESPECIALLY VALUABLE. IN 2016, AAAS HOSTED A MEETING OF SCIENCE DIPLOMATS WITH THE LEADER OF THE GERMAN ACADEMIC SCIENCE EXCHANGE SERVICE, DENNIS SCHROEDER, WHO SET UP AN OFFICE IN TEHRAN IN 2013. PARTICIPANTS ADDRESSED THE OPPORTUNITIES FOR SCHOLARSHIPS AND POTENTIAL ACADEMIC EXCHANGE PROGRAMS BETWEEN IRAN AND OTHER NATIONS. - STEMMING FROM A 2014 AGREEMENT BETWEEN AAAS AND THE CUBAN ACADEMY OF SCIENCE TO PROMOTE SCIENTIFIC COOPERATION BETWEEN THEIR COUNTRIES, IN 2016, LEADING CANCER RESEARCHERS AND THEIR CUBAN COUNTERPARTS PARTICIPATED IN A TWO-DAY SYMPOSIUM WHERE THEY DISCUSSED CUBAN ADVANCES IN IMMUNOTHERAPY CANCER TREATMENTS AND OTHER ISSUES. SCIENCE COMMUNICATION AND PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT. SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY ARE INTEGRAL TO EVERY ASPECT OF MODERN LIFE. DESPITE GENERALLY FAVORABLE PUBLIC ATTITUDES ABOUT SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, AND THEIR BENEFITS, HOWEVER, TENSIONS CONTINUE TO EMERGE AT THE INTERSECTION OF CORE HUMAN VALUES AND CERTAIN SCIENTIFIC FIELDS-FROM HUMAN EMBRYONIC STEM CELL AND GLOBAL CLIMATE-CHANGE RESEARCH, TO THE TEACHING OF EVOLUTION. INCREASINGLY, THIS TENSION HAS INTERFERED WITH SCIENTIFIC PROGRESS, THE QUALITY OF SCIENCE EDUCATION, AND THE BROADER ABILITY OF THE SCIENTIFIC ENTERPRISE TO FULLY SERVE THE NEEDS OF SOCIETY. AAAS BUILDS UPON AND MOVES BEYOND TRADITIONAL PUBLIC UNDERSTANDING EFFORTS, TOWARD MORE COMPREHENSIVE PUBLIC-DIALOGUE OPPORTUNITIES. THROUGH ITS CENTER FOR PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT WITH SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY, AAAS IS PROVIDING A VENUE FOR MULTI-DIRECTIONAL DIALOGUE ON MANY OF THE TOPICS THAT HAVE RECENTLY CAPTURED NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL ATTENTION, SUCH AS STEM CELL RESEARCH AND CLONING; EVOLUTION AND SCIENCE EDUCATION; SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY AND NATIONAL SECURITY; BIOTERRORISM; ENERGY POLICY; SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT; THE ENVIRONMENT; CLIMATE CHANGE; GENETIC MEDICINE; EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASES; GENETICALLY MODIFIED FOODS; SPACE EXPLORATION; AND NANOTECHNOLOGY.
