Desc	THE SCIENCE FAMILY OF JOURNALS: SCIENCE, FOUNDED IN 1880 ON $10,000 OF SEED MONEY FROM THE AMERICAN INVENTOR THOMAS EDISON, HAS GROWN TO BECOME THE WORLD'S 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, TOO, 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. ITS ARTICLES CONSISTENTLY RANK AMONG WORLD'S MOST CITED RESEARCH. SCIENCE'S LEADING POSITION STEMS FROM MANY FACTORS: - THE JOURNAL'S 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 WORLD'S 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 CREATIVE PRODUCTION AND ART GROUP, 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. TODAY, 135 YEARS AFTER ITS FOUNDING, SCIENCE CONTINUES TO PUBLISH THE VERY BEST IN SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH, NEWS, AND OPINION. WHETHER THE READER IS CONCERNED WITH AIDS, EBOLA, GENOMIC MEDICINE, MARS, OR GLOBAL WARMING, OR JUST WANTS TO KEEP ABREAST OF WHERE THE SCIENTIFIC WORLD IS AND WHERE IT'S GOING, THEY WILL FIND SOMETHING WORTHWHILE IN SCIENCE. IN ADDITION TO ITS FLAGSHIP JOURNAL, SCIENCE, AAAS ALSO PUBLISHES TWO OTHER SCHOLARLY JOURNALS AND, NEW IN 2014, AAAS LAUNCHED ITS FIRST OPEN ACCESS ONLINE-ONLY JOURNAL: SCIENCE SIGNALING OFFERS ORIGINAL REVIEW ARTICLES, PROTOCOLS, TEACHING RESOURCES, AND OTHER RESOURCES ON CELLULAR SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION -- THE STUDY OF HOW CELLS COMMUNICATE THROUGH CHEMICAL SIGNALS, AN INTERDISCIPLINARY FIELD WITH IMPLICATIONS IN BIOLOGICAL AREAS RANGING FROM EMBRYO DEVELOPMENT TO CANCER RESEARCH. A UNIQUE FEATURE OF THE SCIENCE SIGNALING WEBSITE IS ITS DATABASE OF CELL SIGNALING, WHICH GRAPHICALLY DEPICT THE CHEMICAL PATHWAYS OF CELL SIGNALING. SCIENCE TRANSLATIONAL MEDICINE FOCUSES ON PRACTICAL MEDICAL ADVANCES THAT RESULT FROM ALL STAGES OF TRANSLATIONAL MEDICINE. THE SITE OFFERS ORIGINAL RESEARCH, PERSPECTIVES DISCUSSING IMPORTANT RESULTS FROM BOTH CLINICAL AND BASIC RESEARCH VIEWPOINTS IN ALL AREAS OF MEDICINE, COMMENTARY FROM EXPERTS IN THE REGULATORY, POLICY, AND RESEARCH FIELDS, AND REVIEWS THAT IDENTIFY ROADBLOCKS IN THE TRANSLATION OF BASIC RESEARCH RESULTS INTO PRACTICAL TREATMENTS FOR SPECIFIC DISEASES AND EXPLORE TACTICS TO OVERCOME THOSE OBSTACLES. SCIENCE ADVANCES IS AN ONLINE-ONLY GOLD OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL THAT PUBLISHES HIGH-IMPACT ORIGINAL RESEARCH IN FIELDS FROM COMPUTER SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING TO ENVIRONMENTAL, LIFE, MATHEMATICAL, PHYSICAL, AND SOCIAL SCIENCES. THE JOURNAL AIMS TO PUBLISH CROSS-DISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AND COLLABORATIONS, TO ENCOURAGE INNOVATIVE APPROACHES TO COMPLEX SCIENTIFIC AND SOCIAL PROBLEMS, AND SUPPORT OPEN DISCOURSE AMONG READERS IN DIVERSE AREAS OF INTEREST AND EXPERTISE. IN KEEPING WITH ITS TRADITION OF BREAKING NEW GROUND IN SCIENTIFIC PUBLISHING, SCIENCE WAS A PIONEER IN MOVING JOURNAL CONTENT ONLINE, BEGINNING THE SHIFT IN 1995 WITH THE START OF SCIENCE ONLINE. SINCE THEN, OUR WEB FAMILY HAS GROWN IN SCOPE: THE FLAGSHIP SCIENCE MAGAZINE SITE (WWW.SCIENCEMAG.ORG) PROVIDES THE FULL TEXT OF THE JOURNAL'S NEWS STORIES, RESEARCH REPORTS, AND COMMENTARY ARTICLES IN A SEARCHABLE DATABASE, ENHANCED BY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION, LINKS, MULTIMEDIA, AND USER SERVICES, AS WELL AS A DATABASE OF SCIENTIFIC-PRODUCT INFORMATION. SCIENCECAREERS.ORG IS THE WORLD'S LEADING RESOURCE IN MATCHING QUALIFIED SCIENTISTS WITH JOBS IN ACADEMIA, INDUSTRY, AND GOVERNMENT, WHILE ALSO SERVING AS A NETWORKING HEADQUARTERS WITH JOB LISTINGS, R SUM POSTINGS, A SEARCHABLE MEETINGS-AND-EVENTS DATABASE, AND MORE. THE SCIENCE EXPRESS AREA OF THE SITE POSTS SELECTED ORIGINAL, PEER-REVIEWED HOT RESEARCH WEEKS AHEAD OF ITS PRINT PUBLICATION DATE, THEREBY MAKING THE WORK AVAILABLE TO THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY WITHIN A MATTER OF DAYS AFTER MANUSCRIPT ACCEPTANCE. OUR ONLINE DAILY NEWS SERVICE BRINGS BRIEF BREAKING NEWS STORIES FROM THE AWARD-WINNING REPORTING STAFF OF SCIENCE TO SUBSCRIBERS EVERY BUSINESS DAY. IN ADDITION TO DEVELOPING NEW ONLINE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES, SCIENCE HAS SHOWN LEADERSHIP IN OTHER AREAS CENTRAL TO OUR CORE CONSTITUENCY -- THE WORKING SCIENTIFIC RESEARCHER. WE WERE AMONG THE FIRST SCIENTIFIC JOURNALS TO EXPLORE INSTITUTIONAL SITE LICENSING OF OUR CONTENT, A DEVELOPMENT THAT HAS SINCE BECOME COMMONPLACE AND THAT HAS PUT SCIENTIFIC CONTENT ON THE DESKTOPS OF MILLIONS OF RESEARCHERS. WE WERE AN EARLY ADOPTER OF ONLINE MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSION, STREAMLINING THE PROCESS OF GETTING PAPERS OUT OF RESEARCHERS' OFFICES AND INTO THE REVIEW PROCESS. AND, WE HAVE BEEN ACTIVE IN OPENING UP OUR RESEARCH AND OTHER CONTENT TO THE DEVELOPING WORLD THROUGH AAAS'S PARTICIPATION IN ONLINE INITIATIVES SUCH AS HINARI AND AGORA AND IN OUTREACH TO LAY STAKEHOLDERS THROUGH PATIENTINFORM.

FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4D	OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES: 1) 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 NATION'S EDUCATION SYSTEM. THE PROJECT'S 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. WITH FUNDING FROM NSF, NOAA, NASA, AND THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION, PROJECT 2061'S RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EFFORTS ARE HELPING TO FOSTER A NEW GENERATION OF MORE EFFECTIVE CURRICULUM MATERIALS -IN PRINT AND ONLINE- FOR SCIENCE TEACHING AND LEARNING. PROJECT 2061 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 DEVELOPMENT. IMPLEMENTING THE VISION OF THE NEXT GENERATION SCIENCE STANDARDS (NGSS) (LEAD STATES, 2013) 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. TEACHER DEVELOPMENT. IMPROVING STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT IN SCIENCE AND MATHEMATICS REQUIRES WELL-PREPARED TEACHERS WHO HAVE A SOLID GROUNDING IN THE CONTENT THEY TEACH AND AN UNDERSTANDING OF HOW DIVERSE STUDENTS CAN BE HELPED TO LEARN. PROJECT 2061'S PUBLICATIONS ARE WIDELY USED IN TEACHER EDUCATION COURSES, AND ITS RESEARCH STUDIES CONTINUE TO SHED LIGHT ON HOW TEXTBOOKS, TEACHING PRACTICES, AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT CAN BEST BE COORDINATED TO IMPROVE STUDENT LEARNING. PROJECT 2061 OFFERED FIVE PRACTICAL, HANDS-ON EDUCATOR WORKSHOPS IN 2014. REACHING 120 EDUCATORS WORKING ACROSS A SPECTRUM FROM CLASSROOM TEACHING TO CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT, THE SESSIONS FOCUSED ON THE PROJECT'S APPROACH TO DEVELOPING VALID SCIENCE ASSESSMENTS ALIGNED TO THE LEARNING GOALS SPECIFIED IN THE AAAS BENCHMARKS FOR SCIENCE LITERACY AND THE NEW NGSS. 2) INTERNATIONAL ACTIVITIES & SCIENCE DIPLOMACY AS SCIENCE BECOMES INCREASINGLY GLOBAL IN CHARACTER, SCIENTISTS ARE MORE AND MORE LIKELY TO REACH ACROSS NATIONAL BORDERS IN THEIR SEARCH FOR COLLABORATORS. AT THE SAME TIME, SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY MUST PLAY A CRUCIAL ROLE IN ADDRESSING THE SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC ILLS THAT AFFECT HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLE. THE GROWING AWARENESS THAT INDIVIDUAL NATIONS CANNOT ALONE TAKE ON CHALLENGES TO ENVIRONMENTAL AND PHYSICAL HEALTH HAS LED AAAS TO WORK WITH NATIONAL GOVERNMENTS AND COUNTERPART NON-GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS INTERNATIONALLY. A RESPONSE TO THESE NEEDS REQUIRES THE CREATION OF A SOLID SCIENTIFIC INFRASTRUCTURE IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES, AS WELL AS THE PROLIFERATION OF A CULTURE OF SCIENCE WORLDWIDE -AMONG RESIDENTS OF EVERY COUNTRY AND THEIR LEADERS. AAAS'S INTERNATIONAL OFFICE DEVELOPS PARTNERSHIPS AND MAINTAINS RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN AAAS AND LEADING SCIENTIFIC ORGANIZATIONS WORLDWIDE, INCLUDING FOREIGN GOVERNMENT AGENCIES AND NON-GOVERNMENTAL ACTORS. THROUGH THE IMPLEMENTATION OF SEVERAL PROGRAMS DEDICATED TO STRENGTHENING THE FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY WORLDWIDE, AAAS'S 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 OVERARCHING 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. CENTER ACTIVIES INCLUDE: SCIENCE & DIPLOMACY -A QUARTERLY PUBLICATION DEVOTED TO ISSUES AT THE NEXUS OF SCIENCE AND DIPLOMACY- TO BRING EXPERT PERSPECTIVES IN INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS TO POLICY ANALYSTS, GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS, SCIENTISTS, AND EDUCATORS. AND IN 2014, THE CENTER PARTNERED WITH THE WORLD ACADEMY OF SCIENCES TO CREATE A JOINT SCIENCE DIPLOMACY COURSE THAT BROUGHT TOGETHER THREE DOZEN SCIENTISTS, ENGINEERS, AND DIPLOMATS FROM 32 COUNTRIES. AAAS ALSO LED A DELEGATION TO CUBA THAT RESULTED IN A HISTORIC AGREEMENT TO ADVANCE U.S.-CUBA SCIENTIFIC COOPERATION ON KEY AREAS OF MUTUAL INTEREST TO BOTH COUNTRIES. 3)CENTER FOR SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, AND SECURITY POLICY (CSTSP) THE CENTER WORKS TO STRENGTHEN DIALOGUE AND INTERACTION BETWEEN THE SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL (S&T) COMMUNITY AND THE SECURITY POLICYMAKING COMMUNITY. RECOGNIZING THE GLOBAL NATURE OF THE SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNOLOGICAL ENTERPRISE, CSTSP SEEKS TO UNDERSTAND AND PROMOTE THE VALUE OF INTERNATIONAL SCIENTIFIC ENGAGEMENT IN BUILDING SECURITY, WHILE RECOGNIZING AND WORKING TO MITIGATE TENSIONS THAT MAY ARISE BETWEEN SCIENTIFIC AND SECURITY OBJECTIVES. ADVANCES IN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY HAVE SIGNIFICANT EFFECTS, BOTH BENEFICIAL AND ADVERSE, ON NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL SECURITY. SECURITY POLICIES SIMILARLY AFFECT THE SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL ENTERPRISE. CSTSP WORKS WITH THOSE IN THE SECURITY AND THE S&T COMMUNITIES TO BRING ABOUT A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF EACH OTHER'S OBJECTIVES, REQUIREMENTS, MOTIVATIONS, CONTRIBUTIONS, AND MODES OF OPERATION. IT WORKS WITH THE SCIENTIFIC AND SECURITY COMMUNITIES BROADLY TO IDENTIFY CRITICAL COMMON ISSUES, CREATE VENUES FOR EFFECTIVE DIALOGUE, DEVELOP MUTUALLY BENEFICIAL SOLUTIONS, CRYSTALLIZE POLICY TRADEOFFS, AND COMMUNICATE THE RESULTING INSIGHTS. 2014 HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE CO-HOSTING A CONFERENCE ON THE EBOLA OUTBREAK IN WEST AFRICA WITH A FOCUS ON GLOBAL HEALTH SECURITY. THE EVENT CLARIFIED SOME OF THE FACTORS THAT WORSENED THE SPREAD OF THE DISEASE AND LOOKED FOR LESSONS TO PREVENT SIMILAR GLOBAL HEALTH THREATS. 4) PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT WITH SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY 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. AAAS HAS HAD LONG-STANDING SUCCESS IN BRINGING SCIENCE TO THE PUBLIC THROUGH WORK WITH SCHOOLS, SCIENCE JOURNALISTS, AND SCIENCE MUSEUMS AND CENTERS; THROUGH RADIO, TELEVISION AND INTERNET BROADCASTING; AND THROUGH NUMEROUS PUBLICATIONS TRANSLATING SCIENCE INTO MORE UNDERSTANDABLE TERMS. 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. AAAS EMBARKED ON A MAJOR INITIATIVE IN 2014 TO INFORM THE PUBLIC POLICYMAKERS ABOUT THE RISKS OF CLIMATE CHANGE, PUBLISHING A CLEAR STATEMENT OF CURRENT CLIMATE SCIENCE IN A REPORT, AND ON A WEBSITE, ENTITLED "WHAT WE KNOW" (WHATWEKNOW.AAAS.ORG).
