    Today, the STEMM Opportunity Alliance announced their national strategy for ensuring we tap the full potential of our nation to achieve progress and excellence in STEMM by 2050. Check out the full strategy ⤵️

    Today we announced the National Strategy for STEMM Equity and Excellence at a summit co-hosted by the White House Office of Science and Technology. Learn more about our plans to implement it: https://t.co/95w3Kvlt7A The overarching goal of the national strategy is to help 20 million people from historically excluded and marginalized communities enter, contribute to, and thrive in STEMM fields by 2050. SOA’s broad cross-sector alliance now includes 200+ partners committing $2B+ to power the initiative in its next phase.

    • A graphic on a white background featuring the elements of the national strategy arranged to look like a columned building.

On Friday, we honored Lotte Bjerre Knudsen and Richard DiMarchi, whose persistence and perseverance in advancing our understanding of this class of drugs as a treatment option for obesity-related health effects earned them the Mani L. Bhaumik Breakthrough of the Year award. Through the generosity of physicist Dr. Mani L. Bhaumik, this award honors the scientists and/or engineers whose work best exemplifies the research related to the Science Breakthrough of the Year.
