Abstract
SCIENCE POLICYThe White House this week tapped a veteran Washington insider for the top research post at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), a job vacant for over a year. The choice of Norine Noonan, a biologist-turned-bureaucrat without previous ties to EPA, is raising eyebrows. But some observers say Noonan's expertise as a scientist who knows the ropes in Washington will stand her in good stead in defending the $500 million research budget at EPA, an agency often accused of giving science short shrift.
