Abstract

Science policy is a subfield of public policy and is concerned with the regulation and organization of science and research. The field includes funding, management, and evaluation of research activities, often in pursuance of other policy goals such as competitiveness, health, and national security. There is no single definition of science policy; rather there are multiple approaches to science, technology, and innovation policy – exemplified by, for example, system‐level approaches, institutional approaches, and economic and evolutionary approaches, and so forth. With the increasingly complex science and technological challenges facing society, the effective interface of science and public policy is becoming ever more important.
