About the journal
Issues in Science & Technology is a forum for discussion of public policy related to science, engineering, and medicine. This includes policy for science (how we nurture the health of the research enterprise) and science for policy (how we use knowledge more effectively to achieve social goals), with emphasis on the latter.
Although Issues is published by the scientific and technical communities, it is not just a platform for these communities to present their views to Congress and the public. Rather, it is a place where researchers, government officials, business leaders, and others with a stake in public policy can share ideas and offer specific suggestions.
Unlike a popular magazine, in which journalists report on the work of experts, or a professional journal, in which experts communicate with colleagues, Issues offers authorities an opportunity to share their insights directly with a broad audience. And the expertise of the boardroom, the statehouse, and the federal agency is as important as that of the laboratory and the university.
The ultimate purpose of Issues is admittedly idealistic but vital: to improve the effectiveness of public and private policy in making a better world and to raise the level of debate and mutual respect among all those who appreciate the critical contributions of science and technology.
Instructions to Authors
AUTHOR GUIDELINES
Issues in Science and Technology is the quarterly policy journal of the National Academies. We publish articles that analyze current topics in science, technology, and health policy and recommend actions by government, industry, academia, and individuals to solve pressing problems. The pages of Issues are open to anyone who can write an informed, well reasoned, and policy-relevant article. We publish feature articles of 4,000 to 5,000 words and "perspectives" of 2,000 to 2,500 words.
Proposals
Although we accept submissions of completed manuscripts, we prefer that authors begin by submitting a 2-3 page outline or proposal that explains the problem or issue to be discussed, sketches the structure of the analysis, and provides as much detail as possible about the conclusions and recommendations--specifying who should do what. We will call you to discuss the outline so that you will have some feedback before preparing a draft manuscript.
Manuscript Submission
We prefer that manuscripts be submitted electronically to: kfinnera@nas.edu
A printed version can be mailed to:

We do not use footnotes, but we do request a list of 5-10 articles or books for "recommended reading."
Accompanying tables and graphs should also be submitted via e-mail. We need to have the data on which a graph is based, because we redraw all graphs in our style
