9634545 Teich In 1993, the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) initiated an effort to assist NSF and the state EPSCoR programs in developing a clearer understanding of the concept of a state's competitiveness in research, developing criteria for assessing competitiveness and its progress over time, and identifying strategies to enhance competitiveness. This effort has yielded important results which have improved the understanding of what makes states, institutions, and individuals competitive in research. The results are in a book published by AAAS early in 1996 entitled, Competitiveness in Academic Research (Albert H. Teich, editor). The present proposal seeks support to build on this intellectual base and use AAAS's resources to build closer ties between the EPSCoR program participants and the broader science and technology community. The proposed project will have three elements: (1) A leadership development program to assist EPSCoR states in developing and nurturing ties to the broader scientific community. This element will include a series of regional meetings for EPSCoR personnel aimed at giving them the opportunity to think systematically about the conceptual and practical issues surrounding their programs; (2) A technical assistance extension service to work with EPSCoR states in shaping their science and technology development plans and integrating those plans into broader economic and social development strategies. Under this project element, a team of world-class experts will be developed and made available to state EPSCoR programs to assist them in their planning and proposal development efforts; (3) An effort to enrich the intellectual framework of the EPSCoR program through an examination of the nature of competitiveness in research and the relative efficacy of various strategies aimed at achieving it, extending and exploiting the work begun under the initial AAAS EPSCoR project and gaining additional value from i t. A distinguished advisory committee constituted by the AAAS Committee on Science, Engineering, and Public Policy (COSEPP) and including members of COSEPP, state EPSCOR project directors, and others with relevant perspectives and expertise, will oversee all aspects of the project. The project is planned to run for three years.

小行星9634545 1993年，美国科学促进会（AAAS）发起了一项努力，帮助NSF和国家EPSCoR计划更清楚地理解国家研究竞争力的概念，制定评估竞争力及其随时间推移的进展的标准，并确定提高竞争力的战略。 这一努力取得了重要成果，提高了对国家、机构和个人在研究中具有竞争力的原因的理解。 研究结果发表在美国科学促进会1996年初出版的一本名为《学术研究的竞争力》的书中。 Teich，editor）. 目前的建议寻求支持，以建立在这一知识基础上，并利用AAAS的资源，建立更密切的联系EPSCoR计划的参与者和更广泛的科学和技术界。 拟议的项目将有三个要素：（1）领导力发展计划，以协助EPSCoR国家发展和培养与更广泛的科学界的联系。 这一部分将包括为EPSCoR人员举行一系列区域会议，旨在使他们有机会系统地思考围绕其方案的概念和实际问题;（2）技术援助推广服务，与EPSCoR国家合作，制定其科学和技术发展计划，并将这些计划纳入更广泛的经济和社会发展战略。 在这一项目构成部分下，将建立一个世界级专家小组，并向各州的EPSCoR方案提供协助，协助它们进行规划和拟订提案的工作;（3）通过研究竞争力的性质以及旨在实现竞争力的各种战略的相对有效性，努力丰富EPSCoR计划的知识框架，扩展和利用在最初的AAAS EPSCoR项目下开始的工作，并从中获得额外的价值。 由AAAS科学、工程和公共政策委员会（COSEPP）组成的一个杰出的咨询委员会，包括COSEPP成员、州EPSCOR项目主任以及其他具有相关观点和专业知识的人，将监督项目的各个方面。 该项目计划运行三年。
