The NSF Divisions of Chemistry (CHE) and Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental and Transport Systems (CBET) fund this award to the National Academy of Sciences to support the core activities of the Board on Chemical Sciences and Technology (BCST). The BCST has broad representation from academe and industry and uses its collective expertise to identify the needs of the community and to provide peer-reviewed consensus reports, workshops, and symposia, as broad outreach into the chemical community and beyond. The BCST enhances the impacts of the chemistry and chemical engineering communities by engaging in questions of importance to federal decision-makers. It addresses timely research problems such as sustainability and energy, and safety and security. The Board also proactively examines topics of importance to the larger chemical enterprise, such as education and training issues, employment concerns, and changes in the research and funding models. By identifying and recruiting top experts to its ad hoc studies, BCST ensures that the present state of technical knowledge is applied to the policy issues facing decision-makers. By raising issues impacting the conduct of chemistry and chemical engineering research with federal officials, it helps assure that the community of practitioners can remain at the forefront of knowledge.

NSF化学(CHE)和化学、生物工程、环境和运输系统(CBET)部门为国家科学院提供资金，以支持化学科学与技术委员会(BCST)的核心活动。BCST拥有来自学术界和工业界的广泛代表性，并利用其集体专业知识来确定社区的需求，并提供同行审查的共识报告、研讨会和研讨会，作为对化学界和其他领域的广泛拓展。BCST通过参与对联邦决策者重要的问题来加强化学和化学工程社区的影响。它解决了诸如可持续性和能源以及安全和安保等及时的研究问题。董事会还主动审查对大型化工企业重要的主题，如教育和培训问题、就业问题以及研究和资助模式的变化。通过为其特设研究确定和招募顶尖专家，BCST确保将当前的技术知识应用于决策者面临的政策问题。通过向联邦官员提出影响化学和化学工程研究进行的问题，它有助于确保从业者社区能够保持在知识的前沿。
