Assessment
of federal funding for scientific research and
development (R&D) has broad relevance across
academia, government and industry. Over the last
20 years, public policy decision-makers and
federal administrators have generated
legislation and guidelines for the development
of new tools to support a deeper understanding
of R&D investments. Led by the National
Institutes of Health and the National Science
Foundation, STAR METRICS and Research.gov are
two new R&D data systems. Following an
overview of these systems and tools, we will
present the findings of two portfolio analysis
projects. The first applied a topic model
approach to assess the current coverage of
funding regarding the social aspects of
environmental sustainability. The second project
generated a novel conceptual framework to
identify awards and assess outcome-based
contributions to the “BioEconomy.” We conclude
with a presentation of the political and
practical challenges that emerged during the
portfolio assessment for the BioEconomy, and a
discussion of implications for the wider use of
these new systems. |
