MOST Policy Initiative is aimed at bringing scientists and policymakers together to improve livelihoods for people and communities in the Midwest. The Missouri Science & Technology Policy Fellows program is the core, inaugural program under the umbrella of MOST Policy Initiative.
In addition to placing scientifically-trained fellows in our state capitol to provide scientific resources for policymakers, we also connect science to policy through the following priority areas:
The State of Missouri is composed of several unique regions, requiring ample representation in the state government. For this reason, our state has one of the largest general assemblies with 197 combined senators and representatives. Due to the shear abundance and diversity of legislation passing through the assembly each session, legislators often must rely on external guidance to be adequately informed. MOST Policy Initiative serves as a consistent resource for policymakers when developing and voting on legislation that will impact their constituents.
Receive updates when science notes and reports are published by the MOST Policy Fellows and the Missouri Local Science Engagement Network. We will also keep you up to date on job openings, events, and other news about science and policy in Missouri.
There is still time to sign up for this afternoon's virtual information session! Join us to learn more about how to prepare a successful application for the MOST Policy Fellowship.
