NEBRASKA UNION, 3:30PM APRIL 23
White House Official Kicks Off Research Fair
Kathie Olsen, a key policy official for the White House, will deliver a kick-off address at 3:30pm Wednesday, April 23 in the Nebraska Union Auditorium. Olsen is associate director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy in the Executive Office of the President. She will speak on federal funding priorities for science and technology and on new federal initiatives. The speech is the pre-opening event for the UNL Research Fair on April 24.
Olsen began her position in August 2002 and serves as Director John Marburger's deputy for science. Before her confirmation, she was chief scientist at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. She served at the administrator's senior scientific adviser and principal interface with the national and international scientific community. Before joining NASA in May 1999, she was the senior staff associate for the Science and Technology Centers in the National Science Foundation's Office of Integrative Activities.
Olsen has served a number of positions, including a stint as acting deputy director for the Division of Integrative Biology and Neuroscience at NSF, where she has worked and held many science-related positions dating back to 1984. She received her bachelor's degree in science with honors from Chatham College, Pittsburgh, Pa., majoring in biology and psychology and her doctorate from the Department of Psychobiology at the University of California, Irvine.
Olsen has been associated with the Harvard Medical School and the State University of New York at Stony Brook. Her research on the neural and genetic mechanisms underlying the development and expression of behavior was supported by grants from the National Institutes of Health.
In conjunction with Olsen's lecture, a day-long research fair is planned for Thursday, April 24 in the Nebraska Union. The UNL Research Fair, sponsored by the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research and Dean of Graduate Studies, will bring program officers from several federal agencies, such as the National Science Foundation and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, to talk about funding priorities and other new initiatives of interest to research faculty. Follow this link to a listing of scheduled events.
The Olsen speech and Research Fair are free and open to the public.
