Submitted Apr 30, 2007 (Edited Nov 30, 2016) to Science Research Groups » Science and Society The Social and Information Sciences Laboratory - SISL - studies how markets and other social systems aggregate large amounts of information that is widely distributed. Researchers in SISL are also working to design new and improved markets, network protocols, sensor systems, and political processes. One of the novel aspects of SISL research concerns understanding how humans interact with technology and what that implies about the design of the technology. Since such systems involve both human behavior and technology, SISL brings together researchers from the social sciences, engineering, and applied and computational mathematics.

Submitted Apr 19, 2007 (Edited Sep 14, 2008) to Science Research Groups » Science and Society The Baker Institute Science and Technology Policy Program is designed to bring attention to and bridge the gap between science and public policy. The mission of the Science and Technology Policy Program is to address a broad range of policy issues which affect scientists and their research. Our goal is to have both scientists and policy makers work together to inform each other on important issues. By doing so, public policy will more accurately reflect current scientific research and be more consistent with scientific consensus. It will also give an opportunity for scientists to learn from the general public and respond to their concerns.
