A restored role for scientists

In a sign that President-elect Barack Obama intends to elevate science to greater prominence, John P. Holdren, a Harvard physicist widely recognized for his leadership on energy policy and climate change, will be appointed White House science adviser this weekend, the Globe confirmed yesterday.

A representative from one of the institutions with which Holdren is affiliated said Obama will announce Holdren's selection during a Saturday morning radio address.

During the presidential campaign, Obama received the endorsement of Nobel laureates and outlined policies that were praised by the scientific community, including plans to elevate the post of science adviser to a senior-level position.

Since being elected, Obama has explicitly said that issues such as global warming and alternative energy will be a priority.

The recent appointments, scientists said, were an encouraging sign.

Also yesterday, The Washington Post reported that Jane Lubchenco, a prominent marine biologist at Oregon State University, had been picked to head the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

4. Science is back!

I'm so glad that Obama is president. I think he will have more of a commitment to science than any other president. I don't even think that Hillary would have had the same commitment.

It's funny. Reading GD:P lately one would have thought Obama is an anti-intellectual... by association.
