AIBS Submits Testimony to Congress in Support of the NSF FY 2013 Budget

Conclusion
Continued investments in the biological sciences are critical. The budget request for NSF will help spur economic growth and innovation and continue to build scientific capacity at a time when our nation is at risk of being outpaced by our global competitors. Please support an investment of at least $7.373 billion for NSF for FY 2013.
Thank you for your thoughtful consideration of this request and for your prior efforts on behalf of science and the National Science Foundation.
