SUMMARY:Chancellor’s Colloquium: Debate on Public Funding for Research
DESCRIPTION:The next installment in the Chancellor’s Colloquium Distinguished Speaker Series will be what organizers call a “robust but civilized” debate about whether scientific research should be publicly funded. \nTickets to the event are free and available now; it will also be livestreamed on YouTube. \nThe debate\, organized by The Steamboat Institute\, will put this resolution to a pair of economists: “Be it resolved\, scientific progress is best achieved through publicly funded research initiatives.” \nArguing in favor of that viewpoint will be Jon Hartley\, an economist specializing in finance\, labor economics and macroeconomics who is a policy fellow at the Hoover Institution. \nArguing against public funding for research will be John Early\, a mathematical economist and adjunct scholar at the Cato Institute. \nTickets are available online: https://leadership.ucdavis.edu/events/chancellors-colloquium-debate-public-funding-research
