Our Cause
“Maintaining our leadership in research...is crucial to success. But if we want to win the future - we also have to...educate our kids.”
President Barack Obama,
State of the Union Speech, 2011
Research is the basis for all discoveries, advancements and sustainability and needs to be noticed, promoted and most of all, celebrated .
