Obama Ready to Pick Science Adviser
"Strong indications are that President-elect Barack Obama has picked physicist John Holdren to be the president's science adviser," according to Science.
"Holdren had been planning to attend a staff meeting this morning with colleagues at the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, where he heads the technology and science program. But instead, he flew today to Chicago to meet with the transition team and prepare for the announcement; initial plans are to release the official news of the appointment on a weekly radio program that Obama records and will be broadcast on Saturday."
