The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy has announced a slate of actions across government, philanthropy, industry, education, research, and community organizations aimed at eliminating systemic barriers in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and medicine (STEMM). The effort, involving 90 institutional partners and totaling more than $1.2 billion in work and investment, will be coordinated by the newly formed STEMM Opportunity Alliance (SOA), an organization led by the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation.
