"It's time we once again put science at the top of our agenda and worked to restore America's place as the world leader in science and technology," Mr. Obama said in a radio address on Saturday, when he announced the appointments.

That is like music to my ears. After 8 years of science being kicked to the curb for politics, true science might actually have a voice in our Government once again. Good science leads to good policy if done correctly. I think we will be seeing good scientific input pushing US policy on multiple issues in the coming years and I could not be happier.

When you have some of the smartest people in the country helping to shape important issues we all benefit. I hope this will be the beginning of a new technology revolution across the board. Like the Moon Race in the 60's, the Green Race will define our next big leap.

I hope...
