This $474,942 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program will fund research at Duke University to evaluate the impacts of declining public R&D investment and the pivot away from defense innovation in the U.S. The research aims to (i) examine the effects of federally-funded R&D on the development of complex, science-based "deep tech" innovations, and (ii) assess the impacts of major cuts to defense research in the 1970s on the U.S. innovation system, including science, scientists, universities, and high-tech industries. The award will provide new evidence on the consequences of government withdrawal from R&D funding and develop approaches to evaluate public-private R&D spillovers to inform future policy decisions. The project will be conducted by Duke University's Office of Research Administration Division over a 3-year period from September 2024 to August 2027.
