Argonne National Laboratory

Eric Isaacs, Director of the Argonne National Laboratory, speaks about the myth of the "lone inventor," and discusses the need for a national policy and focus on setting priorities for scientific research. Not only is it good for science and technology, he says, but for the economy and job creation. He spoke at an event sponsored by the New America Foundation, Slate, and Arizona State University on May 21, 2012 in Washington, DC.
