Partners in Science: The EU at AAAS

Europe and the United States are two major powerhouses when it comes to research and innovation.

Discover the scope of our cooperation and the role of the EU in science in this podcast conversation between Jean-Eric Paquet, Director-General for Research and Innovation at the European Commission, and Senior Communications Officer Martin Caudron.

This episode was recorded in the margins of the annual meetings of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) in Washington, DC (14-17 February 2019).

The AAAS annual meeting is among the world's largest and most prestigious general scientific events, gathering thousands of international scientists, policy makers and science journalists. The programme typically includes keynote speeches, scientific symposia, an exhibition, and press briefings on recent scientific discoveries.

This year's event focused on "Science without boundaries", and the European Commission was organising a number of scientific symposia and a career development workshop.
