The Potomac Institute for Policy Studies is an independent, nonpartisan, non-profit, science and technology (S&T) policy research institute. Founded in 1994, the Potomac Institute carries on the legacy of the U.S. Congress’s former Office of Technology Assessment, providing nonpartisan, data-driven analysis and policy recommendations on a range of S&T topics. Over the decades, the Institute has become the “go to” place for independent, objective, and informed S&T policy and analysis.
