The CReST blog is active, and posts started this week with an overview of how the Center intends to develop new ideas about the future directions of science and technology, formulate strategies on how to achieve revolutionary gains in science and technology - and more.

The Potomac Institute has become a leader in providing meaningful policy options for science and technology, including national security, defense initiatives and S&T forecasting.  The Institute invests in development of research on science and technology trends to identify the key science and technology developments that could radically change or affect our society and/or national security.

Tapping into the expertise of individuals from a variety of backgrounds, CReST produces briefings and reports on trending science and technolgoy topics in society - Big Daga Analytics, Neuroscience and Technology, Threats to the Human Race, and Mental Health in the Age of Technology.

The blog will highlight key conversations and bold ideas addressing key societal, national and international science and technology issues.  Visit the CReST site and the CReST blog for more information and informative discussions and bold ideas.
