Date:10/22/2010

azil and the United States to partner in S&T, including advanced materials; biotechnologies and nanotechnologies; chip design; climate change; health and space; and defense.

While Brazil is taking its approach to S&T seriously, its government is investing 1.2 percent of its gross domestic product in S&T, lecture speaker Kaszkurewic said, adding more needs to be done in the coming decade.

He noted, for example, the country lags in high-technology exports: "The main objective of [Brazil's] science, technology and innovation investments is to push that line to the right."

ONR's previous international lectures have explored innovation in China and India. The next lecture series is scheduled from 1:30 p.m. to 3 p.m. Dec. 16 at ONR, and will feature Peter W. Singer, director of the 21st Century Defense Initiative, a senior fellow in Foreign Policy at the Brookings Institution and author of "Wired for War: The Robotics Revolution and Conflict in the 21st Century."
