Leshner joined top science policy leaders on Capitol Hill calling for a period of profound renewal in U.S. efforts to use science and technology to build relationships with other nations, even ones where the official relationship is limited.Collaboration among scientists serves a clear diplomatic purpose, Leshner said before a House Science and Technology subcommittee, by acting as a catalyst to help developing nations integrate into the global science enterprise, allowing them to "better reap the benefits of science for their societies."
