This cycle, in addition to placements in the executive, legislative, and judicial branches of government, we are introducing new opportunities for scientists to make an impact in policy:

• Pathways to Policy Fellowship (PPF): The new Pathways to Policy Fellowship expands beyond government placements, offering fellows the chance to gain science policy experience in non-governmental organizations—including non-profits, think tanks, and the private sector.

• Legislative Branch Cohort in AI (LB-AI): Applicants can now apply directly for the Legislative Branch Cohort in AI through the STPF application. Formerly known as the Rapid Response Cohort in AI, this program area places fellows in congressional offices and committees to contribute expertise at the intersection of AI and policy.

STPF seeks nominees for the LB-AI cohort from a variety of disciplines, career stages, and current work sectors, including from industry. Nominate your colleague(s) for this extraordinary opportunity to contribute meaningfully for a year in public service.
