About This Cause

NISS is a national institute of modest size that delivers high-impact research in science and in public policy by leveraging the rich expertise of its staff with that of its base of affiliated organizations in academia, industry and government. As its name indicates, NISS works on issues where information and quantitative analysis are keys to solutions and decisions. NISS functions in three ways: as expert advisor, as basic researcher, as collaborator. NISS serves as a neutral, objective expert or as an advisor to evaluate policy, to review organizations, to define the technical context for complex problems in government and in industry. NISS also serves as an independent research organization, assembling state-of-the-art information and developing theory and methodology to solve problems of import to science or to policy. NISS also acts as a convener, collaborator and hub for complex projects that require expertise from multiple sources whether these are drawn from academia, government, or private corporations.
