Gerson S. Sher: “Ukrainian scientists should not expect that the world will come to them. They must reach out to the world”

How to prevent science from being used as a tool of russian propaganda? Is the global scientific community aware of the needs of Ukrainian researchers during the war? How can we talk about the needs of Ukrainian science so that it is heard? And how can we build a system for introducing science-intensive innovations into production?

We asked these and other questions to Dr. Gerson S. Sher, PhD, member of the Board of International Counselors of the National Research Foundation of Ukraine. Dr. Sher was a program coordinator at the US National Science Foundation, served as Chief Operating Officer of the International Science Foundation from 1993 to 1995, and was the Founding President of CRDF Global.
