for 2022 would you consider new scientific research including increased funding for the national science foundation and also work to uphold the integrity of science as well as support the federal agencies and research institutions throughout the nation. >> i started my career at nih i'm aware of the tension from bipartisan members but the sister in science, nsf with nasa and noaa all deserve the same level of support nsf does great work so you have my commitment to ensure that i would lend my voice to those who want to prioritize nsf. we certainly have seen the need for the increase of basic research during covid not just nih but nsf as well. >> one of the few engineers and scientists serving in the body, thank you. >>. >> thank you ms. young for appearing before the committee her full statement is included in the record all questions for the record are due by 12 noon tomorrow with assigned hardcopies to the click on - - to the clerk and also accepted under our rules under the current conditions she will have seven days from receipt to respond with answers. >> let me make one last comment. i just h

effect is the lead researcher on the shop project in a research associate at the national science foundation of the university of nevada he explains more about the significance of the discovery. the shouts are blowing because you know if you are living and are living below 200 meter 200 meter of deaths you still have scenes amount of light coming from the surface so. there is a bluish atmosphere her down there decreasing but if you are swimming in that bluish muster and you have a predictor which is below you even each smooching at the surface you will see the shadow of your body and then only knows that the food is ready in picture q but if you produce and you can see it on those image nur light eventually of course you disappear because you are bluish on a blue light surrounding you and that's the main purpose of the sharks own innocence we believe we just just discovered a pattern of light emission the shark was known in a family containing some luminous stuff some new species but we didn't know at all that they are producing under the dorsal fin and the reason why i used to italy unknown

particularly when it comes to muscling up on america's science strategy you know doubling the national science foundation budget looking at what you kind of do on kind of returning the united states back to this innovation powerhouse that really drove you know what we saw in silicon valley but in so many other areas the biotech revolution etc etc you know china is now appear there and so part of the question is you see diminishing investment by the u.s. increasing investment by our rivals in the world so is that a key part am i wrong or does that need to be a part of the response because i don't see the consensus behind that yet well i think that also the difference between the congress and the administration right every at the end of the last congress there were over $500.00 bills focused on china as though it's every congressman has its issue care issue that they're focused on whether it's lifting whether it's stopping chinese students from studying in the united states whatever it might be the administration needs to in my view be ahead of where the congress is and. putting together a whole strategy a

about $50 billion of that investment will apparently go to the national science foundation to focus on semiconduct ors and advanced computing, keeping us focused here. another win for the tech sector, the biden administration is letting the h-1b visa ban expired today. what is the trade? to our floor show traders, teddy weisberg and larry shover. an easy one is the chipmakers, they're having a great session right now. the infrastructure plan in the very early stages, obviously, needs congressional approval. but what part of it looks like a sure thing to go through and get passed and a sure trade? >> well, i think the least path of resistance would be, like, rural broadband. i mean, like, 5g for everyone. i think that, you know, there's other great needs. we all know that. the second railroad revolution, clean energy, etc. but i broadband, 5g, especially in rural parts of america, are probably the least path of resistance. so you looked at low hanging fruit like at&t and verizon. they'll be men fishery toes of that -- beneficiaries of that. artificial excellence, super computing would a

air force drove the processors and the national science foundation grant virtually all the major components come from u.s. government-funded programs including the microchips, touchscreen and even syria and alexa. u.s. government shared the basic technology and what we have now 30 years later is a maturing of a open technological revolution. an open technological revolution is advanced legal technology you know how to fully understand them and to help experiment and there's four kinds of users and professional consumers or pro simmers, hobbyist and regular consumers goes beyond military and civilian. they're causing broader societal change open technology is affected and affecting patterns of conflict especially in terrorism and insurgency, insurrection, mass shooting incidents and other types of individual and small-group violence. if you look at the history of warfare watersheds have resulted in a shift in who could use new weapons and show up to fight, not just from which side has the most technologically advanced means. i dug into historical examples especially dynamite and look to othe

air force drove microprocessors google built a search engine with funding from the national science foundation grants. virtually all the major components smartphones come from this government-funded programs including the microchip touch screen even syriana lexow. the us government shared these basic technologies and what we have now 30 years later as the maturing of an open technological revolution. an open technological revolution is advanced nuclear technology. you don't have to fully understand them. they are designed to help people experiment. they spread commercial processes and so abroad range of people involved. therefore kind of users, professional, official consumers, lobbyists -- hobbyist and regular consumers so goes way beyond just military and civilian. they are causing greater societal change reopened technologies are affecting patterns of conflict especially in terrorism insurgency insurrections mass shooting incident and other types of individual or small group violence. if you look at the history of warfare watersheds have resulted from a shift in who can use new weapons and

and rome is the lead research on that shark project and is also receptive sociate at the national science foundation of the university of laval he joins us now from brussels congratulations on your discovery sir let me start with that question why did these sharks go. well thank you for your comments shouted glowing because you know if you are living and are living below 200 meter 200 meter of deaths you still have to have seen a moment of light coming from the surface so. there is a bluish atmosphere of down there decreasing but if you are swimming in that blue each of muster and you have a predictor which is below you even east looking at the surface you will see the shadow of your body and only knows that the fuel is ready to choke you but if you produce and you can see it on the image new lights virtually of course you disappear because you are bluish on a blue light surrounding you and that's the main purpose of the sharks bonus and we believe that's. so i just want to ask because i understand that the this giant shot the kite finch i believe that the dorsal fin also glows do you have a theory

fair he's the lead researcher on that shark project and also a research associate at the national science foundation of the university of nevada he explains more about the significance of this discovery. shouted glowing because you know if you are living and are living below 200 meter in 200 meter that's used to have a stint amount of light coming from the surface so. there is a bluish atmosphere heard on the air decreasing but if you are swimming in that bluish muster and you have a predictor which is below you even each smooching at the surface you will see the shadow of your body and then he knows that the food is ready in picture q but if you produce and you can see it on those image new right eventually of course you disappear because you are blue ish unapproved light surrounding you and that's the main purpose of the sharks bonus and we believe we just just discovered a pattern of light emission the shark was known in a family containing some luminous stuff some new species but we didn't know at all that they are producing under the dorsal 'd fin and the reason why is totally unknown for a dis

the endless frontiers act would expand the national science foundation by injecting $100 billion intond quantum computing. this is also part of a larger china focused bill. congressmangallagher, let's go through this. i know how important it is to ensure that the u.s. is in the lead on many of these technologies because the chinese communist party has said it wants to overtake the united states in terms of being the super power of the world and doing it through technology can actually get them there. tell us how this bill leads us in that regard. >> well, if you remember, about a year ago we had ccp officials threaten to cut off the exports of life-saving drugs to the united states to plunge america into a sea of coronavirus. and it was a chilling example of the type of leverage they might have in the event of a conflict. and it's unacceptable for us to remain dependent upon the largeesse of the chinese communist party when it comes to critical technologies. that's what this bill is about. ro and i might disagree about the bill passing today. we are in alignment on the need to invest
