OSTP Pick Wins Strong Endorsement of IEEE-USA

President Joe Biden’s choice of Arati Prabhakar as director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy won the strong endorsement of IEEE-USA, which called her “exceptionally qualified” for the role. Prabhakar's “impeccable credentials and depth of leadership experience” make the former director of the National Institute of Standards and Technology an “outstanding choice” to head the agency, said IEEE-USA President Deborah Cooper Thursday.
