At this time, as a result of political and economic changes, scientists and engineers in Eastern Europe confront new issues of scientific freedom and responsibility. The initiation of East- West exchanges to explore these issues promises intellectual and practical benefits to all parties. This project is designed as a planning effort; it will initiate such exchange and lead to further exchanges in workshops involving scientists, engineers, and other specialists from the U.S. and Eastern Europe. In this planning effort, a U.S. delegation composed of project staff and three Advisory Committee members will travel to Eastern Europe to meet with counterparts, four of whom have been chosen to be members of the Advisory Committee. The trip will be preceded by a careful process of preparation to develop a framework and agenda for discussion. This process will generate a background paper with review comments by four academic specialists to be circulated for feedback from the Advisory Committee members prior to the trip. The aim is to ensure not only that cooperative ties are formed by that knowledge useful for further research and for policy is generated. The institutional resources of the American Association for the Advancement of Science have already been used to identify and secure the commitment of appropriate key people in Eastern Europe. These are very good institutional resources for carrying out this project effectively. The outcome is to be a detailed plan for workshops to follow. From this planning effort and the workshops, reports will be produced to reach appropriate audiences in the research and policy communities. The proposal is a modest request for support to enable a well selected group to oprepare for an undertake travel to initiate East-West exchanges with counterparts in Eastern Europe on issues of scientific freedom and responsibility. The principal investigators and project associates are well qualified. The Eastern European representatives have been carefully chosen. The institutional support is very good. The project plans are good and have been developed with requisites for academic research in mind. Support is highly recommended.

目前，由于政治和经济变化，东欧的科学家和工程师面临科学自由和责任的新问题。 启动东部交流以探索这些问题，将为各方提供智力和实际利益。 该项目被设计为计划工作；它将发起这种交流，并导致进一步的交流，包括来自美国和东欧的科学家，工程师和其他专家。 在这项计划工作中，由项目人员和三名咨询委员会成员组成的美国代表团将前往东欧与同行会面，其中四名被选为咨询委员会的成员。 这次旅行将在准备框架和议程进行讨论之前进行仔细的准备过程。 此过程将生成背景文件，并在旅行前将四位学术专家的评论评论，以获取咨询委员会成员的反馈。 目的是确保该知识对进一步研究和政策有用的知识形成合作关系。 美国科学发展协会的机构资源已经被用来确定和确保东欧关键人物的承诺。 这些是有效地执行该项目的非常好的机构资源。 结果是要遵循研讨会的详细计划。 通过这项计划工作和研讨会，将制作报告，以吸引研究和政策社区中的适当受众。 该提案是一个适度的支持请求，以使一个精选的团体能够在科学自由和责任问题上与东欧的外交部交流进行旅行，以进行旅行。 主要调查员和项目伙伴资格良好。 东欧代表已被精心选择。 机构支持非常好。 该项目计划是好的，并且已经有必要构成学术研究的必要条件。 强烈建议支持。
