National Research Council (USA)

The National Research Council (NRC) is a part of the United States that provides expert advice and support to government agencies, industries, and organizations on scientific, technical, and policy issues. It conducts independent research, evaluates technologies, and helps inform decisions to promote innovation, safety, and public welfare. Established in 1916, the NRC leverages a diverse community of scientists and engineers to ensure that complex problems are approached with rigorous, objective knowledge, thereby guiding sound policies and advancing technology for the benefit of society.
