The Air Force is telling industry and academia: If you want to influence our science and technology priorities over the next couple of decades, now’s your chance. The service is launching a wide-ranging study of potential future “game changers” and best practices in each of its core mission areas, and it’s issued a request for information to gather ideas.

Dr. Mark Maybury, the Air Force’s chief scientist, is leading the project. He spoke recently with Federal News Radio’s Defense Reporter Jared Serbu.
