Blogging from the SSRC Necessary Knowlege Workshop.

I'm spending the weekend up in Philadelphia as a part of the SSRC Necessary Knowledge Workshop, which brings together dozens of academics and policy wonks from across the country (and around the globe). The workshop is a chance to hear about various research projects that have been conducted over the past few years. For me, it's a chance to identify academics who are investigating issues that are being discussed and decided upon by decision-makers and regulators inside the beltway. Hopefully, I'll be leaving with a rolodex full of new contacts and a briefcase full of papers.

Proceedings are just about to start...
