据《自然》周刊报道,美国国家科学委员会于今年二月发表了一篇报告指出,美国的科学研究与发展的经费增长率已经降至每年的0.9％,是1975年至1985年间年增长率的六分之一。 但是《科学与工程指标》发表的一篇调查报告指出:科研人员正在加强与工业企业的联系以弥补其越来越紧张的科研经费。 According to a report in the “Nature” magazine, the U.S. National Science Council released a report in February this year that pointed out that the growth rate of funding for scientific research and development in the United States has dropped to 0.9% per annum, the annual growth rate from 1975 to 1985 one-sixth. However, according to a survey published in Science and Engineering Indicators, researchers are stepping up their ties with industrial enterprises to make up for their increasingly tight research funding.
