ScienceUS promotes American science leadership.  It has gathered a large body of evidence on whether the U.S. is meeting its goal of "maintaining world leadership" in science and technology  (S&T).  The evidence comes from:

• On-site peer reviews of specific fields of S&T, done through the World Technology Evaluation Center, Inc. (WTEC) plus the affilated International Technology Research Institute, Inc. (ITRI) http://itri-us.com
• Quantitative indicators of world leadership, documented in a series of research papers by R. D. Shelton, and others  Some are posted at http://scienceus.org/s/
• Surveys of informed opinion from the Pew Research Center, WTEC, and others

Findings have been communicated through:

• More than 80 reports posted at http://wtec.org There is a backup archive at http://scienceus.org/wtec/
• More than 12 books, which have links at http://wtec.org or one can search at amazon.com on "WTEC'
• A YouTube channel at http://wtec.us
• Most recently, a Twitter account, @IntSciPol intended to feed information to followers on U.S leadership of S&T
• ITRInews, a series of 50 monthly electronic newsletters sent to a list serve 1998-2003
