From page 99...
... At the same time, the Commission on Scientific Communication and National Security was created at the Center for Strategic and International Studies with the same membership. Acting independently of the Roundtable, the Commission had the objective of generating actionable recommendations for public policy.
From page 100...
... David Baltimore, then President of the California Institute of Technology, and Harold Brown, former Secretary of Defense, co-chaired both the roundtable and the commission. The roundtable was dissolved in spring 2005 and was reconstituted the following fall as the Committee on Scientific Communication and National Security, a standing committee of the National Research Council.
