Professor Sonal Desai was recently appointed to the Committee on Population, established by the National Academy of Sciences in 1983 "to bring the knowledge and methods of the population sciences to bear on major issues of science and public policy. Through its syntheses and assessments the Committee on Population seeks to contribute to the advancement of population studies and to the informed development of population-related policies. The committee also works to improve communication and collaboration among social scientists and policymakers in both developed and developing countries." ~ Courtesy NAS COP
