Danny Spitzberg is (happily!) enrolled as a graduate student in sociology of science at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. His research focuses on prizes and the coming rumbling in philanthropy and science funding.
In 2009, he was a fellow at The Breakthrough Institute. His ongoing project, ‘Smart Deployment Policy’, is drawing lessons from past cases of technological progress to accelerate innovation and make clean energy cheap.
Danny works (travels) as a freelance journalist, writing about science and technology to emphasize the often obscured value to society of breakthrough science research(ers). He also co-edits and publishes Ox Family.
On land, Danny bikes. On water, he rows on the Charles River.
