Now that the election is over, President-elect Obama is beginning to assemble his transition team. In this segment, we'll talk about the key science-related issues facing the Obama administration, from energy policy to health care. And how will any of these issues fare when stacked up against the economy, financial recovery efforts, and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan?

Call in with your thoughts on what issues should make the top of Obama's sci-tech to-do list. Teachers, find more information about using Science Friday as a classroom resource in the Kids' Connection.
