    Identifier Return Reference Explanation
    SUPPORT FOR BASIC RESEARCH SUPPORT FOR BASIC RESEARCH PART IX-A, LINE 1 The Foundation believes that a carefully reasoned and systematic understanding of the forces of nature and society, when applied inventively and wisely, can lead to a better world for all. Grantmaking initiatives in STEM Research seek to expand that understanding by funding original, high-quality research in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Also funded through this area are programs that examine the ethical and societal risks associated with the pursuit of scientific knowledge and regulatory measures designed to mitigate those risks.
    SUPPORT FOR Economic Performance and Quality of Life SUPPORT FOR Economic Performance and Quality of Life PART IX-A, LINE 2 The Alfred P. Sloan Foundation believes that a theory-based, empirically-tested understanding of the U.S. economy and the U.S. workforce is essential to improving the lives of all Americans. In this program area, the Foundation funds grants to support high-quality research and programs to enhance U.S. economic performance and the quality of American life.
    SUPPORT FOR Public Understanding of Science SUPPORT FOR Public Understanding of Science PART IX-A, LINE 3 Grantmaking in this program aims to enhance people's lives by providing a better understanding of the increasingly scientific and technological environment in which we live, and to convey some of the challenges and rewards of the scientific and technological enterprise and of the lives of the men and women who undertake it. The program supports the use of books, film, radio, television, theater, and other efforts to reach a wide general audience.
    Selected National Issues Selected National Issues PART IX-A, LINE 4 The Alfred P. Sloan Foundation recognizes that there are select opportunities outside of science, education and economics in which it can create an important benefit to society. Its National Issues program area looks for unique opportunities where Foundation funds promise to advance a significant national interest.
    SUMMARY OF DIRECT CHARITABLE ACTIVITIES SUMMARY OF DIRECT CHARITABLE ACTIVITIES PART IX-A During the course of the year, the Foundation conducts a number of conferences and seminars in line with its program interests. In addition, it also publish and disseminate the results of such research, reports of educational conferences, or similar educational material through its grantees.
