Expert Labs
Expert Labs is a non-profit technology incubator intended to aid government access expertise from interested members of the public. Part of the American Association for the Advancement of Science,[1] it was formed in November 2009, following discussions with the White House Office of Science & Technology Policy.[2] Expert Labs is directed by longtime blogger and technology evangelist Anil Dash.[1] Initial funding of US$500,000 is from the MacArthur Foundation.[3]
Gina Trapani joined as a Product Director in February 2010.[4] Her private project ThinkTank has since been renamed ThinkUp and is now funded by Expert Labs.
