Part of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, it was formed in November 2009, following discussions with the White House Office of Science & Technology Policy. Expert Labs is directed by longtime blogger and technology evangelist Anil Dash. Initial funding of US$500,000 is from the MacArthur Foundation.
