Harvey Brooks, Dean of Engineering and Applied Physics at Harvard, was appointed to the National Science Board by President Kennedy last week.
Brooks, a member of the President's Science Advisory Committee, will replace Julius A. Stratton, president of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, whose term has expired.
