Abstract

This article deals with regulation of scientific inquiry and its susceptibility to constitutional protection from government impingement. The authors provide extensive definition and discussion of scientific inquiry and examine two broad bases upon which a constitutional right of scientific inquiry could rest: The first amendment and an as yet unenunciated fundamental right of scientific inquiry.
