The New York Academy of Sciences
Inspiring Centuries of Scientific Progress
About the New York Academy of Sciences: The New York Academy of Sciences’ core mission is to drive innovative solutions to society’s challenges by advancing scientific research, education, and policy. It is an independent, non-government, not for profit founded in 1817.
The Academy achieves its mission by catalyzing novel public private partnerships to address global problems. It creates and empowers expert panels to solve scientific challenges, advise governments, create and disseminate new knowledge, and inspire the next generation of scientists.
New York to the World: The Academy is a membership organization, and includes with 27 Nobel Laureates and a score of CEOs and government leaders from across the globe boasting 22,000+ members across 100 countries. It is unmatched in its commitment to the next generation, with nearly 10,000 active students and postdoctoral members.
Contributions on a Global Scale: The Academy has historically achieved and continues to make seminal contributions to the world’s grand challenges. Its earliest work is marked by many firsts that have changed the course of scientific discourse and discovery, from seminal colloquia on antibiotics to HIV-AIDs, from the SARS crisis to the swine flu (H5N1).
Today, work has taken on a new immediacy with the Academy and its partners working to DRIVE change. Twinning its ability to convene competitors and diverse sectors — academia, industry, government and civil society — with its capacity to disseminate, the Academy activates research around the toughest challenges, builds scientific capacity, and creates innovative scientific enterprise with visionary governments. Among its most significant work:
TAKING ON THE WORLD’S TOUGHEST CHALLENGES
Combatting Malnutrition: The mandate for the Academy’s Sackler Institute for Nutrition Science is clear: Drive cooperative research and funding around nutrition science to solve malnutrition, a life threatening condition that affects more than a quarter of the world. In cooperation with World Health Organization, the Academy developed a global research agenda that identifies the most pressing gaps in nutrition – and delineates how to close those gaps. Now the Sackler Institute through unprecedented public private partnerships is creating the next step: Catalyzing scientific research to affect real change.
Accelerating Research to Fight Alzheimer’s Disease:
The Academy is helping accelerate new treatment and prevention methods to fight the growing scourge of Alzheimer’s disease and dementia, a growing global health concern that will devastate families and cause economic devastation to countries as their populations age. The Academy pioneered the Alzheimer’s Summit 2013 with CEOi and the National Institutes on Aging as a ramp up to the G-8 commitment to create new research models and funding methods. Its goal: Breakdown research barriers and competing agendas to bring new
treatment methods to market sooner.
BUILDING A KNOWLEDGE ECONOMY THROUGH CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT
The Academy supports the next generation of scientific innovation by educating and supporting scientists at every stage of their careers. Among its seminal programming:
Solving the Global STEM Education Crisis: The Academy launched the first Global STEM Alliance in 2013 to solve the growing gap between the number of students adequately trained for future jobs in science, technology, education and math (STEM). Governments throughout the world are joining the alliance. And with its partner CISCO, the Academy is developing the world’s first digital network for STEM education, further enhancing the Academy’s in-country programs.
Speeding Scientific Innovation: The Academy is ensuring the next generation of scientific brilliance. It has created and now administers the Blatvatnik Awards for Young Scientists, which recognizes and rewards the most enterprising scientific minds in the United States. Next up: Creating new partnerships to take this gifted network global.
ADVISING THE WORLD’S VISIONARY GOVERNMENTS ON SCIENTIFIC ENTERPRISE
The Academy leverages its knowledge, expert network, and neutrality to counsel governments on increasing their global competitiveness and creating public policy that will support and advance scientific knowledge and economic viability. Among its work, advising: the Federation of Russian on innovation, Qatar on the nation’s research priorities, Malaysia on science and technology assets, and Mexico City on creating an urban knowledge ecology.
