Friends of the Institute for Advanced Study are partners in the advancement of the highest level research and scholarship and, as such, are encouraged to participate in the intellectual and cultural life of IAS. Friends have the opportunity to interact with the Institute’s distinguished Faculty and Members, attend lectures, symposia, and less formal talks, concerts, films, and family events, receive Institute publications and access our libraries and dining hall.
“Time and resources to pursue unconstrained research is of great value to future generations and in short supply around the globe. The Institute for Advanced Study provides leading scholars with the perfect environment to nurture fundamentally new research and many lifelong collaborations amongst global leaders in the sciences and humanities. As Friends and contributors, it is a privilege to support the Institute and the achievement of its farsighted mission.”
Cynthia Hillas and Robert Hillas, Chair of the Friends
Friends, who support IAS through annual membership donations and other giving opportunities, participate in an exchange of immense value, providing the Institute with significant unrestricted operating support each year. Such support is vital to the Institute’s ability to remain competitive in attracting the best scholars and scientists from around the world and to ensuring its continued role as a global beacon for theoretical research and intellectual inquiry.
