Connecting a Global Community
A breakthrough may begin in one mind, one laboratory or one field. But its meaning expands when it enters a wider community.
We bring together Awardees, grantees, fellows, Young Explorers, partners and institutions across disciplines. This community is built around curiosity, trust and the belief that knowledge grows stronger when it is shared.
Our goal is not only to support excellent research. It is to help insight travel.
From individual discovery to shared understanding
Basic research often begins with a specific fundamental question. Over time, it evolves into something larger: new knowledge, new methods, new collaborations, new ways of understanding a system, or new fields of inquiry. This is why connection matters. When researchers meet across disciplines, ideas gain new context. When institutions collaborate, knowledge gains new pathways. When insights are shared, they become part of a broader human effort to understand the world more deeply.
We help create these connections with care.
A community shaped by curiosity
The NOMIS community includes established scientists, early-career researchers, scholars, institutional leaders and partners working across the natural sciences, social sciences and humanities. People willing to ask difficult questions and generous enough to share what they learn.
We create opportunities for this community to gather, exchange and collaborate through research programs, partnerships, events, publications, films, lectures and stories, and we illuminate their insights.
Insight is our reward. And it is most powerful when it reaches others.
Making knowledge visible
NOMIS-supported research is intended to contribute to shared knowledge. Through publications, films, lectures and scientific storytelling, we help make research visible without reducing its complexity. We aim to bring audiences closer to the researchers, questions and ideas behind discovery.
We illuminate insight.
