NOMIS RESEARCHERS

The basis for all knowledge and discovery, research is the vital expression of humankind’s most important qualities: curiosity and imagination. NOMIS thus supports basic research projects led by dedicated pioneers who at times use radically different approaches, apply new expertise or engage novel perspectives.
