Research is the vital expression of humankind’s most important qualities: curiosity and imagination.
Explorers, inventors, pioneers—dedicated researchers on the frontiers of science and the humanities.
Insight, when it comes, changes everything.
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.
