Reflecting and Researching
The Centre for Science Studies of the Leopoldina initiates and organises independent research projects at the Leopoldina and provides the necessary infrastructure. It supports the Academy as a research centre with regard to its current tasks and in the unbiased and critical examination of its history. It is the point of contact for fundamental communication processes and reflective approaches within the sciences and humanities and thus anchors scientific research institutionally at the Academy.
