The New York Academy of Sciences (originally the Lyceum of Natural History) is a nonprofit professional society with the mission to advance scientific research and knowledge, support scientific literacy, and promote science-based solutions to global challenges.[3] Founded in January 1817 as the Lyceum of Natural History, it is the fourth-oldest scientific society in the United States.[1][4] The academy has more than 20,000 members in 100 countries.
The academy hosts programs and publishes scholarly scientific content in the life, physical, and social sciences, including several cross-disciplinary topics such as nutrition, artificial intelligence, space exploration, and sustainability. The academy's programs and publications are designed to discuss and disseminate accurate and timely scientific information to its members, the broad scientific community, the media, and the public. The academy also provides professional and educational resources for researchers across all phases of their careers. In 2020, Nicholas Dirks became president and CEO of the academy. The chair of the board of governors is Jerry Hultin, chair and co-founder of Global Futures Group, LLC.[5][6]
