As a nonprofit, the Institute is dedicated to encouraging co-reflection and interdisciplinary collaboration through academic partnerships.
Over the centuries, the history of cosmology has evolved through models that either complement or contradict each other. By expanding our knowledge and inquiries, these models shape our worldview and our understanding of the forces that structure the Universe. In 1915, Einstein’s theory of general relativity superseded Newton’s theory. Today, quantum physics, with its probabilistic and non-local characteristics, challenges several classical concepts and revolutionizes our representation of the Universe.
Is science and the passion
to understand anything other than the effect
of the spur of knowledge that instills
the mystery of the Universe in our souls?
Open-Sky Retreat
A retreat in a magnificent setting in Switzerland, bringing together distinguished researchers from diverse backgrounds and disciplines around a common theme to explore.
