SFI science provides insights into the problems of today which may allow us to mitigate the obstacles we will face tomorrow. Insightful, forward-reaching theoretical research that examines critical issues from every field of science is our philosophy. SFI’s unconventional approach to scientific inquiry transcends disciplines, a truly valuable commodity in a world in which the most pressing problems fall far from the concerns of traditional academic research. Please honor us with you generous gift to support the SFI Annual Fund, The Omidyar Challenge or our Education & Outreach Program.
SFI Annual Fund
The SFI community shares a natural curiosity about the world. We understand that advances in science are born from ideas and the best way to cultivate thinking is to allow our world's greatest thinkers to work together across disciplines. Every gift, large and small, helps break barriers in science. Annual giving is a significant source of funding for SFI and your support is necessary to ensure the sustainability of the Institute and the continuation of the dynamic and collaborative work done here. Donate Now to the Annual Fund.
The Omidyar Challenge
The Omidyar Fellowship aims to attract scholars from the social, physical, and natural sciences to spend two to three years as postdoctoral fellows at SFI, delving into the major questions facing science and society. To insure its vibrancy and self-sufficiency, SFI accepted a challenge from Pierre Omidyar, Founder of eBay, to create a permanent endowment in support of the Omidyar Fellowship. He has generously pledged $7.5 million to be matched dollar-for-dollar over the next three years. Your support will help us solidify SFI’s position as the epicenter for new leadership training in multidisciplinary research. Donate Now to the Omidyar Challenge.
