IBS will eventually comprise 50 research centers in the area of mathematics, physics, chemistry, life science, earth science and interdisciplinary science. Until now, 24 research centers have been established, each headed by an internationally respected scientist. Government’s investment in IBS is truly extraordinary commitment to strengthen leading edge sciences in Korea and great opportunity for the big sciences. The IBS’s strategty is simple to accomplish our goal: to establish a great research institute by recruiting the best possible scientists worldwide as directors and fully support them in whatever they try to pursue for long-term period. Our strategy comes from the belief that the IBS directors, who are selected by our evaluation system based on the peer-reviewers’ judgement, are the best persons to boost basic sciences to the highest level.
