About Frontiers of Science

The Frontiers of Science programme is a prestigious series of international meetings for outstanding early career scientists, initiated by the US National Academy of Sciences in 1989, and which has since been adopted by the Royal Society and a number of other prestigious national science academies and organisations worldwide, including the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Japanese Society for the Promotion of Science.

The Society has co-organised 8 of these meetings since 2004 as follows:
