The Institute for Advanced Study (IAS) supports research and creative activity in all areas of thought, particularly work that cuts across disciplinary and cultural boundaries. It does so by inviting distinguished scientists, scholars, and artists from throughout the world to one or more of the Indiana University campuses to work on specific projects with faculty and students; by sponsoring a number of transdisciplinary seminars/working groups on the Bloomington campus; by arranging lectures and other gatherings for sharing of/production of knowledge; and by facilitating the work of the Society for Advanced Study, an organization that supports the Institute and research and intellectual exchange.
