  2. Introduction

    Part 1: The Royal Society’s Strategic Priorities Science and Industry Benefits of Researcher Mobility Part 2: Funding Schemes that Promote Researcher Mobility

  3. Introduction to the Royal Society

    The Royal Society is a Fellowship of 1,450 outstanding individuals from all areas of science, engineering and medicine, who form a global scientific network of the highest calibre. The Fellowship is supported by a permanent staff of over 140 with responsibility for the day-to-day management of the Society and its activities. The Society has three roles: as the UK academy of science, as a learned Society, and as a funding agency.

  4. RS Strategic Priorities

    The Society’s strategic priorities emphasise its commitment to the highest quality science, to curiosity-driven research, and to the development and use of science for the benefit of society. These priorities are: Promoting science and its benefits Recognising excellence in science Supporting outstanding science Providing scientific advice for policy Fostering international and global cooperation Education and public engagement

  5. Science and Industry

    The Royal Society is committed to innovative science wherever it is found. The Society will work with all those doing science in industry, the public sector and universities. World class research and development in UK industry is essential for transforming innovative ideas into commercially successful products, economic growth and securing the science base.

  6. Year of Science and Industry

    The Society highlighted innovation through a Year of Science and Industry, launched in 2012. Brought together industry, academia and the public across a range of events: Scientific meetings Prize lectures Workshops Industrial Symposia Contributing to a better understanding of industrial research and development and to strengthen links.
