ISEM

Headquartered in Palermo (Italy), the Institute for Scientific Methodology starts out as a place for critical thinking and learning on the role of science in culture and society.

Its goal -- summarized in its slogan "Bringing science back into culture" -- is to act as a leading international educational and research center whose distinctive competence lies in its approach to science, learning and research which emphasizes the consequences -- for management, education, public communication --  of bringing science back into culture. 

The institute -- a consortium amongst the CNR, the City of Bagheria and the Sicily section of Confederation of Italian Industrialists -- conducts educational, research and cultural activities.

The Advisory Board includes scientists and management experts of international reputation.
