The Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies (www.fias.uni-frankfurt.de) is a newly founded institution dedicated to basic theoretical research in various areas of science. The Institute is meant to serve as a superstructure for basic research, bringing together theorists from the disciplines of biology, chemistry, neuroscience, physics, and computer science in a common organizational and intellectual framework. It is an ambitious independent scientific institution while at the same time bundling research activities at the University of Frankfurt and neighboring research centers. Scientists from FIAS and from Goethe University join forces to educate graduate students in the Frankfurt International Graduate School for Science. FIAS presently is located at its interim home in the newly erected building of the physics department at Goethe University. A new, dedicated FIAS building is under construction.
