UNITING AND EXPANDING SCIENTIFIC INTERESTS FOR ALL IN ILLINOIS AND BEYOND

Illinois State Academy of Science – since 1907

Welcome

Our mission, from our founding in 1907, has been the promotion of scientific research, the diffusion of scientific knowledge, and the unification of scientific interests in Illinois. Beginning in 1907, we have held our annual meeting at varying locations around the state every year since. In addition, our refereed journal, Transactions, has been published continuously since its inaugural first volume in 1908.

Incorporated in our principles is a strong commitment to diversity, equality, and inclusion.
