The vision of the GYA is science for all; science for the future, and its mission is to give a voice to young scientists and researchers around the world.
The GYA, founded in 2010, is an independent science academy of 200 outstanding early- to mid-career researchers from six continents who are selected from across disciplines based on their academic excellence and commitment to engage with society.
GYA members serve five-year terms, and the GYA counts members and alumni from more than 100 countries. The GYA administrative Office is hosted at the German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina.
The wide array of GYA activities are supported by a range of international public and private funders, including the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research and the German State of Saxony-Anhalt.
