To advance fundamental research in the fields of astrophysics, nanoscience, neuroscience, and theoretical physics, The Kavli Foundation has to date established 15 research institutes at leading academic and research institutions worldwide.

"My goal in establishing these institutes is to support research at the frontiers of science. I feel that it is especially important to pursue the most far-reaching opportunities and challenges and to seek answers to the most fundamental questions. The Kavli Institutes will pursue science at astronomical scales - the universe; at the most infinitesimal scales - atoms and molecules; and in the most complex of all things - the human brain. I have selected these three areas of emphasis because I believe they provide the greatest opportunity for major scientific breakthroughs and will have long range benefits for humanity."
