Independent by purpose.
Scientific by foundation.

Co-founded by Sandro Salsano and a group of scientists and PhD researchers, the Institute brings a scientific perspective to two fundamental areas of human wellbeing.

Supported by an initial pledge from the Salsano family, the Institute focuses on chronic disease and free access to education, with offices in Washington, D.C. and London.
