A letter to our global community from Academy President and CEO Nicholas Dirks
Published June 28, 2021
This month marks the first anniversary of my joining the New York Academy of Sciences, as President and CEO.
I think we can all agree that 2020 has been a singular year -- a year during which we witnessed the power of science to help us develop solutions for some of our greatest challenges. It was also a year when we experienced the extraordinary importance of the Academy. As we now begin to look forward to life beyond the pandemic, I’d like to share with you highlights of the Academy’s contributions, as well as plans for future growth.
