(C) 1996. V. Stefan.

The progress of science presupposes the possibility of unrestricted communication of all results and judgments--freedom of expression and instruction in all realms of intellectual endeavor. The freedom of communication is indispensable for development and extension of scientific knowledge. Such an ideal must be sought unremittingly if scientific thought, and philosophical and creative thinking in general, are to be advanced as far as possible.

Albert EINSTEIN


The F S R C is operated by the La Jolla International School of Science jointly with The Institute for Advanced Physics Studies, La Jolla, California.

The F S R C is a division of The Stefan University - financially and operationaly autonomous.



La Jolla International 
School of Science


The Institute for Advanced 
Physics Studies


The F S R C is founded in 1989 by V. Stefan with the ultimate goal:
  • promotion, nurture and further advancement of the best scientific research worldwide
  • achievement of the highest level in organization of scientific meetings in all areas of science and technology and all crossdisciplinary areas: science arts and science-humanities
  • publishing of edited conference materials to promote and diffuse the first-rate scientific achievements worldwide
