"The Czech Academy of Sciences (CAS) was established [in 1992] as the ... successor of the former Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences. It is set up as a complex of 54 public research institutions. The Academy employs over 8,000 employees, more than a half of whom are researchers with university degrees. The primary mission of the CAS and its institutes is to conduct research in a broad spectrum of the natural, technical and social sciences and the humanities. (...) The CAS is financed primarily from the state budget. (...) The CAS has also been assigned financial responsibility for 71 specialised Czech scientific societies associated with the Council of Scientific Societies." The website offers news from the world of Czech science, as well as information about the Academy's organisational structure, its institutes, current research, publications, and much more.
