Proper Citation: John Templeton Foundation (RRID:SCR_006092)

Description: The John Templeton Foundation serves as a philanthropic catalyst for discoveries relating to the Big Questions of human purpose and ultimate reality. We support research on subjects ranging from complexity, evolution, and infinity to creativity, forgiveness, love, and free will. We encourage civil, informed dialogue among scientists, philosophers, and theologians and between such experts and the public at large, for the purposes of definitional clarity and new insights. Our vision is derived from the late Sir John Templeton''s optimism about the possibility of acquiring new spiritual information and from his commitment to rigorous scientific research and related scholarship. The Foundation''s motto, How little we know, how eager to learn, exemplifies our support for open-minded inquiry and our hope for advancing human progress through breakthrough discoveries. Our Core Funding Areas cover the full range of the Foundation''s activities and grantmaking. Science and the Big Questions is the largest of these Core Funding Areas and is further divided into several subfields. The descriptions and illustrative grants attached to the Core Funding Areas are not meant to be exhaustive, but they should give potential applicants a general understanding of the sorts of activities that the Foundation does and does not fund. Core Funding Areas: * Science and the Big Questions ** Mathematical and Physical Sciences ** Life Sciences ** Human Sciences ** Philosophy and Theology ** Science in Dialogue * Character Development * Freedom and Free Enterprise * Exceptional Cognitive Talent and Genius * Genetics
