The Foundational Questions Institute, styled FQXi, is an organization that provides grants to "catalyze, support, and disseminate research on questions at the foundations of physics and cosmology."〔(About the Foundational Questions Institute )〕 It was founded in 2005 by cosmologist Max Tegmark, who holds the position of Scientific Director.
