The Institute for Science and International Security (ISIS) is a nonprofit, non-governmental institution to inform the public about "science and policy issues affecting international security."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Institute for Science and International Security: About ISIS )〕 Founded in 1993, the group is led by founder and former United Nations IAEA nuclear inspector David Albright.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Institute for Science and International Security: Staff )〕 ISIS was founded on a belief that scientists have an obligation to participate actively in solving major problems of national and international security. ISIS focuses primarily on four parts: 1) prevent the spread of nuclear weapons and related technology to other nations and terrorists, 2) lead to greater transparency of nuclear activities worldwide, 3) reinforce the international non-proliferation regime, and 4) cut down nuclear arsenals. Furthermore, ISIS seeks to build stable foundations for various efforts to reduce the threat posed by nuclear weapons to U.S. and international security by integrating technical, scientific and policy research. As the effectiveness of ISIS was appreciated and recognized in the 2011 and 2012 Global “Go-To Think Tanks” rankings, ISIS was placed in the top 25 Science and Technology Think Tanks in the world.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Institute for Science and International Security: About ISIS )〕 ==Board and funding== ISIS's board consists of the following members:〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Institute for Science and International Security: ISIS Board )〕 *David Albright - Chairman/President *Michael Rietz - Treasurer, Lawyer, private practice *John Redick - Charlottesville-Albemarle Community Foundation *Steven Aftergood - Federation of American Scientists *Corey Hinderstein - Nuclear Threat Initiative ISIS has been funded by:〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Institute for Science and International Security " About " ISIS Funders )〕 Ploughshares Fund, The John D. and Catherine T.
