The ''Klaus Tschira Stiftung'' (KTS) a German Foundation was established by the physicist Klaus Tschira in 1995 as a non-profit organization. Its primary objective is to support projects in natural and computer sciences as well as mathematics. The KTS places strong emphasis on the public understanding in these fields. Klaus Tschira’s commitment to this objective was honored in 1999 with the "Deutscher Stifterpreis" by the German National Academic Foundation (German: Studienstiftung). The KTS is located at the Villa Bosch in Heidelberg, Germany, the former residence of Nobel Prize laureate for chemistry Carl Bosch (1874–1940). ==Activities== The foundation mainly sets off academic and non-profit, non-academic research projects in the fields described above. It also supports teaching and research at public and private universities as well as projects with children and young people. Its main goal is to arouse public appreciation for natural sciences, to practice research for the society and to present science in an understandable way for laymen. Furthermore, upon application, the foundation supports projects which answer the mission of the foundation. The main dedication of the organization is described by three fields: *Fascinating Sciences *Research For The Society *Understandable Science. The Heidelberg Laureate Forum Foundation (HLFF) was established by the Klaus Tschira Stiftung in 2013. The HLFF organizes the Heidelberg Laureate Forum (HLF), an annual event, which gives a select group of young researchers the opportunity to meet some of the pre-eminent scientists from the fields of mathematics and computer science in Heidelberg. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Klaus Tschira Foundation」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
