The Simons Laufer Mathematical Sciences Institute (SLMath), formerly the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (MSRI), is an independent nonprofit mathematical research institution on the University of California campus in Berkeley, California.[2] It is widely regarded as a world leading mathematical center for collaborative research, drawing thousands of leading researchers from around the world each year.[3][4][5][6][7][8]

The institute was founded in 1982, and its funding sources include the National Science Foundation, private foundations, corporations, and more than 90 universities and institutions.[9][4] The institute is located at 17 Gauss Way on the Berkeley campus, close to Grizzly Peak in the Berkeley Hills.[2]

Given its contribution to the nation's scientific potential, the institute is supported by the National Science Foundation and the National Security Agency.[10]  Private individuals, foundations, and nearly 100 Academic Sponsor Institutions, including the top mathematics departments in the United States, also provide crucial support and flexibility. Jim Simons, founder of Renaissance Technologies and a Berkeley alumnus, was a long-time supporter of the institute and served on the board of trustees.[10]
