The Leopoldina originated in 1652 as a classical scholarly society and now has 1,600 members from almost all branches of science. In 2008 the Leopoldina was appointed as the German National Academy of Sciences and has two major objectives. The first is to represent the German scientific community internationally, and the second is to provide policymakers and the public with science-based advice.
