The National Institute for Mathematical Sciences (NIMS; Korean: 국가수리과학연구소) is a Korean government-funded mathematics research institute. Their work focuses both basic research and applied mathematics with industrial and medical applications.[1] Founded in 2005,[2] NIMS became an affiliated research institute of the Institute for Basic Science in 2012.[3] After delays for multiple years,[4] relocation is planned for late 2023.[5] The vision of NIMS is to "attain a global top 10 competitiveness in industrial mathematics research by 2028".[6]
