The Carlton House Terrace campus is the historic headquarters of The Royal Society, the United Kingdom's national academy of sciences, dedicated to recognising excellence in science and supporting groundbreaking research. While primarily an administrative and event-hosting venue, it facilitates a wide array of scientific activities, including lectures, seminars, policy forums, and award ceremonies that advance knowledge across disciplines. The campus houses the Society's library, archives, and publishing operations, serving as a hub for the global scientific community.
This campus plays a pivotal role in the Society's mission, hosting prestigious events such as the Royal Society Summer Science Exhibition and medal lectures. It embodies centuries of scientific heritage, from Newton to modern Nobel laureates, and continues to shape the UK's scientific landscape through its commitment to open inquiry and international collaboration.
