Today, the Academy, formed by scientists of outstanding merit representing the national scientific community aims to: foster Cuban science; disseminate national and universal scientific progress; raise the standards of professional ethics and social recognition of science; and strengthen links between scientists and their organizations, both among themselves, and with the rest of the world. Current membership of the academy stands at 167 members elected by their peers.
