<dc:title>The Royal Society of Edinburgh</dc:title>
<dc:description>&lt;p&gt;The Royal Society of Edinburgh (RSE) was established in 1783 and has been based on George Street since 1908. It originally occupied numbers 22–24, which had been built for the Edinburgh Life Assurance Company (ELAC) in 1843 on the site of two terraced townhouses designed by David Bryce. It acquired number 26, whose corner-site façade is built of white Portland stone with a copper-roofed dome crowned with a bronze status of Prudence, in 1994. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;GLOBAL CONNECTIONS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The RSE is Scotland’s National Academy and was established for the advancement of learning and useful knowledge. It remains true to these principles today by playing a leading role in challenging, developing and sharing current thinking and ideas that can benefit Scotland and the wider world. It does this through harnessing the diverse knowledge and expertise of its Fellowship of over 1600 experts and leaders, drawn from the worlds of science, the arts, business and public service.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;ACTIVITIES&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Virtual tours, displays, artefacts, presentations and refreshments plus a chance to see our ‘Women in Science in Scotland’ photographic exhibition, featuring some of Scotland’s finest female scientists who are all shaping our understanding of the world.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;https://www.rse.org.uk/events/&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Parking available on George Street subject to normal restrictions. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
