USERN is established in 1 January 2016; the basic statutes of USERN was drafted on 21 January 2015, but officially inauguration of the statute was made on 10 November 2016, the UN Day of Science for Peace an Development, after signing by hundreds of top 1% scientists worldwide.[1][2]

USERN is organized exclusively for advancement of authentic, ethical and professional scientific research and education and consequently advancement of science for non-military purposes and public good.[1][3]

Making international interdisciplinary scientific projects and providing a platform for more effective communication among young researchers and experienced scientists, all over the world, is a head of USERN's schedule.[3]

Membership

At the beginning of 2016, USERN started its official activities and after the first meeting of top 1% scientists, it has started to get membership throughout the USERN website.[4]

USERN Prize

USERN Prize is an international award, established by USERN, which would be annually bestowed to junior scientists or researchers less than 40 years of age for any novel advancement or achievement in scientific education, research, or serving the humanity in five scientific fields including medical sciences, life sciences, formal sciences, physical sciences, and social sciences.[4][5]

USERN Prize Awarding Festival

The closing day of congress and awarding the international rewards ceremony of USERN, the universal scientific education and research network prize or USERN prize will be awarded in 10 November the World Science Day for Peace and Development to 5 young scholars under 40 ages in different theoretical sciences (Mathematics and Computer), Physics sciences (Physics, Chemistry, Engineering), Environmental Sciences, Medical Sciences, and Social Sciences.[6][7][8]
