Part of CTNS's mission is to promote the creative mutual interaction of theology and science through interdisciplinary, ecumenical and inter-faith research of academic excellence. The core of the CTNS research centers around its quarterly peer-reviewed journal, Theology and Science. The Center also sponsors the annual Russell Family Fellowship, bringing into residence at the GTU for a week an internationally distinguished scholar in science and religion, as well as the Townes Fellowship, which rewards promising new research by GTU doctoral students. The Center has administered a variety of grant-based programs in the past that were focused on research.
