The Society of Ordained Scientists (S.O.Sc.) is an international religious order of priest-scientists within the Anglican Communion.[2][3] The organisation was founded at the University of Oxford by biologist-theologian Arthur Peacocke following the establishment of several other similar societies in the 1970s,[4][5] in order to advance the field of religion and science.[6] Membership in the Society of Ordained Scientists is open to any member of a Christian denomination upholding belief in the Holy Trinity.[7] As a result, the ecumenical religious order includes individuals from the Anglican Church, Catholic Church, Methodist Church, Orthodox Church, Reformed Church, among other Christian denominations.[8]
