CEA, French Atomic Energy Commission
1
Public research organization created in 1945 with the aim of studying atomic nuclei and the applications of nuclear reactions for energy production, industry and defense.
Present activity: Research, development and innovation (2/3)
● Fundamental research in physics and life sciences ● Research on energy (future nuclear reactors, nuclear waste recycling, other energies without greenhouse gas emission) ● Technological research (information and health technologies) ► Close links between fundamental and applied research, between research and industry
Defense and global security (1/3)
● Education and training to share the CEA’s knowledge and know-how ● Technology transfer and involvement in the creation of companies based on technologies developed at the CEA
