80th anniversary of the CNRS

Reference

EXP090722

Overview

The history of the CNRS is fundamentally linked to the history of science and scientific advances and that of how research is organized and its policy aspects. Since its creation, the CNRS has successfully transformed and renewed itself to help it coordinate, federate and support constantly evolving research of excellence. The 13 panels of the exhibition describe the major milestones of this history from its beginnings in 1939 right up to the 2000s.
