Governance of the Institute for fusion sciences and instrumentation in nuclear environments is provided by several complementary bodies that monitor, implement and evaluate the institute’s missions and activities. The institute’s executive office implements and coordinates the initiatives and missions of the Institute for fusion sciences and instrumentation in nuclear environments.

Our other strategic and operational monitoring bodies

Chaired by its Director, the Council meets at least twice a year to examine or to approve:

  • Changes to the institute’s scientific areas
  • Changes to the institute’s training initiatives
  • The institute’s multi-annual budget
  • The report of funding assigned within the framework of the institute’s internal calls for projects.

The Scientific Committee is made up of directors of the areas of research and training initiatives. It is chaired by the institute Director. The Executive Committee identifies and proposes priority topics to the institute’s directors for each area of research and training initiatives within the context of the graduate school. It also presents its report. In addition, it works with directors on the instruction and classification of responses to internal calls for projects.

Research area directors

  • Eric Serre (M2P2), Edge plasma physics and plasma-wall interactions
  • Yann Camenen (PIIM), Magnetised plasma confinement physics
  • Jean-Laurent Gardarein (IUSTI), Thermophysical property measurements and thermal diagnostics
  • Christelle Reynard-Carette (IM2NP) Nuclear instrumentation and detection: sensors, rugged electronics
  • Fréderic Lebon (LMA), Materials and structures: characterisation and modelling
  • Ceasare Mattina (LAMES), Human and social sciences

Scientific and Training Advisory Board 

In compliance with the practices of international research universities, the Institute for fusion sciences and instrumentation in nuclear environments has set up a Scientific and Training Advisory Board made up of national and international members who are external to the university, to support the scientific and educational trajectories of the institute as well as its European and international positioning. This committee reviews the institute’s annual activity report and gives its opinion before the report is submitted to the Institute Council and is finally examined by the A*Midex Advisory Board.

The STAB is made up of 6 external members:
