Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation

The Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) is the federal government agency for scientific research in Australia and is based in Canberra. It was founded in 1916 as the Advisory Council of Science and Industry, evolved to the Institute of Science and Industry in 1920 and the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) in 1926. CSIRO works with leading organisations around the world,〔http://www.csiro.au/en/About/International〕 and CSIRO Publishing publishes journals presenting the latest research by leading Australian and overseas scientists and covering a broad range of subjects.〔http://www.publish.csiro.au/nid/17.htm〕
Notable developments by the CSIRO have included the invention of atomic absorption spectroscopy, development of the first commercially successful polymer banknote, the invention of the insect repellent in Aerogard and the introduction of a series of biological controls into Australia, such as the introduction of myxomatosis and rabbit calicivirus for the control of rabbit populations.
== Research groups and initiatives ==
Employing approximately 5000, CSIRO maintains more than 50 sites across Australia and biological control research stations in France and Mexico. The primary roles of CSIRO include contributing to meeting the objectives and responsibilities of the Australian government and providing new ways to benefit the Australian community and the economic and social performance of a number of industry sectors through research and development.
, CSIRO is governed by a Board, chaired by David Thodey with nine directors inclusive of the CEO, all appointed by the Australian government. Daily management is led by a CEO, presently (Dr Larry Marshall ), with an executive team of seven. There are ten research ''flagships'' and twelve ''services'' areas.〔
=== "Flagship" initiative ===
The CSIRO "Flagship" initiative was originally designed to integrate, focus and direct national scientific resources. In May 2005, the government announced the launch of CSIRO's $97 million Flagship Collaboration Fund, which is intended to encourage cooperative research between universities, CSIRO and other research agencies. In July 2014, all research "Divisions" and Flagships were merged into ten research flagships.
The ten research flagships are:
*Food & Nutrition
*Astronomy and Space Science (including the Australia Telescope National Facility)
*Agriculture
*Biosecurity
*Energy
*Mineral Resources
*Oceans & Atmosphere
*Land & Water
*Digital Productivity & Services
*Manufacturing
In addition, CSIRO is a participant in a number of joint ventures, including:
*The Australian e-Health Research Centre — with the Queensland Government
*CSIRO Chile Centre of Excellence
*Australian Synchrotron
*Canberra Deep Space Communication Complex (CDSCC) - with NASA and JPL
