The eight EIROforum members are: * CERN - European Organization for Nuclear Research * EFDA JET - European Fusion Development Agreement * EMBL - European Molecular Biology Laboratory * ESA - European Space Agency * ESO - European Organisation for Astronomical Research in the Southern Hemisphere * ESRF - European Synchrotron Radiation Facility * European XFEL - European XFEL Free-Electron Laser Facility * ILL - Institut Laue Langevin ==Major Activities== The EIROforum plays a crucial role to establish a European Research Area. It works closely both with the European Union and national institutions and actively participates in shaping science policy in Europe. The member organisations engage in cutting-edge research activities and pool their substantial expertise in basic research resources by interacting to find common synergies. The five major areas of activity are: * Science Policy * Research Collaborations * Outreach and Education * Human Resources * Technology Some of its major achievements has been to provide input to shaping a scientific research policy in Europe as part of the new treaty. In the technology area, for instance, Grid technology, amongst other IT technologies has been a driving force to bring closer collaboration on the sharing of a common infrastructure for the benefit of various fields of the member organizations; in particular: nuclear physics, astronomy and microbiology. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eiroforum」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
