Institut Charles Sadron (ICS) is a research center of the CNRS (National Centre of Scientific Research), associated with the University of Strasbourg, which was created in 1954 to answer the demand for fundamental research in the emerging field of polymer science. == History == In 1947, through the impulse of Charles Sadron (1902–1993), the CNRS founded the Centre d'Etude de Physique Macromoléculaire (CEPM, Centre for Study of Macromolecular Physics). This multidisciplinary centre including physicists, chemists and biologists, was dedicated to research in the field of macromolecular science. In 1954, the Centre de Recherche sur les Macromolécules (CRM, Centre for Macromolecular research) derived from CEPM was created and became the first CNRS-owned research unit to be installed in a provincial city. Charles Sadron was appointed director until he left for Orléans in 1967 to create a new laboratory, the CBM (Centre de Biophysique Moléculaire). His successor, Professor Henri Benoît took the leadership of the CRM until 1978. During the 1970s, after the departure of the biologists, the CRM developed two major topics of research: the study of the solid state of macromolecules and the study of their structure and behavior in solution. The latter grew quite rapidly thanks to both the development of light and neutron scattering and the strong collaboration established with Pierre-Gilles de Gennes (collège de France), Paris) and the Léon Brillouin Laboratory at CEN-Saclay. In 1985, through the integration of the research laboratories of Ecole d'Application des Hauts Polymères (EAHP, School for Application of High polymers), the CRM was renamed "Institut Charles Sadron" (ICS). The objective was to bring fundamental and applied research closer. In 2008, the ICS moved to its brand new building located at the Cronenbourg CNRS campus with the aim to promote enhanced collaborations with the Pôle Matériaux Alsace (Materials Science Centre). The successive directors were C. Sadron, H. Benoit, C. Wippler, G. Weill, G. Maret, J.C Wittmann, J.-F. Legrand, J.-M. Guenet being the current director. 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「Institut Charles Sadron」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
