Institut Curie

Research center for biophysics, cell biology and oncology and a hospital specialized in treatment of cancer

In the bylaws of the foundation known as Institut Curie, we propose the development of the following, in the interests of science and of patients, via close interdisciplinary cooperation among staff:

  • • Basic scientific, translational and clinical research in physics, chemistry, biology and radiobiology, to put science to work for people and to help fight diseases, in particular cancer.
  • • Diagnostics, follow-up and care given to patients within a hospital group assimilated with a cancer research center, belonging to the Unicancer federation.
  • • Development of research and access to innovation, which requires Institut Curie to forge ties with economic players that will help develop innovations to assist patients and/or to improve scientific knowledge.
  • • Preservation and transfer of knowledge in the aforementioned areas, in particular through teaching and museology activities.

For Institut Curie, teaching is a function that’s inseparable from research and treatment, and as such is fully part of the foundation's social missions. For the preservation of knowledge, Institut Curie is the keeper of the work conducted by the Curie and Joliot-Curie families, and has a duty to pass on the history of this work to a broad audience.
