Comme c’est l’usage, l’ILL assurera un mandat d’un an. Il succède au CERN. Créé en 2002, EIROforum a pour mission de fédérer ces huit grands organismes de recherche que sont l’ESA, l’ESO, European X-FEL

The International Year of the Periodic Table is coming to a close, and thanks to Chemistry world we're ending on a song! Helen Arney and the Waterbeach Band – joined by chemists, science communicators
