The French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) published this week its latest annual report. 2014 has been a fruitful year for the CNRS. With a budget of 3290M€, mainly coming from public subsidies, the Center sustained 1025 research units and employs more than 11,100 researchers.
CNRS tops both the Nature Index, which tracks the affiliations of high-quality scientific articles, and Scimago Institutions Rankings, which ranks universities and research institutions. It is also part of the Top 100 Global Innovators (Thomson Reuters indicator).
35,500 publications are being produced on average each year; more than 55% are cosigned with at least one foreign laboratory.
