ResponsibilitiesScientists at the Joint Research Centre (JRC) carry out research in various fields to provide independent advice to EU policymakers and put science at the heart of European policies. Originally established under the Euratom Treaty, the JRC has longstanding expertise in the nuclear field, but offers scientific competences from a wide range of disciplines to support almost all EU policy areas.We work closely with research and policy organisations in EU countries, European institutions and agencies, and scientific partners in Europe and worldwide. Our core strengths are anticipation - providing the scientific underpinning for future policy initiatives; integration - linking scientific and policy areas as no single area can provide answers to today's complex challenges; and impact - assisting policymakers to track and assess the impact of their policiesJoint Research Centre website Direction et organisation Commissioner Ekaterina Zaharieva Director-General Bernard Magenhann 1 FÉVRIER 2026Joint Research Centre - Organisation chartAutres langues (2)Deutsch(904.35 KB - PDF)Téléchargerfrançais(862.31 KB - PDF)Télécharger Search for staff Transparence As part of the Commission's commitment to transparency, Commission staff holding management functions publish information on and minutes of all meetings they hold with interest representatives.
