The Center was inaugurated in 1961 as a state-owned entity under the name Nuclear Research Center \u201cDemokritos\u201d, following the coming into operation of the nuclear reactor research facility. The development of the nuclear reactor introduced a cutting-edge technology to Greece, signifying a major turning point in the development of large-scale research infrastructures and the first step towards the establishment of a national Research and Technology policy.<\/p>

In 1985, it has been renamed as National Center for Scientific Research \u201cDemokritos\u201d and became an autonomous Legal Entity of Public Law supervised by the General Secretariat for Research and Technology (GSRT), while preserving its administrative and financial independence.<\/p>

The N.C.S.R. \u201cDemokritos\u201d conducts world-class basic and applied research, for advancing scientific knowledge and promoting technological development in selected areas of national socio-economic interest. The Center also plays a pivotal role in graduate education and professional training and its unique infrastructure is employed for high-technology services to the Industry and the Society.<\/p>

The N.C.S.R. \u201cDemokritos\u201d has contributed significantly and in many ways to:<\/p>

\u2013 The advancement and world-wide recognition of the Hellenic research activity
\u2013 The development, diffusion and transfer of high quality know-how to public and private sectors
\u2013 The reversal of high-caliber scientific brain drain
\u2013 The provision of highly qualified research personnel to the Greek academic community as well as to the Greek Industry<\/p>

Research activities are currently coordinated by five (5) Research Institutes:<\/p>

\u2013 Institute of Informatics & Telecommunications
\u2013 Institute of Biosciences & Applications
\u2013 Institute of Nuclear & Radiological Sciences & Technology, Energy & Safety
\u2013 Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology
\u2013 Institute of Nuclear & Particle Physics<\/p>
