Section overview
Description
The Joint Research Centre (JRC) is the European Commission's science and knowledge service which employs scientists to carry out research in order to provide independent scientific advice and support to EU policy.
JRC´s scientific work supports a whole host of EU policies in a variety of areas from agriculture and food security, to environment and climate change, as well as nuclear safety and security and innovation and growth.
Its status as a Commission service, which guarantees independence from private or national interests, is crucial for pursuing its mission.
Addressed research topics give a deeper insight into that support of EU policy, while you can also discover the unique laboratories and facilities where the scientists work.
