2 Les valeurs qui ont forgé la compétence du CNRS, sa crédibilité et sa réputation internationale La mise en oeuvre de l'interdisciplinarité sur le terrain La prise de risque en matière de recherche L'élitisme du recrutement La liberté et l'autonomie au service de la créativité du chercheur La conjugaison entre compétition et collaboration L'ouverture aux disciplines nouvelles

3 Les résultats qui ont forgé la crédibilité et la réputation internationale du CNRS Sur un total de plus de publications annuels du CNRS, 52% sont publiées avec des collègues étrangers, dont les 2/3 en Europe. Le CNRS est le premier établissement d'accueil en Europe des appels à projets de l'ERC, que ce soit pour les jeunes chercheurs ou les chercheurs confirmés. Il attire les meilleurs : il recrute près de 25% de chercheurs étrangers chaque année La reconnaissance par les prix internationaux les plus prestigieux : –En 2008 : Nobel Médecine (L. Montagnier), Turing informatique (J. Sifakis), Japan Blue Planet Prize (C. Lorius), etc.…
