The Polygone Scientifique (en: Scientific Polygon) is a neighborhood of the city of Grenoble in France. It includes a significant number of research centers.

History

Created in 1956 by Professor Louis Néel, it hosts at the beginning French Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) and CNRS.[1] In 1967, the Laboratoire d'électronique des technologies de l'information was founded by CEA and became one of the world’s largest organizations for applied research in microelectronics and nanotechnology.

Three international organizations are implanted between 1973 and 1988 with the Institut Laue–Langevin, the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility and one of the five branchs of the European Molecular Biology Laboratory. In 2006, the European center of Minatec opens on the polygon and in 2007 the Institut Néel is founded.

In 2008, the new innovation campus is called GIANT (Grenoble Innovation for Advanced New Technologies).[2][3][4]

In 2012, Clinatec is founded on Polygone Scientifique by the professor Alim-Louis Benabid.[5][6]
