Science for Nuclear Safety and Security
Under the mandate of the Euratom Treaty, JRC provides independent expertise and support to policy, research, and education & training in nuclear areas.
The video shows an accurate, as-built 3D model of the ELSA Reaction Wall acquired with JRC’s Mobile Laser Scanning Platform (MLSP). The mapping system has been developed for nuclear safeguards verifications, but can also be used for many other application areas.
The EU Policy Lab uses foresight, behavioural insights and design to help policymakers map out the policy landscape and the challenges they face going forward. We provide strategic and future-oriented input through continuous experimenting and developing different methods and tools to make foresight practical for decision-making.
JRC Education and Training in nuclear safeguards and non proliferation
This course is since 2004 annually organised by the JRC and addresses the various aspects of nuclear safeguards and non-proliferation systems.
Scientists at the European Commission's Joint Research Centre simulate the effects of explosions on buildings, analyse innovative materials and contribute to guidelines and standards for safer public infrastructure.

JRC nuclear infrastructure
The JRC runs research laboratories for tests on structural materials and components for nuclear safety and simulation platforms, for the production of reference material and for reference measurements for nuclear applications, for the characterization of nuclear fuel and materials, waste management and nuclear safeguards and security.
The JRC enables the access of European scientists and institutions to unique experimental facilities, with a potential impact on nuclear skills through training and mobility of students and young scientists.
Infographics about JRC facilities and activities in the nuclear safety and security area
JRC supports the relevant policy DGs with independent, technical and scientific evidence in the areas of nuclear safety, security, safeguards and nuclear science applications. The JRC is also an active key partner in nuclear international networks and collaborates with international organisations and prominent Academia and Research Institutes.
