Nuclear Research
Nuclear science, technology and research represent the underlying foundation of all nuclear applications. Nuclear applications contribute in many ways to health, development and security worldwide. They are used in a broad range of areas, from power production to medicine, agriculture, food safety, environment, forensics, industry, and the analysis of artefacts.
Nuclear Science
Nuclear science and technology is the foundation for all the IAEA's activities. The Agency assists Member States with scientific advice, education, training and technical documents in many nuclear science areas, provides key nuclear data and helps them improve awareness about the wide range of applications of nuclear technology.
