The 18 Aix-Marseille Université institutes are the result of an interdisciplinary approach based on the university’s reserach units and faculties, as well as its socio-economic partners, to strenghten its international outreach.

The Institute for Fusion Sciences and Instrumentation in Nuclear Environments (ISFIN) fosters training and research in fusion sciences, nuclear instrumentation, structure, and the mechanical characterisation of materials and structures for fission and fusion, with an interdisciplinary approach, including societal aspects. Over the next 10 years, the institute aims to make the Aix-Marseille site the European reference for training through research on these themes, in relation with the international partners present on the site (ITER and the partners of the Jules Horowitz Reactor).
