Today, NHRF consists of the following Institutes and Units:
During the last 60 years, NHRF has been an important pillar for the modernization and development of Greek Scientific Research, ensuring the country’s international presence and encouraging the outreach and the scientific development. Its multi-faceted nature, through the successful coexistence of Humanities and Natural Sciences Institutes, affords a unique advantage and achievement at the national level and increases its competitiveness abroad.
Moreover, the scientific excellence at international level, the enhancement of its research and educational mission and the effective linking of Greek economy and society are top priorities for the Center.
NHRF runs several educational activities addressed to researchers, students, teachers as well as the general public. In 2015 NHRF launched its first post-graduate program entitled “Bio-entrepreneurship” in collaboration with the University of Thessaly, whereas in April 2016 NHRF signed a Cooperation Agreement with the Hellenic Open University.
As regards Innovation, Technology Transfer & Entrepreneurship, NHRF is highly active towards these directions through patenting and licensing of the researcher’s work, service provision as well as the creation of spin off companies.
