The CNRS, France’s largest public research organisation, has launched a luxury biannual magazine for the general public.
Copies of the first edition of the print-only magazine, Carnets de Science, went on sale for €12.50 at newsagents and bookshops across France on 3 November.
The 200-page magazine was published by the CNRS’ own publishing house, CNRS Éditions, and has Alain Fuchs, the president of the CNRS, as its director of production. Matthieu Ravaud, editor of the CNRS’s public-facing website CNRS le Journal, has been appointed editor-in-chief.
