Historically, as the main Saclay site was the heart of French nuclear research it was called Saclay Nuclear Research Center prior to the shift towards other fields of research and innovation beyond nuclear.
The center has close ties with the Paris-Saclay University, being located on the Saclay plateau and active in the Paris-Saclay project for innovation.
