A research station
in the forest
The CNRS is the owner of the buildings of the former military camp, spread over 3 ha of land and converted into 2000 m² of laboratories (25 offices), 2000 m² of outbuildings (animal husbandry, workshops, garages) and 1000 m² of reception (1 conference room with 150 seats, a restaurant with 200 seats, living areas for trainees). A team of technicians ensures its maintenance and participates in research programs.

One of the last CNRS restaurants in France
The Centre is fortunate to still have a “directly managed CNRS restaurant”. The CNRS restaurant thus welcomes not only the CEBC staff and the staff of 5 organisations present on the site, but also about 350 student trainees and guests of the various seminars organised each year.
The catering service is autonomous.
For everyone’s pleasure, Christophe Coiffet and Arnaud Viollet prepare fresh cuisine every day, taking care to use organically farmed food from the short circuits.

Ressources
The library
The library is an essential tool for students and researchers. Its mission is to develop electronic journals, to manage book orders and to collect all the scientific documents issued in the laboratory
IT Service
Due to its geographical location, the CEBC is completely autonomous with regard to its internal network structure and is directly connected to the RENATER network. On this network, the workstations are connected via copper cabling
Meeting Rooms
The Chizé Centre for Biological Studies has 3 meeting rooms equipped with video projectors and overhead projectors. It is possible to rent these rooms from Delphine Bonnet
Visitors, students
