Jerome Beaucour, Directeur du PAC-G
After 15 years in aerospace, automotive and medical industries, Jerome Beaucour joined the ILL in 2004 as head of Neutron Distribution and Instrument Mechanics. One of his major duties was to serve on the Millennium upgrade of the Institute, for the design and realisation of new ILL instruments and neutron distribution systems. He has led several major developments and recently the refurbishment of the neutron delivery systems and instruments of the experimental guide hall ILL22. In 2012, he was given an additional mission as head of the Industrial Liaison Unit with the aim to develop the societal impact of the Institute toward Industry. At the same time within the Institute for Research and Technology in Nanoelectronics (IRT Nanoelec, a 28 partner French funded private-public initiative on nano/microelectronics), he was nominated as Director of the Characterisation programme joining industrial partners and research infrastructures to develop industry access to Grenoble’s large scientific facilities. In the frame of a collaborative agreement with IRT Nanoelec and the Grenoble –Alpes University, he initiate and lead the development of the D50 instrument of the ILL, a very innovative facility for neutron imaging and reflectometry dedicated to industrial and academic research. He is developping since 2014 the Platform for Advanced Characterisation – Grenoble (PAC-G) of the IRTNanoelec in collaboration with ESRF, CEA/LETI and CNRS/LPSC ESRF, CEA/LETI: a new organisation offering innovative characterisation services to industry.
