Vorlage:Coor title dms The Curie Institute is one of the leading medical, biological and biophysical research centres in the world. It is a private non-profit foundation operating a research center on biophysics, cell biology and oncology and a hospital specialized in treatment of cancer. It is located in Paris, France.

It was founded by Marie Curie and Claudius Regaud and recognised to be of public usefulness in 1921 The Institut Curie had been founded according to the will of Marie Curie, with its mission of medical treatment of cancer. In 1995, the Research Department of the Institut Curie was created. It is focused on fundamental researches in cell and molecular biology, biophysics and performs wide study in oncology and fundamental science.

The institute now operates several research units in cooperation with national research institutions CNRS and INSERM. There are several hundred research staff at the Institute. Institut Curie does not offer undergrduate degrees, but awards Ph.D.s and employs many postdocs alongside its permanent staff.

Institut Curie consists of several units, each of them eprform its own mission, but they work in tight cooperation to make reasearch and medical treatment more effective.

Institut Curie runs the Hôpital Claudius Régaud, a cancer treatment hospital. The Institute also operates the proton therapy center at Orsay, one of the few such facilities in the world.

Five Nobel prizes are attached to the Institute's researchers.
