title: [Contribution of F.N.R.S. and of its associated Fonds to the development of medical scientific research in the French Community of Belgium].
abstract: Basic life sciences hold a preponderant position amongst scientific research supported by the FNRS and its associated funds in the French Community of Belgium. This status shows itself in training for researchers as well as in the development of research program, and even in the scientific influence of researchers in Belgium and abroad. An associated fund, the F.R.S.M., and "Télévie" are devoted to them. However, the financial means of the French Community of Belgium remain limited and are considerably lower than those of our neighbouring countries. So what is the future for medical scientific research in our Community?
