Founded in 1971, Claude Bernard is a university in Lyon focusing on science and technology, health and sport. It is named after the 19th century physiologist who developed the notion of blind testing in scientific experiments. 

The city of Lyon is in central France and the third largest city in the country. The spectacular Festival of Lights occurs every December as residents place candles outside their homes, giving the city the nickname the Capital of Lights.
