René Moreau (born in 1938 in Autun) is a French scientist and professor emeritus at the Institut national polytechnique de Grenoble (INPG).
[7] His main contributions concern the magneto-hydrodynamics (MHD) of liquid metals, a field in which he has supervised more than 40 doctoral students, many of whom have now become his colleagues, in France or abroad.
