In this paper we describe some of the research into Coherent Synchrotron Radiation (CSR) currently under way at the Canadian Light Source (CLS).  We include an overview of the physics behind the production of CSR, and present two examples of research being done using CSR. The examples we present are Multi-bunch Interference, which illustrates the research into the physics of CSR, and Photoacoustic spectroscopy using CSR, which shows an important application of this radiation.
