general terms
This is taken from the website of a surgeon and relates to a course he gave. After describing course content and how it went, there is "En conclusion, beaucoup de nouveautés au niveau des indications et des techniques. L'apport de Cl". This is possibly C1? He then goes on to briefly refer to contributions by others. Does anyone know what CL or C1 is here? Input by colleagues? Deadline is 5 pm today CET.

Claude
(I wasn't going to post this as an answer but then it struck me that someone else might look for Cl one day...)
Having looked at the website, this appears to just be an abbreviation for the name Claude:
"L’apport de Cl. LE LOUARN est important ...."
A web search shows that Claude le Louarn is a well known figure in the industry.
So high confidence (though not 100%)

We don't tend to use abbreviations for names any more in EN, though they were once quite common, cf. Geo. for George and (curiosly!) Jno. for John (or maybe Jonathan?) and of course Frk. (and variants) for Frederick.
The only one that always sticks in my mind is Geo. W. Rowney, the original name of the artists's materials manufacturer.
"L’apport de Cl. LE LOUARN est important ...."
Also, if you've cut and pasted the text, it looks like an uppercase I or a lowercase L, but it can't be a 1.
