Nancay radiotelescope is involved in high precision timing since 20 years. Since 2004, a coherent dedispersion instrumentation enables numerous routine observations on more than 200 pulsars using half of the time if this 100-meters class radiotelescope. Two main programs are currently conducted. A large set of young and old pulsars is timed for a multi-wavelength approach, complementary to the very successful high energy observations of pulsars done by FERMI. A set of highly stable millisecond pulsars is monitored as our contribution to the European Pulsar Timing Array in order to probe the cosmological Gravitational Wave Background.
