International chairs

International research chairs allow well-regarded foreign researchers to continue their work on scientific projects, by implementing a new thematic approach to research and a new team, while strengthening the bonds among the Foundation’s laboratories

 

Visiting scientists

The Foundation is a site for scientific exchanges and the sharing of knowledge.  It draws to France recognized researchers who, during their stay, participate in the research programs conducted by the Foundation’s laboratories.

 

Post-docs

The scientific excellence of the laboratories within the network make the Foundation a center that is particularly well suited to the needs of young researchers seeking their post-doctoral degrees.  Accordingly, the Foundation offers grants, in order to:
• Allow the Foundation’s laboratories to expand their research potential in a responsive manner, and
• Attract valued young foreign researchers to France, or encourage young French researchers to return to our laboratories.
 

Ph.D

Through the Pierre-Gilles de Gennes Interdisciplinary Ph.D program, the Foundation's laboratories welcome foreign doctoral candidates and offer them all of the condition necessary for their training, e.g. financing, a high-level research laboratory and personal coaching.

The Foundation’s researchers

From fundamental to applied research, from theory to inventions and industrial development for beneficial use, from concepts to therapeutic solutions, the Foundation’s research centers form a unique scientific hub for the creation of international “seats of excellence,” while welcoming visiting scientists, young researchers, and doctoral students.

The 1,450 men and women with broad backgrounds and scientific careers, distributed among the 140 laboratories in the Foundation’s network, constitute a leading international scientific community with worldwide access.  These researchers are ready to work with industrial know how to which they do not currently have access, in order to derive from it the discoveries that will be tomorrow’s wellsprings of innovation.  These are the researchers who have the courage to face new challenges by leaving the well-beaten paths of traditional research.
