Several of our researchers are participating in the Pint of Science festival, which is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year. It is one of the largest science festivals in the world. Until May 24th, researchers and the general public come together over a drink in 26 countries and 400 cities, including 50 cities in France.
Alain Sacuto
Alain Sacuto was a guest on the CQFD program on France Culture to talk about superconductivity.
The podcast can be found here and a short video here
Our laboratory was also well represented for direct interactions with the general public this week at Le Corvisart bar (43 bd Blanqui, 75013). Alain Sacuto took the stage on Tuesday evening, followed by Amandine Bellec, Sarah Houver, and Clément Barraud on Wednesday evening for three-person presentations.
