Research in France

On October 7, the Nobel Prize in physics 2025 has been awarded to French Michel H. Devoret, British John Clarke and American John M. Martinis for their pioneer and joint work on quantum mechanics. This acknowledgement honours France and paves the way to the development of the next generation of quantum techs. And that’s even a double recompense for France, since John M. Martinis is also a French alumni.

The Erasmus Days 2025, which are days dedicated to the mobility of young people in Europe, will take place from the 13th to the 18th October this year.  The main objective of Erasmus Days is to provide information about opportunities offered by the European Union in terms of education, training and solidarity, in a six-day celebration for the whole world to come together and participate in hundreds of events celebrating Erasmus+ projects.

“Intelligences”, in the plural form, is the main theme of this year’s Fête de la Science (Celebrating Science), a popular and free event focused on sharing knowledge between scientists and the larger audience by giving access to sciences and innovations in thousands of events set up in France and abroad from 3 to 13 October 2025.
