Fortnight events
CIRM strongly encourages organizers to consider turning their event into a two-week event. These “Fortnight events” are composed as follows:
– a one-week research school followed or preceded by a workshop. Financial support from Cirm covering accommodation and meals is allocated up to a maximum of 30 participants. The total support of « 30 » is committed on the condition that at least 60 participants are included in the event and accomodated at Cirm.
– The workshop will be limited to 40 participants. This program does not receive a dedicated grant from Cirm and must therefore be financed through external funding. In 2026, the cost of a week’s full board at Cirm for one participant will be approximately 635 euros.
During the two months at CIRM, a visiting foreign professor (chair holder) and the local co-holder must organize:
One conference (or thematic school) for at least 60 people
At least two research residencies (hosting a small group of researchers).
