Participants get a chance to benefit from the special close environment of CIRM to get to know each other well before moving on to Paris where they are housed in various places in the city. This special collaboration with Institut Henri Poincaré is one of the many initiatives set up to reinforce close cooperation links between the infrastructures devoted to mathematics in France.
Applications are first considered by IHP then evaluated by CIRM’s Scientific Committee.
