Centre International de Rencontres Mathématiques - Cirm Details
CIRM is quite a unique place. Situated right at the heart of the Parc des Calanques, a famous nature reserve in the South of France, the aim of our Centre is to welcome researchers from around the world. Scientists can work together, exchange ideas, share their knowledge and advance the key issues of our discipline. They can also develop ambitious projects with the other sciences and pass on their knowledge and findings to young researchers and doctoral students. A particular feature of CIRM is that it is a residential centre. At CIRM, a resident researcher lives in total immersion in his/ her group, sleeping, eating and working in this one place. We believe that this proximity is very conducive to fruitful exchanges. With CIRM's administrative and residential teams taking care of their needs, researchers can focus exclusively on their own scientific projects. Our aim is indeed to combine excellence in science with a quality venue. CIRM is jointly managed by the Société Mathématique de France (SMF), the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) and Aix-Marseille Université. The centre is a key establishment in the renowned French School of Mathematics. Its international Scientific Committee ensures that the best quality is reached in terms of conferences and other research events organized, the aim being to maintain the highest level of research combined with the best residential facilities. CIRM is already a successful venue, welcoming around 4500 participants per year and growing. We are of course very pleased by this! As it is increasingly solicited for conferences and other events of various sizes, new spaces are being created and/or renovated in ways that respect the local environment.
