1958-2018, 60 years at the “avant-garde de la science”

In 2018, IHES celebrates its 60th anniversary. The Institute’s scientific, institutional and philanthropic partners will naturally be fully engaged in this landmark event, but the objective is also to take this opportunity to reach out to a wider audience and share our passion for research.

Savant Mélange : la soirée de la recherche scientifique

Scientific events at IHES

A series of events, labeled “60th anniversary”, will take place at the Institute in 2018. They are intended for a specialist audience but will include informal discussions with organizers that will help put the subject into perspective and highlight its general importance as well as the history of its development at IHES.

For 60 years, the people working at the Institute have been its greatest strength. Great researchers who have contributed to the Institute’s success, but also artists and philanthropists associatedwith IHES, will have the opportunity to come together and share the thrill and wonder they experience with basic science.
