Physics & life days 2025
The division Physics and Life of the French Physical Society (SFP) organizes its third annual meeting. This year, it will take place on the 2nd and 3rd of October in Paris, at the Institut Jacques Monod (Buffon auditorium, Grand Moulin Campus of the Université Paris Cité).
The meeting will cover a large array of thematics at the interface between physics and biology, from the molecular to the population scales, experimental, computational and theoretical work. We aim to gather a diverse community of researchers working in French labs to strengthen collaborations in this large field.
In order to stimulate exchange and learn from different topics we have selected four invited speakers, each will give an introductory lecture on their field of interest and a regular presentation on their latest results:
- Laura Cantini (CNRS, Institut Pasteur) – Integrative genomics.
- Pauline Durand-Smet (Lab. MSC, CNRS, Univ. Paris-Cité) – Plant biomechanics
- Sylvie Lorthois (IMFT, CNRS, Univ. de Toulouse) – Brain microcirculation
- François Peaudecerf (IPR, CNRS, Univ. de Rennes) – Soil bacteria soft matter
A fifth invited speaker will be announced this summer. We will have about 15 selected talks and we will host a poster session, both open for young and senior researchers.
Note that the meeting will start on Thursday around 2 pm and will finish on Friday around 4 pm for non-parisians to travel easily. Thursday diner, Friday lunch and coffee breaks are included.
Abstract submission and registration are open until September 5 on the registration website.
