Inserm has long played a proactive role in scientific outreach in order to share science and biomedical research advances with the general public. And this summer 2018 will be no exception, with its host of events in which art and science will meet, in which our researchers will participate in La recherche de l’art #7 in Arles, Binôme in Avignon, and the Science in The City festival in Toulouse. The diary of Inserm’s scientific and cultural events, which include a photography exhibition, play, and visual performances, is presented below.

 

Inserm and National Photography School ENSP present La recherche de l’art #7

Since 2011, Inserm laboratories offer photographic residencies to young ENSP graduates. La recherche de l’art brings art and science together to offer a vision that is astonishing, unexpected and always innovative. Philippe Rostagno, Researcher at the Mediterranean Center for Molecular Medicine (Nice) hosted Alexandre Kong A Siou; Sophie Nunes Figueirado from the Brain and Spine Institute (Paris) hosted Robin Lopvet; Laurence Doumenc from the Digestive Health Research Institute (Toulouse) hosted Amélie Blanc.

Save the date: The private viewing, to take place in Arles on July 3 at 4:30 p.m. in the presence of the photographers and Inserm researchers is where lens and laboratory meet. A dedicated publication has been produced. Galerie du Haut – Ensp, 16 rue des Arènes, Arles, from July 2 – August 26.

 

Inserm and theater company les sens des mots present the new edition of binôme at the Avignon Festival

A singular encounter between an Inserm researcher and an author has given us this play, which is interpreted by three actors. The reading, by les sens des mots, will be accompanied by an original musical creation. The result – sensitive, astonishing and often funny – gives us a different look at science and those involved in it.

Save the date: Bobby et le garçon X-Fragile, to be held on July 20 at 5:30 p.m. in the Cour Minérale of Université d’Avignon, is written by Sonia Ristic, inspired by her encounter with Inserm Neurogenetics Research Director Barbara Bardoni.

 

Inserm present at Science in the City, a general-public science festival as part of ESOF 2018 in Toulouse

  • The Inserm Occitanie Pyrénées Regional Office is a partner of the La science en taille XX elles project driven by the Femmes&Sciences association and CNRS Midi-Pyrénées whose aim is to promote female scientists, deconstruct stereotypes and inspire young women to pursue scientific careers. Twelve portraits of female scientists, including Inserm Research Director Emmanuelle Rial-Sebbag, will be exhibited from July 6 – 15 in the windows of Galeries Lafayette and in partnership with the Toulouse tourist office, celebrating female scientists who, despite having marked history, are forgotten or unknown. Meetings with scientists from July 7 – 9 at the Espace des diversités et laïcités with a showing of Inserm films “Gender and health: beware of clichés!”.
Save the date: from July 6 – 15, 2018.
