Created in 2013, the Jean Morlet Chair is a scientific program that aims to welcome internationally-acclaimed researchers for a six-month residence in the south of France. The Chair is open to all areas of mathematical sciences and their interactions and to theoretical physics.

Programme of work

– Six-month collaborative work in residence with a local project leader based at Aix-Marseille University and a thriving community of mathematicians.

– Organization of one large conference, one research school, one or two smaller workshops and some research in residence events. Further opportunities to participate in Masterclasses and/or outreach activities.

This international programme aims to enhance synergies between academic departments and promotes links between established academics and early career researchers, postdoctoral students and PhD students.
