Life of the unit

The life of the unit is organized around monthly meetings including a scientific presentation by a member of the unit or an external guest. The unit also organizes each year a session of the weekly seminar "Les Lundis de l'Ined".

The unit regularly welcomes foreign researchers for stays ranging from a few days to 3 months.
