Since February, Nice has been hosting a series of free exhibitions devoted to different fields of science. And this is just the beginning! These exhibitions highlight the work of researchers from the Université Côte d'Azur, CNRS, INRAE, Inria, Inserm, IRD and the Observatoire de la Côte d'Azur, whose projects have been awarded prizes by the Agence Nationale de la Recherche. The aim is to introduce the general public to the scientific advances taking place on the Côte d'Azur. During photo shoots, these researchers have lent themselves to the game of scientific mediation, presenting visitors with an object chosen to introduce their research topic.

Discover a multitude of fascinating subjects, from the basic sciences to the humanities, from geology to ecology. Immerse yourself in a portrait of the men and women who are shaping science on the Côte d'Azur, through the winning projects of the French National Research Agency.
