Change in Institute Governance

Cédric Villani, professor at the University Lyon 1, elected representative at the Assemblée Nationale, resigned on June 29, 2017 from his position as director of the Institute Henri Poincaré (IHP). Patrice Le Calvez, professor at UPMC, will provide the provisional management of the IHP on the proposal and agreement of the CNRS and UPMC.

The IHP's Board of Directors commissioned Gérard Besson, a member of the board and research director at the CNRS, to set up a search committee for the next IHP directorate.
