Bienvenue sur l'Institut Polytechnique de Paris

With support from the French Defence innovation agency, CIEDS and CIMO are launching their new calls for projects starting in October 2026. The aim is to fund ambitious research projects in IP Paris laboratories targeting defence and security applications, which may be carried out in collaboration with academic or industrial partners.

Vignesh Kannan from the Solid Mechanics Laboratory (LMS*, École Polytechnique), Thomas Debris-Alazard from the Computer Science Laboratory of the École Polytechnique (LIX*), Alejandro Alvarez Laguna from the Plasma Physics Laboratory (LPP*, École Polytechnique), and Anna Korba from the Center for Research in Economics and Statistics (CREST*, École Polytechnique/ENSAE Paris) have been awarded ERC grants for 2025 in the Starting Grant category. Their projects concern shape memory alloys, post-quantum cryptography, plasma propulsion, and statistical sampling.

With the support of the interdisciplinary center Engineering for Health (E4H), Institut Polytechnique de Paris is launching a new podcast series dedicated to health and life sciences. Through these episodes, researchers and entrepreneurs share their work and innovations to tackle some of the greatest medical and societal challenges of our time.
