Access to the IHP building - January 2021:
Throughout the month of January 2021, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the building of the Henri Poincaré Institute remains closed to the public.
Physical reception on campus will not be possible for several weeks, but our activities will continue in other formats in order to ensure the continuity of our missions: the animation of scientific research and its dissemination to the public.
Follow us and chat with us on social networks throughout this period, and above all take care of yourself and your close ones!
