En France, on croit dans la science !

C’est pourquoi j’ai lancé le 5 mai dernier un appel clair et ouvert au monde : pour la science, choisissez la France.

Très fier de voir que cet appel a trouvé un écho puissant.

Une quarantaine de chercheuses et chercheurs de tout premier plan ont choisi la France.

Avec France 2030, nous avons investi plus de 30 millions d’euros pour faire avancer la santé, le climat, l’intelligence artificielle ou les sciences fondamentales.

La science a trouvé sa terre d’avenir.

Statement from the Nobel Foundation

One of the core missions of the Nobel Foundation is to safeguard the dignity of the Nobel Prizes and their administration. The Foundation upholds Alfred Nobel’s will and its stipulations. It states that the prizes shall be awarded to those who "have conferred the greatest benefit to humankind," and it specifies who has the right to award each respective prize. A prize can therefore not, even symbolically, be passed on or further distributed.
