An international team has published a study in the journal Nature analyzing how the quantum phenomenon of superfluorescence appears in perovskite materials. The Irradiated Solids Laboratory (LSI*) is involved, thanks in particular to the work of Antonia Ghita, a former student of École polytechnique's Bachelor's program.
Eight start-ups supported by X-Up, École Polytechnique incubator, are present at the VivaTech 2025 Show, alongside 16 other from from the incubators of other Engineering Schools of the Institut Polytechnique de Paris, of which École Polytechnique is a founding member.
École Polytechnique ranks 16th worldwide in this ranking of 200 higher education and research institutions worldwide that are training the future leaders in digital technology and artificial intelligence. École Polytechnique topped the list of 13 French institutions.
The European Physical Society has awarded the Aflvén Prize to Michel Koenig, CNRS Research Director at the Intense Laser Laboratory (LULI*), for his contributions to plasma physics.
École Polytechnique hosted the 8th edition of Paris-Saclay Spring 2025, the annual entrepreneurship and research event on the Plateau de Saclay, one of the world's leading innovation and entrepreneurship hubs. Eight start-ups supported by X-UP, the École polytechnique's incubator, or stemming from its research ecosystem, are among the 50 young companies selected as the most promising on the Plateau de Saclay. One of them, Plasana Médical, is the winner of the Spring 50 competition.
The École polytechnique incubator is launching its 1st network events, Ecosystem Days, themed and open to all innovation players. On 30 November, the first event will focus on intellectual property and legal issues. We look forward to seeing you there!
