La Semaine du Cerveau
— 28th Edition


Place: France
Date: 16.03.2026 - 22.03.2026
Open to: Public

ABOUT THE EVENT
From 16 to 22 March 2026, the Semaine du Cerveau will celebrate its 28th edition. This annual initiative, coordinated by the Société des Neurosciences across France, is part of an international campaign that has taken place each March since 1999. 

It now involves around 100 countries and more than 120 towns and cities in France. The programme offers a wide range of activities designed to make neuroscience accessible to everyone. These include lectures, round-table discussions, laboratory visits, hands-on experiments, and interactive formats such as podcasts and livestreams. Each edition highlights recent scientific breakthroughs, invites the public to explore the complexities of the brain, and shows how advances in neuroscience resonate with everyday life and society at large. 

The events are aimed at general audiences as well as schools, with special sessions dedicated to pupils and students alongside activities for adults. A number of conferences and discussions are also made available online, extending the reach of the initiative beyond local venues.






The Day of the Map

THE EVENT WILL START ON FEBRUARY 4

The Day of the Map
— La République des Cartes


Place: France
Date: 04.02.2026
Open to: Public

ABOUT THE EVENT
On 4 February 2026, Jour de la Carte will bring together a decentralised, international movement dedicated to unveiling the democratic potential of maps and transforming how we relate to our territories. Across France and around the world, citizens, collectives, institutions and cultural organisations will synchronise activities — from participatory mapping workshops to curated exhibitions, performances and bespoke local actions — all spotlighting the power and politics of cartography.

Whether you’re part of a neighbourhood group, a cultural centre, a school, a research institution or a business, you can join in by hosting an “Atelier : Les cartes qu’il nous faut”, building a map-based exhibition from open collections, or imagining your own map-centred event. Materials and facilitation kits are made available to participants, enabling you to organise a meaningful action tailored to your community.

Through this collective mobilisation, La République des Cartes aims to make visible what is often invisible: the ways maps shape decision-making, resource access, territory and power. By turning maps into tools of engagement and dialogue, this initiative seeks to empower citizens to reimagine, debate and influence the futures of their regions.

Participation is free and open, and organisers can register their events to join the broader map day network.

ABOUT THE EVENT
Drawing on Switzerland’s leadership in astrophysics and engineering, the event brings together scientists, engineers and industry from across national and international programmes to align research needs and technical solutions for both ground-based and space instrumentation. 

Over three days the programme spans big-data, AI and automation; opto-mechanical systems, vacuum & cryogenics, robotics; and photonics, sensing and detectors. This gathering marks a pivotal moment for the Swiss exo-planetary community, strengthening the bridge between scientific challenge and engineering innovation.

La Pharmacie de l’espace
— Entre science-fiction et innovations pharmaceutiques


Place: Salle des Actes de la Faculté de Pharmacie, 4 avenue de l’Observatoire, Paris, France / Online
Date: 14.01.2026 (02:00 PM - 05:00 PM)
Open to: Public

ABOUT THE EVENT
This special session will examine how the space environment, particularly microgravity, is transforming pharmaceutical research, from drug stability and pharmacokinetics to in-orbit production, regenerative medicine and robotic laboratories. 

Bringing together researchers, clinicians, industry actors and legal experts, the event will also address regulatory, ethical and intellectual property challenges linked to medicines developed for space, and their potential applications on Earth. The session will be available both in person and via live streaming on YouTube.






Trésors et secrets d’écriture

Trésors et secrets d’écriture
— Manuscrits de la Bibliothèque nationale de France, du Moyen Âge à nos jours


Place: Cité internationale de la langue française - Château de Villers-Cotterêts, Villers-Cotterêts, France
Date: 05.11.2025 - 01.03.2026
Open to: Public

ABOUT THE EVENT
This exhibition invites visitors on a journey through ten centuries of french literary and linguistic history. Drawing on over 100 exceptional manuscripts, the exhibition spans from medieval texts to modern works, showcasing how the written word has evolved in form, style, use and expression. Parchement and paper, elegant and unruly scripts alike, illustrations, revisions and marginalia all reveal the physicality and individuality of each document. 

Highlights include scholarly manuscripts, autograph drafts, intimate journals, and correspondence from celebrated authors such as Mme de Sévigné, George Sand, Simone de Beauvoir, Gustave Flaubert, Victor Hugo and others. More than a display of texts, the show explores how manuscripts are both vessels of knowledge and living traces of personal, cultural and creative identity, reminding us of the value in handwriting, mistakes, revisions and the quiet spaces between the lines.
