The candidate must propose an ambitious program leveraging the unique capabilities of the ELT, whether in terms of state-of-the-art instrumentation and\/or scientific exploitation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n The deadline for application is September 2nd 2026 17h<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n More information here : https:\/\/shorturl.at\/G5ePT<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Transmis par C\u00e9line Reyl\u00e9<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n The workshop brings together leading researchers working at the intersection of machine learning, inverse problems, and physics-based modelling, with applications in Earth observation, medical imaging, and astrophysics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n More information on the website:<\/p>\n\n\n\n https:\/\/spl.ics.forth.gr\/titan\/news-announcements\/physics-informed-machine-learning.html<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Transmis par Jean-Luc Starck<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n The first \u00ab\u00a0Planetary Climate Models (PCM) tutorial days\u00a0\u00bb will be held on the 13th and 14th of October 2026 on the Sorbonne University Campus (Jussieu, Paris).<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n The Planetary Climate Models (PCMs) are a family of three-dimensional Global Climate Models (GCMs) developed primarily by the French community to simulate the climates of planets across the Solar System and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These two days are intended to provide new users with the fundamentals needed to install and run the Planetary Climate Models (PCMs) for their own scientific projects. The tutorials will cover the common framework shared by all PCM versions, including those developed for Mars, Venus, Titan, and the Generic PCM (used for exoplanets, paleoclimates and solar system giant planets).<\/p>\n\n\n\n The target audience is thus mainly, but not limited to, PhDs and Postdocs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n For practical reasons, we have to limit the number of attendees to twenty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We therefore encourage applicants to pre-register (by sending an email to ehouarn.millour@lmd.ipsl.fr)<\/a> as soon as possible. In your email, please briefly describe your scientific interests and the type of planetary applications you would like to work on with the PCMs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n The PCM tutorial days organization committee : F.
