High school girls from Georges Brassens visit LIRIS: when mathematics meets computer science!

On 11 March, LIRIS had the pleasure of welcoming a group of pupils from the Georges Brassens secondary school in Rive de Gier, accompanied by their mathematics teacher, Annick Chazal. The aim of this visit, organised by Aline Parreau and Isabelle Vauglin, was to arouse the girls' interest in science, and more particularly in computer science and mathematics.

The programme included a fun and interactive immersion in the laboratory's research themes, captivating demonstrations, inspiring exchanges, and lots of curiosity and enthusiasm! The pupils could discover concrete applications of maths and computer science through activities that think outside the box: logic games, creative algorithms and much more.
This initiative is part of a strong desire to promote female talent in science by showing that scientific careers are accessible, exciting and within their reach.
Thank you all for your energy and commitment. See you soon for new scientific vocations!
