Chers Alumni,

Nous avons le plaisir de vous inviter à un dîner-débat exceptionnel organisé par le MIT Club de France, l’A-Ulm et l’AX, consacré aux relations transatlantiques dans la recherche et l’enseignement supérieur.

📅 Mardi 29 avril 2025 | 🕢 19h00 – 21h30
📍 Maison des Polytechniciens, 12 rue de Poitiers, 75007 Paris
👥 Intervenants :

• Thierry Coulhon, Président du directoire de l’Institut Polytechnique de Paris (IP)

• El Mouhoub Mouhoud, Président de l’Université Paris Sciences Lettres (PSL)

• Jean-Pierre Bourguignon, ancien Président du Conseil Européen de la Recherche (ERC)

🎙️ Discussion animée par :

• Frédéric Hannoyer, Président du MIT Club de France

• Philippe Huberdeau, Secrétaire Général de ScaleUp Europe

• Martin Andler, Président de l’A-Ulm, mathématicien, professeur émérite à l’UVSQ, ancien Président d’Initiative for Science in Europe

À l’heure où les universités américaines font face à des difficultés croissantes, entre fragilisation du recrutement académique et restrictions sur l’accueil des étudiants étrangers, la France et l’Europe doivent proposer des voies de continuité scientifique.

🎯 Angle de cette session :
Quels dispositifs d’accueil pour les chercheurs internationaux ? Quelles formes peuvent prendre les solidarités académiques entre institutions européennes et américaines ? Quel rôle pour les réseaux d’alumni et les partenariats transatlantiques dans un monde de plus en plus fragmenté ?

👉 Rejoignez-nous pour un moment d’échange riche et convivial, autour d’un dîner, afin de nourrir ensemble une réflexion stratégique sur l’avenir de la coopération académique transatlantique.

🔗 Inscription obligatoire (60€) – nombre de places limité :

Nous vous attendons nombreux pour cette soirée engagée, à la croisée des enjeux scientifiques et diplomatiques.

Please join the MIT Club of Puget Sound and the Tau Beta Pi Engineering Honor Society for a fascinating look into the impacts of climate change on mountain peak elevations and the challenges associated with measuring their elevations.

When: May 7, 2025 from 6pm – 8pm, talk begins at 6:30pm (pizza and drinks available at 6pm)

Where: Sinegal 200 - Oberto Commons (2nd floor): Sinegal Center for Science and Innovation, Seattle University, 901 12th Ave, Seattle, WA 98122

Our speaker is Dr. Gilbertson ( MIT SB '08, SM '10, PhD '14) an Associate Teaching Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Seattle University, where he teaches statics and dynamics courses, and an advanced controls class involving robotics.  Dr. Gilbertson will be discussing his efforts to survey the current elevations of the five last remaining “icecap” peaks of the lower 48 states, which are all in WA (Rainier, Liberty Cap, Eldorado, Colfax, East Fury). These peaks are melting lower, and so now only two remain as icecap peaks. This ongoing lowering of these peak elevations has gone unnoticed since no one had been measuring these changes. His findings on the lowering of Mt Rainier  (https://www.countryhighpoints.com/mt-rainier-elevation-survey/ ) were covered in a variety of media outlets in October 2024 (https://www.countryhighpoints.com/media-coverage/)

Dr. Gilbertson received his B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in Mechanical Engineering from MIT. His masters research focused on developing a safety valve for offshore oil wells in collaboration with Chevron. His doctoral dissertation focused on controlling underwater robots in difficult acoustic communication environments, in collaboration with the Office of Naval Research. Before joining SU Dr. Gilbertson taught at the Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology in Moscow, Russia, and at the Seattle Colleges.

Pizza and a variety of drinks will be available. Please RSVP by April 30, so we can buy the right amount of food. 

If you are an MIT alumnus, or otherwise have an account in this system, please be sure to log in before registering since this will connect your registration to your account.

Please join us for a FREE Boston Seminar Series event co-hosted with Koch Institute

Cancer treatments kill tumor cells—does it really matter how?

Cells can die or signal injury via several different biological processes or pathways, and research increasingly suggests that the particular mechanism activated by a cancer therapy can significantly affect treatment outcomes.

Join us as Koch Institute researchers explain how they are leveraging specific cell injury and cell death pathways to take out tumors using new approaches to improve immunotherapy response and target aggressive, metastatic cancer cells. 

Featuring:

Whitney Henry, PhD

Assistant Professor of Biology 

Michael B. Yaffe, MD, PhD

David H. Koch Professor of Science
Professor of Biology and Biological Engineering
Director, MIT Center for Precision Cancer Medicine 

Tiffany Emmons, PhD

Postdoctoral Associate, Yaffe Laboratory
