This year’s winners of the Scientific Mediation Medal are the physicist Julien Bobroff, the mathematician Étienne Ghys, the engineer Caroline Scheurle and the members of CNRS’s Institut des sciences de l'information et de leurs interactions (INS2I) Parity and Equality Unit for the comic book “Les décodeuses du numérique” (The Codebreakhers of the Digital World). The special Scientific Mediation Prize was awarded to the immunologist Jean Claude Ameisen for his programme “Sur les épaules de Darwin” (On The Shoulders of Darwin).
Our work is guided by the way scientists question the world around them and we translate their research into images to help people to understand the world better and to awaken their curiosity and wonderment.
