* What is IUF ? (find details on IUF web site) : The mission of the Institut universitaire de France is to promote high quality university research, and to strengthen interdisciplinary projects. The members are selected by two separated international juries, since they must be composed by at least 40 per cent foreign scientists. So, it ensures a constant renewal and no one among the laureates can be co-opted. The evaluations of the juries are based on the scientific work (innovation, interdisciplinary projects, international reputation, and the hability of the applicant in developing a project of quality). IUF member status represents in total two per cent of the number of teaching-searchers of the French universities.
