About us

The LIA Origins has been renewed for the 2013-16 years by the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the CNRS.

China and France have signed in October, 22th 2008, in Beijing, an agreement to create an International Associated laboratory called "Origins" in the field of Astrophysics. Origins activities include research on the origin of the matter and energy in the Universe, origins of the galaxies and heavy elements and origins of planets including those possibly hosting life. Its main goals is to favour and support collaborations between chinese and french research teams, in both science and instrumentation.

For Chinese researchers visiting France, LIA-France will provide the local support in France, and vice versa. Applications should be submitted to LIA-France and LIA-China respectively, for evaluation by the Scientific Committee.

The goal of the LIA is to support Sino-French collaborative efforts, especially in cosmology, extragalactic and extra-solar planets. Proposals should include: name, e-mail address, collaborator(s) in the other country, the nature of the proposal (visit, instrumental collaboration etc…) and its scientific justification as well as a description and justification of the financial support that is requested.

The deadline of application is March 15, 2013. Proposals should be sent (preferentially in English) to 698e4d959f92936a4f9a8e9699a19c679e969b8f9c6d8f8e9c5b8e905b909b4f6b6f9c4d7e969b695c8e6b 3WSQidYGgagm5PyBv2hygRnVV57zCGyq caesar Please enable Javascript on your browser to be able to see emails (LIA-China) for the Chinese applicants and to 2348074f594c4d2409544850535b56215a484950554c15525054544c532756495a5754154d5909253a484950554c07325054544c5323164825 fhfwEr9ihckpPUeSWHACZz2MT0HeV49v caesar Please enable Javascript on your browser to be able to see emails (LIA-France) for the French applicants.
