From Labs to Life: PhD Journeys Unplugged
From coffee breaks to career tips, students explored the twists and turns of the PhD journey with those who’ve walked the path before them.
Barrande mobility is the Franco-Czech Hubert Curien Partnership (PHC). It is implemented in France by the Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs (MEAE) and the Ministry of Higher Education, Research and Innovation (MESRI), and in the Czech Republic by the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports (MŠMT).
The objective of the program is to encourage the development of scientific exchanges between laboratories of the two countries, by promoting new cooperation and the participation of young researchers and doctoral students.
The call is open to all scientific fields and the projects submitted must fall within the field of fundamental research.
NB: the French teams should apply to Campus France (https://www.campusfrance.org/fr/barrande)
and the Czech teams to the MŠMT (https://www.msmt.cz/vyzkum-a-vyvoj-2/vyzva-k-podavani-navrhu-spolecnych-cesko-francouzskych-9), simultaneously. The projects are then evaluated by a Franco-Czech commission.
Application deadline: June 30, 2021

The Czech national team achieved an extraordinary triumph at the International Earth Science Olympiad (IESO 2025), a prestigious competition for high school students from around the world. The event, held in Jining, China, from August 7 to 17, 2025, tested both theoretical knowledge and practical skills across disciplines such as geology, hydrology, climatology, astronomy, and environmental science. In addition, the competition evaluated research capabilities and teamwork.
