14 international projects supported by CNRS Physics in 2025
The IRP and IRN campaigns aim, respectively, to support a collaborative research project involving one or more laboratories or to create a network of international partners over a period of five years. In 2025, CNRS Physics supports 14 projects to create IRPs or IRNs.
International research projects and networks
An International Research Project (IRP) is designed to support a targeted collaborative research project between one or more CNRS laboratories and laboratories in one or two foreign countries that have already begun regular scientific exchanges. It lasts for five years.
The annual funding allocated to the CNRS unit leading the project, up to a maximum of €15,000, is used to finance scientific meetings in France and in the partner country (workshops, scientific seminars, or thematic schools) and the mobility of the teams involved. A maximum of 20% of the amount may be used for other expenses. No salaries may be covered by the funds allocated by the CNRS to the IRP. French and foreign partners may also contribute to the IRP's budget.
Lasting five years, an International Research Network (IRN) is designed to structure a network of French and foreign partners around a theme on which they conduct joint collaborative research.
