With its new exhibition “Infiltrée chez les physiciens”, the Palais de la Découverte invites us to discover how is the everyday life in a physics laboratory. Thanks to female illustrator Héloïse Chochois, this so particular universe is unveiled with a comic book and graphic narrative. The exhibited plates retranscribe with simplicity the daily life the artist has been sharing with the researchers for 4 months in a laboratory. Gradually, we follow the adventures of a doctoral candidate until his oral examination or the sleepless nights lived by a female researcher in a Synchroton (an electromagnetic instrument intended for high energy elementary particles’ acceleration). This retrospective was thought out in order to present differently matter physics to the general public as well as the works of scientists. An event to see with your family, a few metro stations away from the Green Hotels Paris, the Eiffel Trocadéro and the Gavarni.

Exhibition “Infiltrée chez les physiciens”, from April 12th to August 31st, 2016.
Open Tuesday through Friday from 9:30am to 6pm, on Saturday from 9:30am to 7pm and on Sunday, from 10am to 7pm.
