Institut Charles Sadron News

To reduce the bias against acknowledging the achievements of women scientists (Matilda effect), a proposal was made by the equality referents and accepted by the laboratory council to rename three meeting rooms with the names of three well recognized women researches who worked at ICS (CRM).

Salle du Conseil : Madeleine Champagne

Salle E.272 : Françoise Candau

Salle E.288 : Françoise Reiss-Husson
