A total of 30 mixed-gender teams (150 participants) will hit the trails in Savoie and Chartreuse for a grueling 160 km route with an elevation gain of 5,500 […] >>

Here’s something you might not have known: Leti provided an irreplaceable component to help the Rosetta space mission analyze the gases that make up comets. The adventure began in 1998, when the University of Bern asked Leti to come up with a microtip cathode for a pressure gauge to equip the mission’s COPS, or comet […] >>

IRT Nanoelec is rolling out a new strategy for 2015–2017 with three main pillars. One of the pillars is career placement for PhDs in electronics. IRT Nanoelec will be working with Grenoble-Alps University’s Doctoral School using data from the Employment Observatory to come up with a more accurate picture of PhDs’ prospects. The goal is […] >>
