The scientific community owes society explanations and knowledge sharing. As part of its mission, the
Académie des Sciences is committed to disseminating the scientific culture and, in this context, organizes public
session meetings, at which great scientific problems are presented. The
Delegation for Scientific Information
and Communications
, directed by Académie Member Alain-Jacques Valleron, fosters communications at the
Académie by means of its website, which offers open access to the general public, media relations, a biannual
Letter, meetings with the youth and twinning arrangements involving researchers, members of the Académie and
members of the Parliament.
