In 2019 we will be celebrating the 61st anniversary of the Centre de Physique Théorique, founded in 1958 by Louis Michel. This institute is part of the Ecole Polytechnique research centre, widely acknowledged for its scientific diversity and international leadership, as well as for the prominent role of its members in teaching and outreach activities.

On this occasion, we would like to gather our collaborators, former students and post-doctoral fellows, devoted members and friends, who have contributed to the prestige of the Centre. A conference will be held on March 25 and 26, 2019 in the old Ecole Polytechnique, with a gala banquet on Monday 25, at the Maison des Polytechniciens, 12 rue de Poitiers Paris 7e.

Registration starts on Monday 25th 8:30 and Tuesday 26th 9:00 - Talks start on Monday 25th 9:00 and end on Tuesday 26th 13:00.

Conference venue Amphithéâtre Poincaré, ancienne École polytechnique - entrance from the 25 rue de la Montagne Sainte-Geneviève, 75005 Paris
