Science Festival 2026

From 2 to 12 October 2026

The Festival of Science, a national event, will take place from 2 to 12 October 2026.

 

UMRAE set up stands and organised activities during the Science Festival at its sites in Nantes, Lyon and Strasbourg.

In Nantes: at the Université Gustave Eiffel campus – on 9 October for students and on 10 and 11 October for the general public.

You’ll be able to find out about our work there. Whether through the ‘Mission 17 dB’ escape game or a simple tour, you’ll learn how we study the noise around us.

 

In Lyon: I-Factory Lyon 1 Science Village – 8 to 10 October

A workshop on the NoiseCapture smartphone app awaits you. Developed by UMRAE and the CNRS, it enables everyone to contribute to mapping environmental noise. ‘NoiseCapture Party’ sessions will be held continuously: a presentation of the app, installation and calibration of the app on participants’ phones, exploratory walks, and discussions around the collaborative maps updated in real time. Alongside this, mini-quizzes to raise awareness of the effects of environmental noise will be offered to participants, as well as a demonstration of artificial intelligence tools for recognising sound sources.

 

In Strasbourg: The University of Strasbourg’s Science Garden

A stand run by the team of researchers and PhD students from the Strasbourg branch of UMRAE awaits you.
