Since 1981, the Fondation des Treilles has hosted high-level international research teams in all fields of science, literature and the arts as part of interdisciplinary seminars. The foundation’s seminars focus on original themes with a limited number of participants, thus encouraging exchanges and discussions. They last 6 days, welcoming 15 people from different disciplines, and including at least 2 young researchers.
The foundation provides you with the best conditions to devote yourself entirely to the project for which you have been selected.
