Discovered in the late 1970s, archaea are unicellular organisms with characteristics of both bacteria and more complex organisms. Once cast aside, advances in molecular biology and genomics have brought them back into the spotlight. In the laboratories of École Polytechnique, several research teams are exploring the scientific potential of these microorganisms.
Since welcoming its first Moroccan student in 1948, École Polytechnique has fostered strong academic and scientific partnerships with institutions in Morocco. This longstanding collaboration was highlighted by the invitation extended to École Polytechnique’s President, Laura Chaubard, to join the French presidential delegation on a state visit to Morocco from October 28 to 30, 2024.
