Led by Razvan Caracas and supported by the IPGP in collaboration with the APC and AIM laboratories, the HERMES project has been selected as part of Université Paris Cité’s inIdEx 2025–2030 initiative.
With annual funding of €650,000 over five years, HERMES aims to investigate the formation of cosmic structures, planetary evolution, and the emergence of life, using cutting-edge methods spanning from subatomic to galactic scales.
This cross-disciplinary program will strengthen connections between research, education, and science outreach, and will help train a new generation of scientists specializing in the study of Earth and the Universe.
