The "Choose Europe for Science" conference at Sorbonne University aims to attract international researchers, particularly from the US, facing political and financial instability. Amid pressure under the Trump administrationâwith threats to federal funding, workforce layoffs, and fears of deportationâEuropean nations, especially France, are proactively offering support and resources. President Macron has urged foreign scientists to consider relocating to France, highlighting initiatives such as funding programmes and welcoming schemes like the "Safe Place for Science" to bolster academic freedoms and reinforce European strategic interests in science.
The conference "Choose Europe for Science" reflects a significant opportunity for European universities to attract disheartened American researchers amidst rising pressures in the US.
The push for academic freedom and stability resonates strongly as Macron emphasizes the need for Europe to defend its strategic interests and promote universal values.
