Modeling and AI for environmental transition

Announcement

This event will gather scientists from academic and industrial communities to discuss and work on the modeling and AI for environmental transition

The program includes:

  • 1-week summer school (July 13-17)

  • 5-week research stay, working on projects proposed by academic scientists or industrial partners (July 20 - August 21)

The event takes place at CIRM (Centre International de Rencontres Mathématiques) in Marseille (France). 

Participants can register for the summer school or apply for the research stay funding (the number of on-site participants is limited). 

Registration

Please use the menu in the upper left corner to register for the summer school. To apply for the research session, please first register for the summer school, then complete the research session application through the link which will appear in the menu, and finally choose at least 3 research projects on which you would like to work through another link which will appear. Accepted research session participants must attend the summer school (registration fees are waived in this case) and stay for the entire 5-week period. Unless a special arrangement has been reached, meals and on-site accommodation will be provided to accepted research session participants free of charge; no funding is provided for travel costs. 

Topics

The urgency and complexity of the climate crisis call for contributions from many scientific domains, and the modelling challenges posed by the environmental transition call for inter- and transdisciplinary approaches, based on a multitude of data sources. At the same time, recent developments in climate science, climate economics, ecology, and other sciences dealing with environmental transition require stronger interactions of these disciplines with applied mathematics and data science to develop new models for simulating realistic scenarios, making predictions, and anticipating and controling risks. 

The CEMRACS 2026 will be an interdisciplinary event, focused on mathematical, statistical, financial, actuarial, and economic  modeling for the environmental transition, with a specific focus on the following domains:

  • Environmental and climate economics
  • Climate change adaptation and mitigation
  • Insurance and reinsurance
  • Energy economics and finance
  • Green finance, climate-related physical and transition risks
  • Ecology, biodiversity dynamics, agriculture, fisheries
  • Water management
  • Climate science
