PICT Events
PICT stages a range of free and public events in Paris—most prominently, our three lecture series. PICT Honorary Lectures feature well-known researchers who communicate their work to the general public. PICT Faculty Lectures feature PICT course instructors who introduce their research to a broader audience.
