Congratulations to Antoine Georges, professor at the DQMP, at the Collège de France (chair of Condensed Matter Physics) and at the École Polytechnique (Palaiseau, France), who has been elected to the French Academy of Sciences.
His researches are focused on the physics of quantum systems with strong correlations in various contexts, from materials with strong electron interactions to cold atomic gases.
During his career, he was awarded numerous prizes such as the Condensed Matter Europhysics Prize in 2006, the « Médaille d’argent du CNRS» in 2007 and The Hamburg Prize for Theoretical Physics in 2014. He is also a co-laureate of an ERC-Synergy grant.
