Program

This event will gather scientists from both the 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). Junior participants can apply for fellowships to cover part or the whole stay. 

Modeling the Ecological Transition

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
