The Doctoral School Day is a highlight in the life of the laboratories that make it up. It will take place on May 20, 2026.

This year, Stéphane BONELLI, INRAE Research Director at the RECOVER laboratory, will honor us with his presence and open the day with a lecture on the Physics of erosion processes causing flood risk. Its research, teaching and consulting activities focus on internal and surface erosion, through numerical modeling, laboratory tests and ground observations.
He is part of the CFBR since 1998, which is the French comitee of dams and reservoirs, and president since 2012 of the international work group Eurcold (ICOLD European Club) on internal erosion in dams and dikes.

This opening lecture will be followed by presentations of the doctoral students' research.

The day is also a unique opportunity to forge new collaborations, learn about the diversity of the laboratories' themes, build or strengthen your network and, last but not least, share a convivial moment over a buffet provided by the doctoral school.

The organizing committee will award the three best presentations (abstract, oral presentation and poster) with prizes of €300, €200 and €100.

The schedule for the day is detailed in the Program tab. The order of presentations will be announced after the closure of submissions.

Whether you are visitor or you want to present your work, first connect to your "SciencesConf" account and go to the "Register" tab. If you do not have any "SciencesConf" account, click on the arrow at the right of the "Login" button to create an account.

If you wish to present your work, you have to submit an abstract in the tab "Submission: abstract - presentation - poster". Be careful to taylor your text for all the ED 353 research staff, who are carrying researches on different reseach topics. You will have to submit your presentation as well as your poster in this same tab.

Please indicate your laboratory affiliation and co-authors when you submit your abstract.

The abstract, presentation and poster must be reviewed by the thesis supervisor prior to being submitted to the website.

Abstracts, presentations and posters must be in English, in order to reach as many people as possible. However, oral presentations and poster sessions can be given in either French or English.

NB: Each participant must print their poster sufficiently in advance (take care of manufacturing and delivery delays which can be up to 2 weeks). We recommand using the print service of AMU, accessible throught the work digital environment and to ask your laboratory manager for payment.
