1. Bilan AAP 2026 — Action Thématique Cosmologie et Galaxies
—————————————————————————————-
Comme chaque année, l’ATCG publie sur son site web le bilan de l’AAP de l’année en cours, ainsi que la liste des projets financés : https://atcg.lam.fr/appel-a-projet-2026/
Le Comité d’Expertise Scientifique (CES) de l’ATCG souhaite souligner la très grande qualité de l’ensemble des projets soumis à l’AAP 2026. Néanmoins, compte tenu de la forte pression, il n’a pas été possible de financer toutes les demandes. En vue de l’AAP 2027, l’ATCG encourage vivement l’ensemble de la communauté à soumettre des projets. Si cette sélectivité peut parfois susciter un sentiment de découragement, il est important de maintenir un haut niveau de compétitivité, en particulier car celui-ci jouant un rôle déterminant dans la répartition des financements du PNAstro entre ses différentes Actions Thématiques.

2. Post-Doctoral Researcher Positions in Application of Simulation-based inference to Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics (LAPTh/Annecy)
—————————————————————————————-
The Laboratoire d’Annecy de Physique Théorique (LAPTh, CNRS/USMB) invites expressions of interest for one or more postdoctoral researcher positions focused on advancing simulation-based Inference (SBI) frameworks for modern data analysis in cosmology and astroparticle physics.
These positions focus on the development and application of SBI methods in two contexts: spectroscopic galaxy surveys and the gamma-ray sky. The scientific objectives include constraining cosmological and astrophysical models, extracting information from small scales through SBI, both as standalone probes and in combination.
More specifically, the project requires developing the SBI framework including simulations as forward models of observables, performing inference on synthetic datasets and robustness tests, and applying the developed methods to publicly available data, in particular from DESI/Euclid and the Fermi-LAT telescope.

3. Conférence: “Unifying Galactic and Extragalactic Views of Star Formation – Spectroscopic studies & Data Science”, 20-24 April 2026, IAP, Paris, France
—————————————————————————————-
We have the pleasure to announce the upcoming workshop “Unifying Galactic and Extragalactic Views of Star Formation – Spectroscopic Studies & Data Science” . This workshop will take place at Institut d’Astrophysique de Paris from April 20th to April 24th. We will also broadcast the conference for registered participants through zoom.
The objectives of this workshop, at the interface between astronomy and data science, are to discuss spectroscopic studies of molecular clouds both locally in the Milky Way and in nearby galaxies. A focus will be put on the challenges posed by the analysis of large spectroscopic data sets, thanks to interdisciplinary discussions between data scientists and astronomers.
Research topics to be discussed at the conference will include:
– Multi-line observations of the Milky Way and nearby galaxies;
– Chemistry, magnetic field and star formation;
– Inverse problems, regularization and information theory;
– Statistical & Bayesian inference, machine learning and neural networks.
We welcome submission for oral contributions before 2026 February 27th in the evening.

4. Atelier: “Hot topics in Modern Cosmology, SW18″, 13-19 September, 2026, IESC, Cargese, France
—————————————————————————————-
Spontaneous Workshop (SW) brings together specialists in particle physics, astrophysics and theoretical physics at the Institute of Scientific Studies of Cargèse (IESC) to exchange recent knowledge on Cosmology in a constructive atmosphere. The goal is to stimulate debate for generating innovative ideas on emerging issues. With this in mind, the number of participants is limited to 30-40 and the workshop program is based on an optimal number of concise presentations, with a sufficient discussion space to facilitate interactions between participants. Postdoctoral and PhD students are encouraged to participate.
