France Korea Particle Physics and e-science Laboratory
Created in 2008, the FKPPL aims at fostering collaboration between Korean and French teams in the research fields of the 2 infinities (particle physics, hadronic physics, nuclear physics, high energy astrophysics and cosmology) and related disciplines (multidisciplinary applications, accelerator physics, computing, open science).
In close collaboration with the France-Japan and France-China Particle Physics Laboratories, FKPPL provides a framework for initiating projects between CNRS Institute of Nuclear and Particle Physics and Korean universities and research organizations.
The yearly FKPPL call for projects provides the opportunity for new initiatives to receive support mainly for travel exchanges. This seed funding allows laying the foundation for scientific collaboration and preparing joint grant applications including those offered by the French embassy in Korea.
Every year, the FKPPL-TYL/FJPPL joint workshop is the opportunity for trilateral exchanges between research teams in Japan, Korea and France. The next workshop will be held May 9-11 2023 at Ochanomizu University in Tokyo.
