The aim is to facilitate breakthrough scientific developments leading to new concepts and products. COST does not fund research but supports networking (COST Actions) via different tools such as meetings, short-term scientific exchanges, training schools and dissemination activities. COST Actions have a duration of 4 years. The deadline to submit a COST Action is usually in October. COST Actions do not cover research funding. Integration into existing COST actions is possible.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nSwitzerland is one of the founding countries of COST and a full member of the COST Association. Thanks to this status, researchers in Switzerland are entitled to participate in COST Actions or to coordinate them and submit applications for new Actions. Thus, scientists based in Switzerland are fully eligible for all COST activities and for reimbursement of their related expenses.<br>\r\nSNSF provides support for the proposal preparation for COST

Alongside a 'plurality of time', we are interested in the 'plurality of space'. Rather than transparency, it is the arrangement of different worlds face-to-face or side-by-side that creates this impression of density and richness in relationships.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nTo craft sustainable development, we believe that, alongside a body of fundamental knowledge, a spirit can be cultivated through tireless attempts, including failure, to develop a 'knowledge of the hand' capable of finding new forms of expression. The countless experiences that we have accumulated at MANSLAB over the past 15 years can undoubtedly be best recounted in the form of anecdotes. An anecdote is a historical detail or a characteristic of customs or character that becomes a short, entertaining story evoking emotions such as laughter or horror.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe students’ work that I am about to present illustrates certain tested, refined and proven principles, such as the indestructible link between ideas and the hand through the slow and joyful acquisition of knowledge; the economy of means to highlight the essential; errors and non-linearity as inspiring methods in the design process; and the cultivation of empirical, manual and physical knowledge that prioritises grasping sensory, supra-sensory and memory-based reality and is capable of creating new spaces. The launch of the book ANEKDOTA will take place at the same event.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u><strong>About the speaker:</strong></u><br>\r\nMarco Bakker is born in Harlingen, Netherlands, in 1960. He first earned a degree in Civil Engineering from HTS Leeuwarden, before continuing his studies in Architecture and Urban Planning at Delft University of Technology, including spending a year abroad at EPFL. Following four years of experimentation in architecture and photography, he founded the firm Bakker & Blanc Architects (BABL) with Alexandre Blanc in 1992. At the same time, he worked as an assistant to Prof. Vincent Mangeat and visiting professor Kaschka Knapkiewicz at EPFL. From 2003 to 2009, he taught architectural design and theory at the BFH in Burgdorf. Following four years as visiting professors together with Alexandre Blanc, they were appointed associate professors at the EPFL Institute of Architecture within the 'MANSLAB, Laboratory of Spatial Manufacturing' chair from 2013 to 2025.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nHe also served on the Arts and Architecture Commission of the Canton of Bern and was a member of the editorial board of Werk-Bauen & Wohnen. He chaired the jury for the Swiss Pavilion at the Venice Biennale on behalf of Pro Helvetia. Marco Bakker also regularly participates in various photographic and editorial projects related to art and architecture.<br>\r\n ", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-03-26T14:49:29", "last_modification_date": "2026-03-26T16:15:54", "link_label": "S'inscrire", "link_url": "http://shorturl.at/Zatib", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "SG 1138", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==SG%201138", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Prof. Marco Bakker", "organizer": "IA - Gesualdo Casciana", "contact": "[email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Sur inscription", "en_label": "Registration required" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120198/", "category": { "id": 8, "code": "LI", "fr_label": "Leçons inaugurales - Leçons d'honneur", "en_label": "Inaugural lectures - Honorary Lecture", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/4/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/145/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/27/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/32/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 69474, "title": "Honorary Lecture – Prof. Giovanni De Micheli", "slug": "honorary-lecture-prof-giovanni-de-micheli", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/honorary-lecture-prof-giovanni-de-micheli", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/30983/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/30983/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/30983/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-05-12", "end_date": "2026-05-12", "start_time": "18:00:00", "end_time": "21:00:00", "description": "<strong>Date: </strong>Tuesday 12 May 2026<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Program:</strong> \r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>18:00-18:15: Introduction by Prof. Sabine Süsstrunk, Dean of IC School and Prof. Adrian Ionescu, Dean of STI School.</li>\r\n\t<li>18:15-19:00: Honorary Lecture by Prof. Giovanni De Micheli</li>\r\n\t<li>19:00-19:10: Q & A</li>\r\n\t<li>19:10-19:20: Presentation of Honorary Diploma and Medal by Prof. Edouard Bugnion, Vice President for Innovation and Impact.</li>\r\n\t<li>19:20-19:30: Thank you and closing - Prof. Sabine Süsstrunk and Prof. Adrian Ionescu.</li>\r\n\t<li>19:30-21:00: Apéritif in the CO 2 - Hall 2nd floor</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<strong>Location:</strong> <a href=\"https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==CO%202\">CO 2</a><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Registration</strong>: click <a href=\"https://forms.gle/vDbWWdRJM4mYvbx88\">here</a> <br>\r\n<br>\r\n***********************************************************<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Professor Giovanni De Micheli</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u><strong>Carrying the Torch</strong></u><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Abstract</strong><br>\r\nFrom my perspective as a researcher and educator, the torch represents the message that I carry and will pass on to a new generation of scientists and engineers. The interaction and networking with the community is essential to our activity: indeed, we teach to and learn from each other. The circle symbolizes the flow of information among peers as well as a paradigm where crossbreeding of ideas and methods is key to scientific advances. This message will be portrayed with examples from my scientific career and a vision of the future.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>About the speaker</strong><br>\r\nGiovanni De Micheli is currently the Scientific Director of the EcoCloud center at EPFL.
