"Analysis and clarity is central to French research." - Alfie
Alfie, a 🇵🇭 scientist in Lyon shares a quote from André-Marie Ampère (🇫🇷 mathematician, physicist, chemist, and philosopher) to describe his experience of doing research in France
« Il y a une analyse quand d'une vérité compliquée on déduit des vérités plus simples. »
(“There is analysis when from a complicated truth one deduces more simple truths.”)
“Now at the final stretch of my research training as a PhD student in Lyon; I can attest — and I believe the great Lyonnais Ampère would be happy to know — that his country is still very much dedicated to analysis and truth, especially the requisite qualities of clarity and rigor in thought.
I’m convinced that this dedication is one reason for the immense French contribution in the sciences, technology, and other domains.
“To fellow Filipinos, I invite you to come study in France where you will cultivate a fresh set of eyes to see more clearly, an enriched mind to think more deeply, and a renewed spirit to fight more bravely for a better future for our own country and for all of humanity.”
👨🎓Alfie is finishing his PhD in Electrical Engineering at the Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1/Laboratoire Ampère in Lyon. He recently presented his thesis on the optimization of electrical energy storage systems
