InScience with and for Society – ISAPS

To carry out the various projects, we work with service providers who are experts in their field. Quantitative and qualitative analyses are then carried out to measure the achievement of results.

ANR projects were highly visible:
- 1,765,889 video views
- 2,421 podcasts listened to
- 98,654 people in person
- 8,000 comic books distributed
- Digital coverage for the comic: 603,000 views for season 1, comprising 10 episodes (2023) and
519,000 views for season 2, comprising 7 episodes (2024)

Our outlook: continue to promote ANR research projects and project leaders, to raise public awareness of health issues and introduce people to the world of biomedical research.

Several productions have been produced:
- comic strips (BD InScience, Elles sont l'Inserm)
- podcasts
- videos
- a search-and-find poster
- presentations on participatory research
- café debates/conferences
A webinar to raise awareness of scientific mediation will also be offered to all researchers in 2025.

The services in charge of communication and advisor for local scientific culture (SCCS) of the Inserm regional delegations are collectively answering to this ANR call to pool scientific mediation and communication actions of regional and national scope as part of the festival "InScience: cultivate your health with Inserm".
This festival is an opportunity to honor the winners JCJC and PRC 2018/19 as well as a way to shed light on a global valorisation of science with many scientific staff from our laboratories and Clinical Investigation Centers.
Our main objective is to support throughout three years the scientific staff of this call who will be associated with our local committees. We will rely on their skills, their ideas, their strengths of proposal. These women and men will be warrantors of a clear, popularized and just scientific word.
For a better visibility of this festival and of project leaders, we will suggest annually a duo of "researcher/influencer" as godmother/godfather of each edition. This promotion will give us greater visibility on social networks and will allow us to attract other audiences. We have already sought personalities who could take part in these pairs such as Elodie Chabrol, internationally recognized in the field of scientific communication, and Marion Leboyer, psychiatrist and Inserm Grand Prix 2021.
It seems important to us to specify that the budget suggested in full cost include the HR costs, which only relate to the valorisation the 18/19 laureates’ work. These human resources cost is just under 0.2 FTEs for an engineer of the selected projects, linked to InScience overall; and relates only to the SCCS that coordinate the project. There is therefore no recruitment to be expected since InScience take place each year with a division of tasks by delegation already established. Locally and by delegation, everything is already thought out and organized in this sense.
Lastly, this project is carried by all the regional delegations. Delegations that do not appear in the list of projects are locally associated with universities of partner sites and will submit actions for future editions of InScience in their project.
