The 2025 edition of the HERCULES European School has officially come to an end — and what a fantastic journey it has been!
Over the past several weeks, we’ve had the immense pleasure of welcoming a vibrant cohort of motivated and passionate young scientists from all over the world. From lectures to practicals, from Grenoble to our partner facilities across Europe, every moment of HERCULES 2025 was marked by deep scientific exchange, dynamic learning, and meaningful connection.
Our full-time participants impressed all our lecturers, instructors, and international partners with their curiosity, engagement, and scientific enthusiasm. We were especially touched to see the friendly atmosphere and the smiles that lit up their faces throughout the school. It is clear that beyond acquiring scientific knowledge, participants also built long-lasting friendships and a solid network for future collaborations — a true HERCULES spirit.
We would also like to extend our warmest thanks to our online participants. Though physically distant, their strong interest, consistent attendance, and active interaction brought great value to our sessions. We hope HERCULES has provided useful insight and inspiration for their ongoing research, and we look forward to the opportunity to welcome them in Grenoble in the future.
As organizers, we are deeply grateful for the trust, kindness, and appreciation we received from our participants. Your energy is what keeps HERCULES alive and growing every year.
Thank you all for making HERCULES 2025 an unforgettable success — and we hope to see you, or your future students, at one of our next editions.
Wishing you all the best in your scientific journeys!
The HERCULES Organizing Team
