The CIML is thrilled to announce that Professor Eric Vivier, has been appointed directly by decree of the Prime Minister to the rank of Officer in the Ordre des Palmes académiques. This exceptional honor was conveyed by Madame Nicole Belloubet, Minister of National Education and Youth.
The Ordre des Palmes académiques, established by Napoleon I in 1808, is the oldest civil honor bestowed by the French state. This prestigious order recognizes outstanding contributions to national education and culture. While primarily intended for personnel of the Ministry of National Education, it also distinguishes individuals who have rendered significant services to education or made exceptional contributions to cultural enrichment.
Professor Vivier's direct appointment to the rank of Officer is a testament to his remarkable achievements and contributions to immunology research and education. This honor not only celebrates his individual accomplishments but also reflects the excellence and impact of the immunology research conducted at CIML.
