The last technical visit for EE 3940: Nano-Bio Circuits and Systems in London and Paris was at the University of Pierre and Marie Curie. Of all the research laboratories at the university, we were introduced to the Laboratoire d'Informatique de Paris 6 (LiP6). According to Sébastien Tixeuil, the first lecturer, LiP6 is 1 of 120 laboratories at UPMC. They work closely with CNRS (the French National Center for Scientific Research). The departments at LiP6 included System on a Chip, Networks and Distributed Systems, Scientific Computing, Decision Making, Intelligent Systems, and Databases and Machine Learning.

Together with lectures from LiP6 researchers, we and the researchers were given lectures from Adam Pagel about international exchange and professor Sobelman about the EE3940.
