Organised in France by the CNRS and France Universités since 2014, the "Ma thèse en 180 secondes" (My thesis in 180 seconds) popular science and eloquence competition (MT180) aims to showcase the work carried out by doctoral students as well as demonstrate the dynamism of research in France, from the humanities and social sciences to the environment, biology and physics.
