Through this curious little character, discover not only the richness of ARD MATEX but more generally how current research works.

Poly is a strange little character, straight out of a research file on multimaterials in extreme conditions.
Poly is a strange little character, straight out of a research project on multimaterials in extreme conditions. Curious, he asks lots of questions to understand why he’s there and sets out to explore the different aspects of research today with the help of the project leaders. In addition to discovering the many instruments used by scientists, he meets Knowledge and Nancement, takes a stroll through the laboratories in Centre-Val de Loire, and encounters all the research actors and industrial partners.

After undergoing various transformations, he contributes to research and becomes useful to society.

This popularization tool was created and made possible by the talented Anne Bernardi with the help of the CSTI working group of ARD MATEX (Nadia Pellerin, Louis Hennet, Élodie Salager, Marjorie Roulet and Marie-Laure Thurier).

The comic was printed by Loire Impression with recycled paper.

The English version is being translated with the help of second grade students from Lycée Maurice Genevoix
