Research Laboratories

The Biosciences and Bioengineering for Health (BGE) unit consists of three teams accredited by UGA, CEA, and Inserm.
- The Biomics team
- The EDyP team
- The Gen and Chem team

The Biology and Biotechnology for Health laboratory conducts research covering both fundamental aspects of cell signaling and translational approaches. The aim is to work from the "laboratory to the patient's bedside" using advanced biotechnologies, including proteomics, genomics, new drug screening, and the development of innovative biomedical devices.
Research projects focus on processes occurring under physiological conditions, such as angiogenesis and tissue repair, as well as under pathological conditions, such as rare diseases and certain cancers.

The Grenoble Department of Molecular Chemistry is a joint research unit (UMR-5250) bringing together the CNRS andUniversité Grenoble Alpes. Created on January 1, 2007, the DCM employs around 150 people whose scientific work focuses on major societal issues: health and well-being, new energies, and fundamental aspects.

The DPM focuses on pharmaceutical and biomedical sciences by developing research that is both fundamental, at the molecular level, and applied to the needs of hospitals.

The Grenoble Institute of Neuroscience (GIN) was created in 2007 by INSERM,Université Grenoble Alpes, the CEA (French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission) and Grenoble-Alpes University Hospital (CHU).
The GIN brings together teams in Grenoble specializing in the study of physiological and pathological processes of the nervous system and the development of innovative techniques to explore and treat them.
The GIN's mission is to study the central and peripheral nervous systems in order to understand how they work and to propose innovative therapies for neurological, neuromuscular, and psychiatric diseases.

GIPSA-lab is a joint research laboratory of the CNRS, Grenoble-INP-UGA, and the University of Grenoble Alpes. It has agreements with INRIA and the Grenoble Observatory of Universe Sciences. It conducts theoretical and applied research on AUTOMATION, SIGNALS, IMAGES, SPEECH, COGNITION, ROBOTICS, and LEARNING.
GIPSA-lab conducts its research through 16 teams, or themes, organized into four clusters: the Automation and Diagnostics Cluster (PAD), the Data Science Cluster (PSD), the Speech and Cognition Cluster (PPC), and the Geometries, Learning, Information, and Algorithms Cluster (GAIA).

The IAB "Institute for Advanced Biosciences" is an internationally renowned research center in the field of fundamental and translational biomedical research.

ILCEA4 structures its research activities around three cross-disciplinary themes, each of which allows for cooperation between researchers working in different languages.
The cross-disciplinary theme "Cultural Creation and Territory(ies)" focuses on the dialectical relationships between linguistic and political areas organized into territories and the circulation and evolution of forms of cultural and artistic expression.

The cross-disciplinary theme "Migration, borders, and international relations" focuses on the position or movement of human beings and communities within territories or from one territory to another, from a perspective more closely linked to political, social, and economic issues.

The cross-cutting theme "Politics, discourse, innovation" focuses on all forms of discourse and the transition from one language to another, with an emphasis on political issues and technical and methodological innovations.

The Grenoble Institute of Philosophy is organized around two areas of focus.
Area 1. "Practices: values, norms, institutions"
Area 2. "Mind and cognition"

The Laboratory for Research on Contextual Learning (LaRAC) is a multidisciplinary research laboratory rooted in the field of education sciences and open to international collaboration.

The Laboratory of Linguistics and Didactics of Foreign and Native Languages (Lidilem) currently has around 60 permanent members and approximately 70 doctoral students. All of them organize their work around the themes and programs that structure the laboratory's activities.
The work carried out at Lidilem falls within the field of language sciences: linguistic descriptions, sociolinguistics, acquisition, corpus creation and exploitation, language teaching, automatic language processing, and the study of new forms of interaction brought about by digital uses.

The LIG aims to be a laboratory focused on the foundations and development of computer science, while ensuring an ambitious openness to society in order to support new challenges.

Inter-University Laboratory of Personality, Cognition, and Social Change (LIP/PC2S)

Created in 2016, the Litt&Arts research unit brings together around 70 teacher-researchers, as many doctoral students in Literature and Performing Arts, a CNRS researcher, supported by a group of four digital humanities engineers (ELAN) and five administrative staff. The "&" symbol reflects the unit's scientific ambition: to multiply fruitful cross-fertilization between literary studies and the performing and screen arts. These crossovers take two main forms: the first is "digital convergence," which allows for new ways of processing not only texts but also images, voices, and gestures; the second is research-creation supported by the Maison de la Création et de l'Innovation (MaCI in Grenoble), with spectacular equipment for cinema, theater, dance, circus, and digital text.

The Jean Kuntzmann Laboratory is a joint research unit shared byUniversité Grenoble Alpes, the CNRS, Grenoble INP, and Inria (UMR 5224).
It consists of three research departments in applied mathematics and computer science.

The Laboratory of Psychology and NeuroCognition (LPNC) is a joint research unit (UMR) affiliated with the CNRS (section 26 CNRS INSB and a secondary affiliation with CNRS INSHS section 34) and two universities (UGA and USMB). It is structured into five thematic research teams (Body and Space, Development and Learning, Language, Consciousness, Memory & MetaCognition, and Vision and Emotion), as well as a Babylab.

SENS studies the individual and social determinants of behaviors and practices in the field of physical and sports activities, in a societal environment marked by profound changes.

The TIMC laboratory brings together scientists and clinicians to use digital sciences, applied mathematics, and life sciences to understand and control normal and pathological processes in health.
TIMC is an interdisciplinary unit in the field of biotechnology for health, which develops a continuum of research in response to priority health issues, inspired by and organized around healthcare stakeholders. Its activity contributes both to basic knowledge in these fields and to the development of systems to aid diagnosis and therapy.
