Research at ICP

In spite of its relatively small staff, the ICP pursues investigations in a great variety of fields. This diversity, which stems from the principles that have guided the creation of the institute and, notably, from the freedom enjoyed by its investigators, nevertheless does not lead to excessive dispersion of efforts. On the contrary, it generates particularly fruitful exchanges that are made possible, beyond the differences among subjects, by the common concepts and methods characteristic of modern biology. The same tools are used and the same language is spoken, whether one looks at a virus, a microbe, a parasitic protist, a plant, an animal or a human being. Following are the research groups at work in 2005.
