Research at UGA

Université Grenoble Alpes produces world-class research and creates knowledge and innovation for the benefit of society, human development and sustainability. Within its laboratories, researchers tackle major scientific and socio-economic issues in a bold, open and free spirit.

Research activities associate higher education institutions, national research organizations and important European and/or international research infrastructures.
The quality of research as well as the synergies between the laboratories shared with the CEA, CNRS, Inria, Inserm, Irstea, CHU Grenoble Alpes, IRD and INRA laid the foundation for the recognition of Université Grenoble Alpes as an Excellence Initiative (IDEX).
