Matter and Complex Systems (MSC)

The “Matière et Systèmes Complexes” (MSC) laboratory is a joint CNRS/University research unit (UMR 7057).It studies matter and complex systems in all their forms, from fluids displaying complex non-linear phenomena to systems close to geophysics and the environment.

Research teams

DOSM ( Dynamics and Organisation of Soft Matter)

Self-organization and dynamics in complex fluids and compounds.

 

 

DNSE ( Dynamics of Non-Equilibrium Systems )

Nonlinear physics,hydrodynamics, granular media, morphogenesis in the environment.

MorphoDyn (Morphogenesis and Dynamics of Self-Organised Systems)

The team uses concepts and tools of physics to study self-organisation phenomena with a strong emphasis on biological systems.

Theory

Off-Equilibrium Statistical Physics, Active Matter and Modeling in Soft Matter and Biological Systems.

 

Physics of Living Systems

Physical and physico-chemical mechanisms of life, Mechanobiology.
