Une Recherche de Pointe
La recherche en ALLSH s’appuie sur 14 unités de recherche (9 EA et 5 UMR), un LABEX (le Brain Language Research Institute, BLRI), une participation au LabexMed coordonné par la MMSH et une Fédération de Recherche 3C (Cerveau, Cognition et Comportement) partagée avec la faculté des sciences. Le champ disciplinaire couvert par les unités de recherche est extrêmement vaste et riche : les arts, la littérature, les langues, la philosophie et la psychologie.

Celle-ci offre 4 500 m² dédiés à la recherche et 4 plateformes d’expérimentation et d’observation.
