Chimie Bio-Inspirée et Innovations Ecologiques (ChimEco)

GRABELS

The ambitions of the ChimEco laboratory are to develop an interdisciplinary approach to global ecology and green chemistry as a vector for sustainable development. The activities are based on the unusual combination of phytotechnologies adapted to the ecological rehabilitation of degraded sites and the valorisation of these processes by an innovative and bio-inspired green chemistry, ecocatalysis.

Observing and understanding nature better to replicate its genius... This is not a new idea but the concept of bio-inspiration now appears to be more than ever a major trend for innovation. In health, robotics, ecology, chemistry, engineering sciences, etc., CNRS researchers will show you their research and its applications which were inspired by nature. Welcome to the bio-inspired world!

CNRS research in the French overseas territories involves highly varied disciplines ranging from ecology, life sciences, earth sciences, physics and chemistry to the humanities and social sciences. It is transversal and interdisciplinary research which is both fundamental and applied in nature and involves a large community of researchers, academics, engineers and technicians.
