CR2P is a laboratory entirely dedicated to paleontology. Its objective is to elucidate the structure of kinship relationships and the history of life through the fossil record and past environments. From the most primitive life forms of the Precambrian to hominids, the expertise of CR2P's members covers a wide spectrum of animal and plant fossil groups from the infinitesimally small to the giant vertebrates.
