Welcome to LIPhy
The laboratory is a joint CNRS/University of Grenoble Alpes unit and is attached to the Physics, Engineering, Materials pole of the university. The laboratory is largely oriented towards the interfaces of physics with other disciplines, in particular life sciences and environmental sciences, mechanics or applied mathematics.

Towards the ultimate precision limits: how information bounds estimation
On September 13, 2024
In this month’s issue of Nature Physics, Dorian Bouchet proposes a popular science article about the Fisher information. This quantity, which is a cornerstone in statistical estimation theory, also emerges an an important quantity in different areas of physics.
Emmanuel Siéfert, who joined LIPhy this year as a CNRS research fellow, has just been awarded a “Starting” grant from the European Research Council (ERC), which provides substantial funding for projects by young researchers.
Scientists at LIPhy have demonstrated the existence of a behavioral transition when the environment of zebrafish becomes too crowded, showing the extent to which the collective school structure resists the structural complexity of the surrounding environment.
