About us
The group is composed of 7 researchers from several institutions where they teach, while research is conducted under a common banner: the IRIT laboratory. The institutions are: IUT Paul Sabatier, Université Paul Sabatier (UT3) and Université Jean Jaurès (UT2). We have also the chance to currently work with about 20 non permanent researchers (PhD students and post-doc).
