International research laboratories

International research laboratories (IRL), formerly International Joint Units (UMI) (previous CNRS nomenclature).

IRLs are laboratories located on a single international platform, where partner institutions jointly conduct research activities within a shared scientific framework. These laboratories are structured around the significant and lasting presence of scientists from a limited number of French and foreign research institutions (only one foreign partner country).

International research projects

International research projects (IRP), formerly called Laboratoires internationaux associés (LIA) (previous CNRS classification)..

IRPs are virtual laboratories in which human and material resources are pooled for a research project, usually involving several research teams or laboratories in France and abroad that have already worked together on co-publications. Their purpose is to organize working meetings or seminars, develop joint research activities including field research, and supervise students.

International research networks

International research networks (IRN), formerly called Groupements de recherche internationaux (GDRI) (former CNRS nomenclature).

The purpose of this grouping is to structure an emerging scientific community at the international level around a shared theme or a research infrastructure. It brings together researchers from one or more French laboratories, including at least one CNRS laboratory, and from several partner laboratories abroad. These collaborations include the organization of workshops, seminars or schools in France and abroad. They define specific objectives in terms of expected outcomes, beyond the mere scientific animation, as well as the added value of the international collaboration. They have an exploratory purpose.
