LMGP, Laboratory of Materials Science and Physical Engineering, was created in 1985 by merging two research teams. It is a joint research unit CNRS / Grenoble INP (Grenoble Institute of Technology).
LMGP moved to the MINATEC site in May 2006, et has been a member of the FMNT federation (Federation Micro- and Nano- Technologies) since 2003.
Today, its research activities are organised in three teams, lead by first rank scientists:
- IMBM - Interface between Materials and Biological Matter (M. Weidenhaupt)
- NanoMaterials (V. Consonni)
- FunSurf (D. Muñoz-Rojas)
