The Human Adaptation Institute aims to better understand the cognitive and physiological mechanisms of human adaptation in facing rapid or long-term change. Our studies are carried out in real life situations, solely on humans, in an equal manner and considering all physiological, cognitive and ecosystem parameters impacting the notion of Adaptation.

Our results enable us to better prepare for the future as well as to propose levers of action beforehand in order to reduce possible impacts.
