Scientific partnerships
Collaboration
for innovation
We have a commitment to innovation and research based on close collaboration with leading scientific partners. These partnerships keep us at the cutting edge of research. By combining our expertise with that of research centres, academic institutions and specialised organisations, we are able to develop ever more efficient, sustainable solutions tailored to the evolving needs of our markets.
Partners committed
to the long term
Our scientific partners work in a variety of fields, including neuroscience, microbiology, galenics, ethology and pharmacology. They bring a wealth of knowledge that strengthens our capacity for innovation. Together, we conduct in-depth research on sensory ingredients, natural active ingredients and formulations that meet today’s challenges of human and animal well-being. Thanks to these partnerships, we remain at the cutting edge of the latest scientific and technological advances, guaranteeing solutions that are both innovative and rigorously substantiated.

Development
of academic research
We are proactive in the development of academic research by co-supervising doctoral theses as part of our commitment to scientific innovation. This type of academic partnership enables us to explore key areas, including neuroscience and microbiology. We conduct studies within the context of these theses, supervised by our researchers and academic experts, to deepen our knowledge and explore the mechanisms of action enabling scientific validation of the effects observed. In this way, we are able to support the training of young researchers to provide innovative answers to the challenges of tomorrow.
