Human Sciences Institute (MSH) of Paris-Saclay
Research unit
The MSH Paris-Saclay is a CNRS research unit positioned at the heart of the University Paris Saclay.
The MSH Paris-Saclay aims to extend this objective to developing interdisciplinarity between human and social sciences and other scientific disciplines. This broadening of its objectives is a strategic answer to two major challenges for future generations: the digital revolution and the ecological transition.
The research focuses of the MSH Paris-Saclay have been defined so as to harness research efforts of human and social scientists from the University Paris-Saclay in support of these issues. Thus, the MSH Paris-Saclay is structured around two main research topics along these two major transformations, and one transversal topic dealing with innovation.

Expertises
- ?Digital humanities? (topic1) brings together ongoing research concerning the digital revolution and its ambiguities.
- ?Environment and society? (topic2) study of interactions between research on the environment, on territories and on health. Scientists and politicians are concerned among other things about the relationship between human health and environmental health.
- ?Transition and innovation? (transversal topic) organisation of methodological and reflexive research on science and technology and on innovation as cause and consequence of these transitions.
