The MISTEA research laboratory (ex ASB) is a JRU (Joint Research Unit), that brings together (teachers-)researchers  from the INRA MIA (Applied Mathematics and Informatics) department and from  the Montpellier SupAgro SABP (Sciences for agri-bio-processes) department. Several researchers from INRIA are associated to the laboratory as they belong to the team project MODEMIC (Modeling and Optimization of the dynamics of microbial ecosystems).

The activities of the laboratory concern the development of mathematical, statistical and computer science methods dedicated to analysis and decision support  for Agronomy and  Environment, with particular emphasis on modeling, dynamical systems and complex systems.
