Le CR2P est un laboratoire entièrement dédié à la paléontologie.Il a pour objectif d'élucider la structure des relations de parenté et l'histoire du vivant au travers du registre fossile et des environnements du passé. Il est sous la triple tutelle du Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle (MNHN), de Sorbonne Université et du CNRS (INEE).
