Quantum Dots as Redox Photocatalysts for Organic Synthesis – PhotoRedoQs
The aim of this project is to develop the use of photoexcitable nanoparticles for the photocatalysis of new free radical reactions in the field of organic synthesis.
Human intestine biomimetic model to test the impact of microbiota products during SARS-CoV-2 infection – COVIDMicroGutModel
Several lines of evidence reported that the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is targeted by SARS-CoV-2. GI symptoms occur in 15 to 60% of the cases and are associated with severe forms of the infection, and SARS-CoV-2 RNA is present in the stools of infected patients. However, the role played by the intestine during COVID-19 and whether this organ is important for the viral transmission and for downstream inflammatory response is not yet understood
An original public service between past and future: Public baths in France and Western Europe – THERMAPOLIS
This project analyses access to water in Western cities through the example of public baths, in order to better understand the phenomenon of water insecurity, i.e. lack of access to water for hygiene purposes, and the responses to it in the neoliberal urban context of Western Europe.
Sustainable intensification of fruit production systems through innovative pest biological control technologies – Pest free fruit
In sub-Saharan Africa, fruit production is affected by pests that strongly impact on attaining food and nutrition security. The excessive reliance on chemicals is not sustainable, and current pest control methods are insufficient to minimize crop losses. Innovations relying on ecologically-based control become crucial to respond efficiently to sustainable fruit production, as well as societal concerns for safer and nutritionally-balanced diets, better health and environmental protection.
