Signalling to Epigenetics: Remodelling of the host cell epigenome by Theileria during parasite-induced leukocyte transformation – S2E_Thei
Remodelling of the host cell epigenome by Theileria during parasite-induced leukocyte transformation
Coevolution of Caenorhabditis nematodes and viral pathogens – CAENOVIRUS
Natural pathogens exert strong selective pressures on their host. Host defense in turn provides a changing environment for the pathogen. This reciprocal evolutionary interaction may drive an evolutionary «arms race« between pathogen and host, as evidenced by the fast evolution of relevant genes. We have discovered the first natural viruses infecting the nematode model organism C. elegans and its relative C. briggsae.<br />
Role of SigmaS in bacterial fitness and adaptation to the environment – SIGMADAPT
The SigmaS protein reprograms genome expression of pathogenic bacteria such as Salmonella to increase bacterial survival under stress and starvation conditions and to favor their persistence in the environment. The objective of the SIGMADAPT project is to characterize major molecular mechanisms involved in this adaptive strategy.
INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS FOR IMPROVED MINIATURE ATOMIC CLOCKS – ISIMAC
Atomic clocks provide enhanced accuracy, stability, and timing precision compared to quartz-based technologies. However, the size and power consumption of compact clocks reduces their deployment in portable applications. The MEMS technology is now adapted for the realisation of miniature frequency and timing reference units.
Robust Multispectral data analysis for target detection and IDentification – MultID
coherent processing to extract useful features. These features can be either physically meaningful components
Growth of Low dislocation density diamond substrates – CROISADD
the layer where they sometimes generate growth features (hillocks, unepitaxial crystals). This project
Optimization and Modelling of a Bioreactor for the production of bone construct – OMBIOS
Due to its histocompatible and nonimmunogenic features, autologous bone harvested from donor sites, such
Organic carbon transfer and ecosystem functionning in the terminal lobes of the Congo deep-sea fan – CONGOLOBE
The terminal lobes of the Congo deep-sea fan are a unique area in the world ocean. Located at 750 km off the coast and at 5000 m depth, these lobes are directly fuelled by river material rich in organic matter delivered by the Congo River, which makes it the equivalent of an offshore river delta. These lobes host peculiar ecosystems characterized by large bivalves and bacterial mats, which functioning in such sedimentological context is unknown.
plasMon ASSisTed electro-optical modulatOR – MASSTOR
shown that properly designed metal nanostructures feature nanosize footprint and advanced optical functions
Structure, Chemical Order and Reactivity of Gold-Palladium Nanoparticles: from vacuum to reaction conditions – AuPd-Seg
The knowledge of the composition and surface structure of nanoalloy particles is crucial to explain their catalytic performance. The bonding of adsorbates may, in some cases, induce modifications in local atomic composition and surface structure, changing the activity and selectivity of the catalyst
