The role of gas turbulence in liquid fragmentation – FragTurb
The fragmentation of a liquid phase by a gas flow happens through a cascade of coupled mechanisms. This process is ubiquitous to engineering applications that aim at producing a high-quality spray (cl
Range-adapting reinforcement learning and memory – RaReMem
A wealth of evidence in perceptual and economic decision-making research suggests that the subjective value of one option is determined by the range of the values of other available options (i.e., the
New strategy in the discovery of Natural Antituberculosis Agents from French Guiana flora – SONATA
Nowadays, approximately 60% of the world’s population uses herbal medicines, and plants are recognized as a source of therapeutically effective drugs. Natural products are an important source of new s
Chromatin organization based mechanisms of TE silencing – COMETES_Ukraine
Transposable elements (TEs) constitute a large portion of eukaryotic genomes. Because of their mobility, they are potential threats for the host genome. One big challenge in biology is to determine ho
Development of Embryonic Zeolites for Efficient Conversion of CO2 to Dimethyl Ether and Light Olefins – DEZECO
CO2 hydrogenation is an attractive opportunity to address the greenhouse effect by synthesizing renewable fuels like dimethyl ether (DME) and basic chemicals like light olefins. The bifunctional catal
In preparation for the 1st study of OSIRIS-REx return asteroid samples – O-Return_Ukraine
Owing to a high-resolution cathodoluminescence systematic study of carbonaceous chondrites and NASA OSIRIS-REx returned samples, O-Return is a 4 years ANR project aiming at gaining new information on
Evolutionary feedback between traits and species diversification: convergence and divergence in sympatric butterflies of the Amazonian rainforest – OUTOFTHEBLUE
This project will bridge gaps between micro and macro evolution by ascertaining the evolutionary feedbacks between trait and species diversification, focusing on closely-related species living in symp
Therapeutic human monoclonal antibodies against multidrug resistant bacteria via combined high-potential target identification, single B cell antibody isolation and structural approaches – HUMABACT
Multi drug resistant (MDR) bacteria, notably Klebsiella pneumoniae (Kp) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa), are a major global threat. The development of alternative anti-infectious therapies is thus cru
Skeletal Reorganization of Bicyclic Cyclopropanes – Skelet_CyProp
The aim of Skelet_CyProp project is to exploit an unusual bicyclic cyclopropane skeletal reorganization by combining organocatalysis and superacid activation. Aspiring to reach structural diversity by
Bifunctional nickel catalysts for hydrofunctionalization reactions via cooperative E–H (E = B, Si) bond activations – BIFUN
Associating two research groups with complementary expertise, the cooperative project BIFUN aims at developing bifunctional activator-free Ni(II)-NHC (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene) catalysts for the h
