A SToichiometric ECosystem model to link biodiversity and ecosystem functioning in agro-ecosystems – ASTEC
Assess a mechanistic modelling approach of the link between biodiversity dynamics and ecosystem functioning, using the concept of ecological stoichiometry For the moment: -a worldwide database of stoichiometric traits of heterotrophic organisms. -a worldwide database of invertebrate movement trait
A Sea of Connections: Valuing Reef Passages in the South Pacific Region – SOCPacific2R
The United Nations’ (UN) Sustainable Development Goal 14 – Life below water – aims at conserving and sustainably using the oceans, which represent 70% of the Earth’s surface. This goal is connected to the global target to expand protected areas to 30% of the planet by 2030, focusing on areas that ar
A Sustainable Cooperative Catalysis for the Introduction of SRf groups by C-H functionalization – SCoopCH
The SCoopCH project aims at designing new and sustainable approaches for the transition metal-catalyzed functionalization of aromatic and aliphatic derivatives with various SRf groups (SCF3, SCF2H and SCF2FG) by C-H bond activation. To reach that challenging goal, we intend to bring eco-friendly sol
A Water mass analysis and Exploration of linkS between phytoplankton, bacteria and trace MEtals along the South West INdian GEOTRACES Section – AWESOME-SWINGS
The Southern Ocean is a major sink for anthropogenic carbon, largely controlled by the biological pump, which depends on the availability of macro- and micro-nutrients, including trace metals (Fe, Cu, Zn, Co, Mn, Ni). Microbial processes play a key role in recycling, remineralization, and the modula
A central control hub in DNA damage responses: function and regulation of the RBR module – RHiD
The first aim of this project has been to expand the repertoire of DDR genes in plants. Based on a meta-analysis that successfully pinpointed new DNA damage regulators, which are both transcriptionally upregulated upon DNA stress and identified as target genes of RBR1, an in-depth characterization w
A low-frequency radio imager for NenuFAR – NRI
The NenuFAR project has been developed in Nançay since 2014 to cover for the first time at high sensitivity the very little explored 10-85 MHz range. This radio telescope was initially designed as a beamformer, recording time-frequency-polarisation data cubes in sensitive beams pointed at the target
A new biphasic microgel as lipoxin delivery system for tissue engineering – BILIPOX
1. WP 1: To prepare and analyze BPMG of Si-HPMC as LXA4 delivery system in vitro 2. WP 2: To study the effect of LXA4-BPMGs on macrophage phenotype and under simulated in vitro inflammatory condition 3. WP 3: to assess the effect of LXA4-BPMGs in preclinical models of inflammation - We have develo
A new methodology for efficient reduced basis reliability based design – ReBReD
Ensuring the reliability of a number of systems (aircraft, trains, nuclear power plants) is a critical issue, where many lives can be at stake. Over the past decades, advances in modeling, computing, and parallelization capabilities have made the modeling of increasingly complex structures operation
A new tool for the assessment of Speech Sound Disorders in French-speaking children – EULALIES
Children with Speech Sound Disorders (SSD) ‘‘can have any combination of difficulties with perception, articulation/ motor production, and/or phonological representation of speech segments (consonants and vowels), phonotactics (syllable and word shapes), and prosody (lexical and grammatical tones, r
A novel mechanically enhanced bioleaching process – BIOMECALIX
The BIOMECALIX project is positioned in the general context of extractive metallurgy in support of the energy and digital transition, and aims to improve existing technologies enabling the primary (from ores) or secondary (waste to be recycled) production of metals. In particular, the leaching stage
