The SPIRou Planet Search for Habitable worlds – SPlaSH
Exploitation and coordination of the SPIRou Legacy Survey, a radial velocity survey dedicated to the search (for) and characterization of low mass exoplanets around M dwarfs.
The Promises of Soil Carbon Sequestration: Innovations, Organisations, Knowledge – POSCA
Aiming to balance greenhouse gas emissions and the sequestering capacities of non-atmospheric sinks, the Paris Agreement reached at the COP 21 in 2015 signals the new centrality of carbon sinks, including soils, as a key means of enabling climate stability. POSCA focuses on the rising promotion of soil as carbon sink in climate policies and how this is reconfiguring the way in which we come to know and manage soil.

The NILE & AFAR areas: hydrological change sensitivity and impact on past human adaptation since 20,000 years – NILAFAR
The NILAFAR program aims to study the impact of hydrological fluctuations on societies at the transitionbetween hunter-gathering and agro-pastoralism in NE Africa over the last 20,000 years. Its objectives are to better understand the mechanisms at the origin of the intensity fluctuations of the African monsoon (external forcing and internal feedbacks of the climate system), and at the origin of episodes of hyperaridity that occurred over a few hundred years.

The Integration by Religions of Migrants in Burkina Faso – Relinsert
This project aims to analyze the role of religions in the insertion of migrants who settle in Burkina Faso or who are from this country, in three regions characterized by important migratory and religious dynamics.
The IRON cycle in deep-sea hydrothermal vents: role of iron-reducing and iron-oxidizing MIcroorganisms and impact on MInerals alteration – IRON2MI
We address 3 main hypotheses: (i) the characterization of new taxa involved in Fe-cycle, in addition to those already known, and the study of their metabolic pathways will allow to identify new Fe gene markers, (ii) the use of Fe gene markers will allow to study the structure and functions of microbial communities involved in the Fe cycle at the scale of a hydrothermal site, and (iii) microorganisms using Fe in their energy pathways contribute significantly to the alteration of Fe-rich minerals.
