Mercury methylation by microorganisms: from cell to environment – MicroMer
Methylmercury is a potent neurotoxin produced by microorganisms in anaerobic environments. To assess the environmental and human health risks associated with its production, understanding the molecular and cellular mechanisms employed by microorganisms to produce methylmercury is a crucial step. This understanding will improve the risk assessment over methylmercury contamination, thereby reducing the exposure of living organisms.
Role of Corticoids in Ocular Rosacea – ROCOR
Ocular rosacea (OR) is a common but underdiagnosed ocular surface disease. It alters significantly the quality of vision and life and can threaten the visual prognosis as no treatment is available. OR results from chronic neurovascular and inflammatory mechanisms that can be triggered by corticosteroids. But the mechanisms linking corticoids and neurovascular, immune dysregulation and meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) in OR are unknown.
French medical doctors: specialty and practice location choices – MedSpe
The project focusses on the decisions occurring at two periods: the one made during medical education, i.e., the choice of a residency position (specialty and region for medical training), and the one made after medical studies, i.e., the practice location choice.
Building of a diagnostic/prognostic database by high-throughput multiplexed assays for human ERG variant effects – CarDiag
At the clinical level, many natural variants of the potassium channel hERG have not been characterized at the functional level posing a problem to clinicians to diagnose a long QT syndrome and to treat the patients. The aim of our project is to functionally characterize ALL known French variants in order to facilitate the classification of these variants as benign or pathogenic.

The Behavioral and Computational Nature of Range Dependent Decisions – RANGE
ndividual decision-making is at the root of major societal, health, environmental and individual issues. Most of our decisions entails uncertainty and risk regarding their consequences and compels us to engage in permanent arbitrage. In this outlook, it is quite common to notice that our current financial decisions are strongly sensitive to options available in the current context (even if they are not relevant) and to the conditions in which we previously earnt or lost money. In this regard, so
Atlas of the Balkan Linguistic Area – ABLA
When contact-induced change and borrowing become systematic across a number of languages and persist over time, language clusters are found containing languages which, although not genetically related, have become more similar. The areas in which such languages are spoken are referred to as “Sprachbund,” “convergence area,” and “linguistic area” (Trubetzkoy, 1928). The most well-known linguistic area is the Balkans.
