The HI-to-H2 transition in the high redshift Universe – HIH2
Constraining the conversion from atomic to molecular gas at high redshift using absorption spectroscopy.
The French Yellow Vests: A Pluridisciplinary Approach to Popular Politicization and Mobilization – GILETSJAUNES
This multidisciplinary project documents the participation in the GJ. It sheds light on the politicisation, the scope of the protest, its media, political and social reception. It is based on a corpus of quantitative and qualitative data collected since 2018, supplemented by questionnaires, interviews, observations, and grievance books. The comparative approach and the multidisciplinary approach give an account of the movement in its different dimensions and configurations.
The EYE, a WINdow to neurovascular coupling – EyeWin
Neuro Vascular Coupling (NVC) is a mechanism by which the supply of oxygen and nutrients is adjusted to neural activity via blood flow regulation. Disruption of NVC in the brain is at the core of several pathologies. Extensive analysis of NVC has been performed on animals. Non-invasive technics are used on humans (OLD fMRI) but lack resolution. Retina offers access to NVC evaluation through non invasice optical techniques, provided that high spatial and temporal resolution is reached.
The DESI Lyman-alpha data: first analysis and contraints on neutrinos and Dark Matter – DESI-Lya
spectroscopic survey, which started its main survey in 2021. It is now providing Ly-a forest data with unprecedented
The Costs of Cognition from an Information-Theoretic perspective: experimental validation – CoCogIT
The origins of mental effort and mental fatigue remain neuroscientific enigmas. Here we aim at providing experimental validation to a novel framework to tackle these questions based on information theory and which predicts that subjective effort costs and task aversiveness are a function of the information cost of the task. We will test this novel theory experimentally, by means of behavioural and neuroimaging techniques in humans.
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
Testing the evolutionary species interactions - abiotic stress hypothesis – E-SIASH
Why do we observe species occurring in certain habitats but not in others? Since the days of Darwin researchers debate this fundamental question and the relative role of environment versus species’ interactions in driving species distribution patterns. While central to basic and applied research associated hypotheses 1) lack the integration of contemporary evolution and 2) remain largely untested empirically.
Testing the Ménage à Trois Hypothesis – MATHTEST
It was recently proposed that metabolic integration of the plastid into its eukaryotic host required the assistance of third partner, a now extinct chlamydia-like intracellular pathogen. The latter would have left its mark in the form of lateral transfers of genes encoding enzymes in particular metabolic pathways. In the MATHTEST project, we proposed to elucidate this imprint and the evolutionary history of vitamin K metabolism in cyanobacteria and eukaryotic algae.

Tenebrescent minerals by in silico Modelling – TeneMod
Toward a better understanding of the photochromism's mechanism of natural minerals from the sodalite familly using quantum chemical methods.
