Social dimension of primates’ peripersonal space – MySPACE
Even though we perceive the space around us as a continuum, the region close to the body where physical interactions with the environment take place is a special region, called perpersonal space (PPS). This space does not refer to a well-demarcated region with clear borders but on the contrary is fl
Social Uses of War Ruins: Resilience, Commemorations and Heritage – RUINES
The originality of this approach lies in its large- or medium-scale focus on cases, which makes it possible to gauge very precisely the impact of ruins on society. In short, the study will allow us to measure the heuristic value of the notion of «war landscapes«. This project is base on the cooper
Social Transformation in South African Science and Innovation – STIS
This project investigates the integration of excluded groups into social collectives, with an empirical focus on the racial transformation of the South African science system. Since the end of apartheid, South Africa has been in the process of a radical transformation away from a society completel
Social Choice and Social Networks – SCONE
The SCONE project studies social choice in the presence of a social network that links decision-makers. It is built around three research objectives: • OBJ1 - The study of the diffusion of opinions under constraints, in particular the exploration of the links between updating functions computable
Smart machine-tool and HSM process with Emma – SmartEmma
With Industry 4.0, manufacturing machines are equipped with numerous sensors, allowing the collection of process monitoring data, as well as contextualization information. Managing these large volumes of heterogeneous data requires suitable tools and methods. However, this data currently remains unu
Smart Pillared Carbon Materials for Supercapacitors: from fundamental understanding of ion transport to device testing – SPICS
The objectives of the SPICS project are to develop and characterize 3D carbon materials for supercapacitors, designed from graphene sheets assembled using molecular pillars playing an active role in storage processes. The properties of polarity, redox or the poly-electrolytic nature of these pillars
Smart Autonomous Microscopy – SAMic
To meet this challenge, we will pursue three objectives: 1) Applicative, by developing two experimental biology applications for which the use of SAMic is mandatory. 2) Technological by designing the smartCam-LEAD (Localized Events Advanced Detector) module. 3) Proof of concept with the developme
Single-ion hybrid polymer electrolytes for Li-metal battery – SELPHy
The needs for mobile and stationary storage systems will increase sharply in the decade with a market four times larger than the current market. Liquid electrolyte lithium-ion batteries are expected to capture most of this growth. However, these batteries suffer from two drawbacks: safety, which is
Single Nanopore for Analysis of Early Stages of ß-Amyloid Aggregation Leading to Alzheimer’s disease – NANOoligo
Amyloid fibrils are involved in many age-related degenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's diseases, as well as type II diabetes 1. The study of such biological higher-order structures requires the identification of numerous self-assembled cytotoxic intermediates fo
Single Granule oMics to support starch synthetic biochemistry – SinGraMics
Starch is a main storage form of carbon for plants. It is composed by glucose polymers forming water insoluble granules that harbour a wide range of sizes and morphologies regarding to their origin (e.g., plant species, organs, tissues, cells). In addition, starch granules contain minor fractions of
