On the Cognitive principles underlying operational biases in the temporal domain – CoPrOBTeD
1. Functional locus of the TME Does the TME emerge during perception or during the motoric reproduction? To test this notion, we will separate the perceptual and cognitive processing stages from the motor production phase by asking participants to judge whether the estimated outcome is larger than
Oligoesters migrating from food can coatings – Filling risk assessment gaps – Oligo
Epoxy-resins based on bisphenol A (BPA) diglycidyl ether have traditionally been used worldwide in internal coatings applied to metallic food contact materials. Due to concerns of both consumers and the scientific community, restrictions have been applied at the EU scale on the use of BPA, including
Odorant Binding Proteins-based biomimetic optical nose – OBP-optinose
Today, there is a growing demand for sensitive and selective detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in various domains such as environment monitoring, public safety, quality control, non-invasive medical diagnostics. Traditional methods, though accurate and reliable, require expensive equipm
ORAI3 loss drives neuroendocrine transdifferentiation of prostate cancer – AURORA
Calcium is a second messenger involved in various intracellular signaling pathways regulating proliferation, apoptosis, secretion and migration. These calcium signalings require in particular a fine regulation of the exchanges of calcium ions between the extracellular medium and the cytosol ensured
Nuclear export of Influenza RNA segments – NEPTUNE
Influenza A virus (IAV) is a highly infectious respiratory pathogen that continues to be a significant threat to global public health. Wild aquatic birds being the natural hosts for most IAV, they also infect multitudinous animal species in addition to humans. Due to his wildlife circulation and thr
Novel strategies for Osteoarthritis treatment based on innate LYMPhoId Cells modulation. – OLYMPiC2024
Our Franco-German consortium aims at: - Deciphering the diversity and spatial distribution of ILC in joint tissues at different stages of OA and the correlation with the clinical features of the patients. - Investigating the contribution of ILC subsets to the pathophysiology of OA and evaluating the
Novel materials as electrode and electrolyte components in fuel cell technology – C-MOF.cell
The overall objective of the project is to develop more efficient and affordable fuel cells using advanced functional materials. Four specific objectives will be reached using a complementary approach: 1) exhaustive theoretical screening and understanding of mechanisms occurring in advanced multifun
Novel Fungal Lipids AMinoacylation Systems – N-FLAMS
We recently showed that ergosterol (Erg), a major sterol in fungal membranes, can be aminoacylated by an enzyme we discovered: Ergosterol Aspartate synthase (ErdS). This enzyme aminoacylates the 3’OH of Erg with aspartate (Asp) yielding ergosteryl-aspartate (Erg-Asp). We also discovered a second pro
Non-Fullerene-Acceptor based polymer solar cells with 15% efficiency and 10-year lifetime – NFA-15
Polymer solar cells (PSC) are promising technologies for production of photovoltaic solar energy at low cost. Thanks to their flexibility, semi-transparency and color tuning PSCs are only interesting for building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV), but also unique energy provider for indoor and consumer
Non linear Atmospheric Response to Sea surface temperature for a physically consistent ENSO (El Niño Southern Oscillation) paradigm – ARiSE
Over the last decade, many studies have identified nonlinear oceanic and atmospheric processes that appear to play a key role in ENSO asymmetries. There is however currently no consensus on the relative importance of those various oceanic and atmospheric processes in determining the overall ENSO asy
