Surface structuration for high mobility Silicon Carbide MOSFETs – riseMOS
Sustainable energy production and efficient energy conversion are major concerns of our society. Silicon carbide (SiC) metal-oxide semiconductor transistors (MOSFETs) have thus taken on strategic importance in decentralized electrical distribution grids or electrical system controls. They increase s
Epiphytism as a Fungal Ecosystem conquered by Vascular Plants – EPIFUN
EPIFUN investigates the diversity and structure of fungal communities (Fungi) in tropical epiphytic environments, and the symbioses that are formed with the roots of epiphytic plants (orchids, ferns, lycophytes, etc.). We seek to understand the spatial structure of different functional groups of fun
Random PhoXonic Surface – RANDOM
discover new photonic and phononic physical behaviors in relation with a random distribution controlled by mathematical rules (order/disorder transition, hyperuniformity, percolation paths, Anderson type localization), (ii) to co-localize photons and phonons on randomly distributed sites and to enha
CLImate relevant processing of Mineral Dust by volatile Organic compounds – CLIMDO
CLIMDO investigates the heterogeneous interaction of mineral dust with two of the most common organic SOA precursors: glyoxal and methylglyoxal from ubiquitous anthropogenic and biogenic sources The work carried out so far consists of IMT-DOUAI (partner 2): The heterogeneous interaction of ethanedi
PHOTOASSISTED PRODUCTION OF HYDROGEN FROM UREA OXIDATION – HYUREA
The project is structured in 4 parts: (1) the development of 100 cm2 nanostructured Fe2O3 photoanodes decorated with Ni-Metal nanocatalysts for efficient solar energy conversion (UV-Vis) with photocurrents above 5 mA/cm2 in the presence of urea in urine (0.33 M). (2) the development of an efficien
Aeroclipper Cyclone Intensity Observation – MICA
Tropical cyclones are a major threat for many countries. They generate strong winds and deadly floods that damage buildings and infrastructure and severely disrupt civil and military organization. A precise forecast of the trajectory and intensity of tropical cyclones makes it possible to take the n
Role of cAMP signalosomes in cardiomyocyte senescence and age-associated heart failure – SIGNALAGE
Recently, senescent cells accumulation has emerged as a main driver of age-associated diseases. In the lab, we have recently shown that aged cardiomyocytes acquire a senescent-like phenotype characterized by persistent telomere DNA damage and activation of classical markers of senescence. In additio
High-temperature & high-polarization cuprate multiferroics – HTHPCM
The main goal of this project is the search of high-temperature and high-polarization cuprate multiferroics (HTHPCM), i.e. (1) with a large ME-MF coupling and thus large PS, (2) operating at room-temperature (RT), and (3) showing an electric-field magnetization reversal. Our idea is to investiga
Regulatory networks governing craniofacial muscle diversity – MyoHead
Branchiomeric muscles of the head and neck share a common origin in cardiopharyngeal mesoderm (CPM) with parts of the heart derived from second heart field cardiac progenitor cells. Clonal analysis has identified three common skeletal and cardiac muscle lineages along the anterior-posterior axis of
Looking for proteins regulating Peptidoglycan synthases – LookingForPegase
The major objective of this project is to investigate the cellular function of new PBP regulators in the assembly of the bacterial cell wall using two different gram-positive bacterial models. In addition, we will also test if these regulators can affect bacterial resistance to ß-lactam antibiotic
