Recovery or cell death in stress-exposed bacteria – NOVOREP
Bacteria are frequently exposed to harmful or unfavourable conditions, not only in their natural environment, but also in industrial applications or when exposed to the human defence system or antibiotics. Bacteria have evolved a number of defence, stress response and repair mechanisms, which are cr
Unravelling the Mars’ atmosphere Main Mysteries (MCUBE) – MCUBE
The M3 project is led by the desire to promote one of the most productive partnerships in the Mars exploration community and entertained by two laboratories in France (LATMOS) and Russia (IKI). These two laboratories are engaged together in the space exploration through ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter (TG
Inferring Folding Pattern Specific U-Bundle Atlases – IFOPASUBA
At a macroscopic level, information transfer in the human brain results from both short-range connections between adjacent areas and long-range connections between distant areas. An imbalance between long-range and short-range connections is thought to be associated with autism spectrum disorder (AS
Optimising the use of discretionary salt – SalEtMieux
The Sal&Mieux collaborative project gathers the expertise of 5 academic partners with the aim to evaluate and to enhance the sensory availability and perception of discretionary salt, as a function of actual consumers’ salting practices during food cooking and seasoning, in order to provide stakehol
Enhancing the Quality and the Level of Internal Protections of Shell Eggs – EQLIPSE
Controlling egg quality is essential for the egg industry. Certain alterations, induced by external factors such as the hen age or egg storage conditions for example, can indeed lead to negative impacts at the health and economic levels. Current husbandry practices tend towards an increase in the pr
Sphingosine-1-phosphate Signaling in the Peripheral Vasculature. – SphiPerVasc
In three work packages we shall address: 1) The capacity of luminal and vessel wall produced S1P and S1P receptors to support myogenic tone and flow-mediated dilation of resistance arteries as well as total renal vascular resistance. 2) The sources of S1P that sustain endothelial S1PR1 activation
The HUman Supply cHain behind smart technologies – HUSH
The production of artificial intelligence (AI) solutions relies on the crucial, yet often invisible, contribution of “microworkers” in long global production chains. These workers perform microtasks essential to preparing the data needed for AI development, such as labeling images or verifying trans
Trillions of gut microbes to rescue AED: the microbiome associated to clinical response in children epilepsy – TrilliAED
The TrilliAED project’s objectives are to i) demonstrate the link between the human microbiome and response to AED in children, ii) unravel the microbiome in early-life and its role in AED response, iii) define why and how specific microbiomes may sustain or boost AED efficacy, lowering adverse even
Global Enamels: A Symmetrical History of Cultural and Technological Exchanges Between France and China (mid-17th to end 18th Century) – EnamelFC
This project is part of the new directions in global history recently initiated by English and American scholars who have emphasized the importance of objects as sources in studies of both material culture and circulations over long distances. Proponents of the turnaround in perspectives derived fro
Biomechanical cost quantification for wheelchair accessible cities – CapaCITIES
The manual wheelchair (MWC) is currently the most efficient device to restore locomotion when lower limb functions are, temporarily or definitively, impaired. However, MWC locomotion is a strenuous form of ambulation for the musculoskeletal system as the upper-limbs of the MWC user are permanently u
