Mechanical Energy Storage and Absorption in Microporous Materials by High-Pressure Intrusion of Electrolyte Solutions – MESAMM
The project is devoted to development of new highly efficient heterogeneous lyophobic systems for mechanical energy storage and absorption based on high pressure intrusion-extrusion of electrolyte solutions in hydrophobic microporous materials such as pure-silica zeolites (zeosils) and Metal-Organic
Inverse modelling of BLACK Carbon emissions using real time data from NETworked sensors – BLACKNET
International programmes that have attempted to simulate the effects of BC on climate in ESA have emphasised that better spatially and temporally resolved emission inventories are crucial to improving climate models and forecasts. BLACKNET proposes to operationally demonstrate a new low-cost syst
Realistic modelling for Earth's magnetic field reversals – revEarth
The overarching goal of this project is to understand Earth’s magnetic field reversals using convective geodynamo simulations that operate in the low viscosity and strong magnetic field regime, while exhibiting polarity reversals that are not driven by inertia. 1) The implementation of the AMS rare
Topological IV-VI semiconductor heterostructures: A platform to study topological phase transitions and strain sensitive topology – TOPO-PLATFORM
Topological insulators (TI) are insulators that present conductive states at the interface that they form with conventional insulators, protected from dissipation by certain symmetries of the system. In the lead salts (PbSnSe/Te) that we are studying the symmetry involved is crystal symmetry rather
Redox regulation of plant HDAC activity in response to climate change – REPHARE
1. Study of redox post-translational modifications of Arabidopsis HDACs under normal and high ambient temperature conditions and identification of redox regulators involved in modifications of the HDACs. 2. Study of redox regulation of HDAC functions in histone acetylation and gene expression. Con
Morphogenesis, organization and functions of liquid viral factories formed by Mononegavirales – LiquidFact
Viral replication takes place in specific compartments called viral factories (VF). Their physicochemical nature and the molecular basis of their morphogenesis and organization are poorly understood. The VFs of RABV are the bodies of Negri (NB) that are cytoplasmic inclusions harboring the synthesi
pH Observation of Extracellular Fluid by NMR Involving Xenon – PHOENIX
Extracellular pH is determined by the net flux of acid and base into and out of the extracellular fluid; it provides crucial clues on the metabolism of living organisms. On the other hand, the control of pH is critical for the maintenance and regulation of organ and cell function, as is evident from
Innovative formulations based on deep eutectic solvents for the treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis. – ParasiDES
They are numerous studies concerning the topical delivery of antiparasitic drug for the treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis. However, these formulations are not always effective, are expensive and complex or use aqueous solvents, that can be detrimental to stability in particular. So there is a nee
IntEgrated verticAl Modulator onto VCSEL for ultra high speed optical interconnects – EAM-VCSEL
Therefore, the main objective is to demonstrate single-channel data rates in the 100 Gb/s range at 850 nm under operating conditions and environmental requirements as set by relevant applications. Our technological approach consists in the monolithic vertical integration of an electro-absorptive mod
Search engine for environmental genomic sequencing data – SeqDigger
The central objective of this proposal is to provide an ultra fast and user-friendly search engine that compares a query sequence, typically a read or a gene (or a small set of such sequences), against the exhaustive set of all available data corresponding to one or several large-scale (meta)genomic
