Rational design of chemosensory compounds targeting smell, taste and emotion – chemosim
ChEmoSim is a fundamental and highly multidisciplinary project. It gathers academic experts in computational modeling, protein engineering, neuroscience, and a company expert in sensory analysis. The research hypothesis is that numerical models can crack the code of chemosensory sensations. To achie
Efficiency and reliability enhancement of a multi-source DC microgrid dedicated to residential applications by integrating bi-Level managements – EREMITE
Despite of its numerous advantages and extensive applications, DC microgrid is still relatively a novel technology and its grid architectures, control strategies, stabilization techniques and so on deserve tremendous research efforts. In both European and French scales, as more and more renewable DC
Risks and Uncertainties under Climate Change
The RISCCI project began in September 2018, and its core development has been the creation of an ensemble platform to explore parametric uncertainty in the MeteoFrance climate model, CNRM CM6. The simulations informing the scientific deliverables have now been completed, one paper is in final revis
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
Attitudes towards vaccines and competence to consent to vaccination against COVID-19 in individuals with schizophrenia – SCHIZOVAC
The main aims of our project is to assess : 1. Attitudes towards vaccines and intention to vaccinate against COVID-19 in individual with schizophrenia compared to nonclinical participants 2. Competence to consent to COVID 19 vaccines in patients compared to nonclinical participants 3. Clinical,
Modeling and Extracting Complex Information from Natural Language Text – NoRDF
We want to enrich knowledge bases with events, causation, conditions, precedence, stories, negation, and beliefs. In particular, we will investigate the expression of sentiment. We want to extract this type of information at scale from structured and unstructured sources, and we want to allow mac
Glacial--Interglacial variations of the carbon cycle induced by climatic changes in Himalaya – GI-NOAH
The work plan for this project includes: 1) chronological calibration by the use of pollen assemblages and the analysis of oxygen isotopes of foraminifera shells. 2) On the basis of chronological information, sampling and treatment of samples (washing and controlled decarbonation) in view of miner
Agglomerated powders for thick ceramic coatings by solid-state dynamic spraying – CERASOL
To achieve this, the main objectives are: (1) to improve the understanding and control of macro and micro deformation, adhesion and layer construction mechanisms from specific agglomerated powders deposited on a rough metallic substrate, (2) to establish the influence of the nature of the material
HOMinin TECHnology Cognition, motricity and behaviour of the first stone-tool makers – HOMTECH
Over the past 20 years, new discoveries and studies have revealed an unexpected archaeological record of increased, an hominin diversity associated with a complex evolutionary history. In this context, understanding past hominin diversity in terms of taxonomy, diet, locomotor skills and cultural beh
Biodiversité, Agroécosystèmes, Société, Climat
The overarching objectives of the LabEx BASC are to develop and mobilize science to support improvements in the provision of food, fiber and bioenergy for people, while at the same reducing the negative impacts of human activities on biodiversity, ecosystem services, the climate, and the quality of
