Oral exposure and gut-targeted toxicity of PFOA and its precursor 8:2 FTOH under chronic stress: when high-resolution chemical imaging bridges food toxicology – FLUO-GUT
Les substances perfluoroalkylées (PFAS) sont utilisés depuis plus de 60 ans dans un grand nombre de produits industriels. Le PFOA, l'un des représentants majeurs des PFAS, se caractérise par une forte persistance dans l'environnement malgré les restrictions d'utilisation, une présence ubiquitaire et une toxicité avérée. Le projet FLUO-GUT vise à une meilleure compréhension de son devenir après ingestion et des perturbations induites sur la sphère digestive et sur l’axe intestin/foie.

Green process for microbial decontamination based on light and humidity control – GreenDeconta
The use of fungicides and bactericides is the main current solution to control microbial contamination in the food industry. However, this solution leads to environmental and toxicological issues. The GreenDeconta project proposes to characterize microbial responses of spoilage microorganisms to high power light treatments in order to develop a sustainable microbial decontamination process.

Plankton interactions, their environmental determinants and biological/geochemical consequences in the southern Senegal cOastal LABoratory – SOLAB
Coastal oceans and the services they provide are of great importance to coastal populations. These regions are subject to strong anthropogenic pressures (warming, deoxygenation, acidification, eutrophication, overfishing, and various pollutions) that interact with each other, and can spread/amplify. In order to manage and anticipate these effects, tools for monitoring and managing the marine environment are essential.
Non linear Atmospheric Response to Sea surface temperature for a physically consistent ENSO (El Niño Southern Oscillation) paradigm – ARiSE
ENSO is the dominant climate variability phenomenon on earth. It develops as the result of air-sea interactions in the tropical Pacific, and has major societal impacts globally. Understanding and modelling ENSO correctly is thus a pre-requisite for seasonal climate prediction. ENSO’s warm (El Niño) and cold (La Niña) phases are not symmetrical, with much larger amplitude (extreme) El Niño than La Niña events.
Role of the SAGA co-activator complex in transcription during cell differentiation in mammals – SAGA-Retina
SAGA is a coactivator complex with histone acetyl transferase activity, deubiquitinase activity, and can bind the TATA-binding protein, TBP. Using novel approaches, we recently discovered that SAGA is indispensable for the expression of the majority of genes in yeast. Little is known about the function of SAGA in mammalian cells. This project aims at better understanding the function of the SAGA complex for RNA polymerase II transcription in mammalian cells.
