Opinion dynamics in social networks in presence of multiple decision-makers – NICETWEET
The general objective of the NICETWEET project is to develop a new and complete methodology to analyze social behavior in presence of multiple DMs, and apply it to case studies of social interest (e.g., credence goods, telecommunication, and energy markets WP1: Analysis of advanced OD models in SNs
Understanding and improving trust in scientific truths: an experimental approach – TrustSciTruths
Recent advances in artificial intelligence and machine learning have transformed many fields, including those involving complex human decisions. Whereas automation mainly affected routine jobs, AI is now having an impact on highly skilled professions, sometimes surpassing humans in tasks such as med
Flaviviral transmission enhancer in mosquito saliva – VirSalivaEnhancer
Mosquito-borne flaviviruses, such as dengue, Zika, West Nile virus, and yellow fever, are a growing concern globally. The number of cases continues to increase, especially in tropical and subtropical regions, due to factors such as climate change and urbanization. Because of these same factors, the
Selective remote functionalizations of conjugated aldehydes – RemotAld
The initial objective of this research project is to develop a general radical method for the selective functionalization of alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes in the gamma position. This method is based on the use of photoredox catalysis and should allow the selective construction of C-C, C-O, C-N, o
WAter in TEM – WATEM
Predicting both climate and temperature evolution requires, among other parameters, to quantify properly the contribution of clouds through a better understanding of their formation. Clouds form by condensation of water vapor on particles (aerosols) of varying morphology and chemical composition and
Orchestration in time and space of southeast Tibetan faults, views from geology and geodesy – Tibetan-Orchestra
Despite decades of controversy, our understanding of the formation of the Tibetan Plateau remains limited. The role of competing mechanisms, such as distributed crustal thickening versus lateral propagation of thrust faulting at crustal or lithospheric scales, is still poorly understood. Conceptual
Combination of Motor Imagery and Muscle Stimulation (MIMS) to promote neuromuscular plasticity during limb immobilization – MIMS
Depuis des dizaines d'années, la limitation des nombreuses déficiences motrices qui suivent l'immobilisation d'un membre est une préoccupation majeure des systèmes de santé. Plusieurs méthodes ont été proposées pour réduire la perte de force induite par une immobilisation prolongée. Par exemple, la
Flame Acceleration and Transition to Detonation (FAsTD) in Narrow Channels – FASTD
While the scientific community has recognized that the flame topologies just prior to detonation onset, as well as that of the detonation itself is three-dimensional, surprisingly, no experimental setup has been devised that allows for simultaneous visualization of the phenomenon from 2-directions 2
Phonological Constraints on Language Development in Individuals with Williams Syndrome – SOUNDS
Williams syndrome (WS) is a neurodevelopmental disease characterized by mild to moderate intellectual disability (ID), a heterogeneous cognitive profile, an atypical social behavior, and an unusual acoustic hypersensitivity to noise. The very specific profile of people with WS is probably at least p
Mechanisms of Cell Wall Mechanosensation for the Regulation of Cell Growth – CellWallSense
The Cell Wall (CW) is a thin and stiff layer encasing and protecting bacterial, plants and fungal cells. It undergoes dynamic modifications in mechanics and composition that drive growth, reproduction, and infection. Given the high turgor pressure of walled cells, modifications in wall mechanics ent
