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.
Orchestration in time and space of southeast Tibetan faults, views from geology and geodesy – Tibetan-Orchestra
The eastern edge of the Tibetan Plateau is a key location to study the interplay between strike-slip motions and thickening through time and understand the regional orchestration between lateral propagation and crustal thickening of the plateau .
Ordered Porous Inorganic Fluorides as efficient Heterogeneous Catalysts – OPIFCat
The innovation of this project is to prepare inorganic fluorinated materials as efficient, selective and stable catalysts under the harsh fluorination conditions of chlorinated reagents under HF gas. It aims to understand the catalyst structure-activity relationship and to establish a “catalyst library” with various strength of Lewis acidity which will help chemists to rapidly select the most appropriate catalyst for the Cl/F exchange as a function of the reactant characteristics.

Origin and function of the pituitary generator of GH pulses – GH-Gen
The project addresses a critical function in humans and all vertebrates: how are build-up the pulsatile secretion of GH that regulates body growth and metabolism? Our working hypothesis is that the functional network organisation of pituitary GH-secreting somatotrophs decodes fast hypothalamic GHRH inputs in order to transmit this information as slowly-evolving waves of calcium oscillations which leads to circhoral GH pulses into the bloodstream
Original Scalable Quantum Mechanical Strategies to Refine High-Resolution Crystallographic Structures of Macromolecules – QuMacroRef
Nowadays, due to impressive technical and financial efforts, ultra-high resolution and quality X-ray diffraction datasets for macromolecules (mainly proteins) are available and their number will increase in the next years. At the moment, there are no methods able to fully exploit the richness of information intrinsically contained in these new sets of data. To overcome this drawback, it is necessary to introduce new quantum mechanics-based techniques to successfully refine structures of proteins
Origins of divergence – The causes of pre- and post-zygotic isolation barriers in Spodoptera frugiperda – ORIGINS
This project aims at deciphering the factors at play in the divergence of the two sympatric strains of the fall armyworm (FAW) named corn- and rice-strain from their preferences for different host plants . This noctuid moth is an ideal model organism to investigate different reproductive barriers causing speciation. While indistinguishable, the two strains can be differentiated genetically, and they exhibit phenotypic differences that can function as pre-or post-zygotic reproductive barriers.
