Institut français de bioinformatique
L’Institut Français de Bioinformatique (IFB) est une infrastructure nationale de recherche qui offre des services en bioinformatique (calcul et stockage, développement et déploiement logiciel, bases de connaissances, gestion de données, accompagnement de projets), organise des formations, et partici
Statistical Regionalization Models Intercomparisons and Hydrological Impacts Project – StaRMIP
The aim of this project is to study the uncertainties of statistical regionalization (downscaling) of precipitation (PR) and temperature (T) at high resolution (HR) in the European region (as defined in Euro-CORDEX) and their hydrological impacts in the Mediterranean region. Indeed, this region has
A High-Resolution View on Galaxy Formation with VLT/MUSE – FOGHAR
The issue is to understand how the baryonic matter assembles as time goes on to form galaxies, at what rate stars form in them, and how galaxies exchange gas with their environment. In this perspective, three questions are being intensively investigated: 1) the study of the emitters of the Lyman alp
Discovery of novel enzymes for the valorization of algal biomass – BLUE ENZYMES
Commercial enzymes essentially originate from terrestrial organisms which degrade plant biomass and thus are inefficient or inactive on algal biomass. Although few specific enzymes were discovered the last years (mainly due to the efforts of our group), the pathways for the biodegradation of algal p
Developing Absorptive Capacity In Collaborative Networks To Foster Innovation in SMEs – ACIC
The major aims of the ACIC project are to provide SMEs operating within collaborative networks in industrial clusters, with a novel cost-effective approach and associated tools to enhance innovation within their organisations. This will be achieved by focusing on the following objectives:(i) develop
Dynamics of Transmission: Families, Authority and Knowledge in the Early Modern Middle East (15th-17th centuries) – DYNTRAN
The role of family-type networks in the Middle East from the 15th to the 17th centuries remained understudied and continued to be very regionally or socially focused, despite some punctual research. However family history has become one of the most stimulating fields in Middle Eastern studies in the
Telluride glasses as materials for far-infrared applications : a theoretical and spectroscopic investigation – IRTeGlass
Like most of vitreous materials, the intimate structure of tellurium-based glasses is largely unknown. Therefore, the understanding and optimization of mechanical, optical, and electrical properties of these materials are essentially relying on an empirical set of experimental data and approaches.
Carbon partitioning in nanostructured ferritic phases: kinetics and microstructures – CAP NANO
Q&P (Quenching & Partitioning) is a new annealing route proposed to produce 3rd generation Advanced High Strength Steels. Q&P annealing cycle consists of an interrupted quenching from austenitic soaking to reach a partial martensitic transformation followed by rapid reheating and isothermal holding.
DYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF THE PATTERNING ACTIVITY OF HEDGEHOG IN DROSOPHILA – HHMOVE
While great effort is being made to understand and manipulate the signaling cascade downstream of ligand receptor activation, less attention has been payed to the mecanisms that control Hh transport to target cells. To study these mecanisms, we focus on the processes responsible for Hh release and t
Mobile UnderSEA HAND for whole hand robust grasping – SEAHAND
In a context linked to underwater archaeology and the protection of wrecks located at great depths, the SEAHAND project aimed to develop a marinized robotic gripper carried by an underwater mini-vehicle. The main objective was to replace the archaeologist diver at depths where he or she can no longe
