Restriction of SARS-CoV2 replication by non-coding and unreferenced genes in human cells – DARK-COVID
The DARK-COVID project articulates 3 main breakthroughs: - The first whole transcriptomic analysis performed on sorted human cells positive or not for SARS-CoV2 antigens to get insights into the host response to SARS-CoV2 (WP1) - The first exhaustive description of misregulated lncRNAs and unrefer
Geographical and temporal serological investigation of companion animal infection with SARS-CoV-2 during the second wave of COVID-19 in France – CoVet
After a significant drop in the number of COVID-19 cases during the summer of 2020, Europe is facing since October 2020 a terrific second epidemic wave reaching magnitude as worried and dramatic as the first wave that occurred between January and June 2020. Besides the dramatic health, social and ec
Photonic Integrated Circuit with System on Chip for Sub-Picometric Displacement Sensor – PICSONDE
The PICSONDE project aims to offer on-board laser vibrometers with real-time processing of interferometric signals exploiting optical feedback injection (OFI or “Optical Feedback Interferometry”) by an integrated photonic circuit combined with a signal processing system on Chip (SoC) to perform in
Multiscale Sensing For Disease Monitoring In Vineyard Production – MERIAVINO
The Meriavino project aims to help winegrowers access real-time information and diagnostics to make agronomic decisions. The aim is to improve monitoring processes using multi-scale remote sensing and Internet of Things (IoT) devices, on interconnected vineyard plots, with a non-invasive, eco-friend
Sampling Rare Climate Events – SAMPRACE
Rare and extreme event statistics are characterized by the average time between two occurrences, called return time. Estimating the return times of a heatwave with a surface temperature exceeding a high threshold (return level) during a month, is a crucial question for public agencies. In order to p
Solar iron metallurgy based on renewable or bio-sourced reducers – MetaSol
The present project addresses an emblematic and central energy-demanding process of our society: metallurgy. The reduction of iron oxide into metallic iron, steel and cast iron using coke is the process that gave rise to the industrial revolution, clearly taking advantage of the high-energy density
Integrated approach to active materials, process and control for dexterous manipulation with soft grippers – MANIMAT
The objective of the MANIMAT project (dexterous MANIpulation with active and soft MATerials) is to provide a solution to the scientific and technological challenge of obtaining a soft gripper adapted simultaneously to the versatility of object grasping with passive shape adaptation and to the modifi
PHOtoresponsive Nonlinear Optical Monolayers – PHONOM
The PHONOM project aims at designing self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) based on photoresponsive NLO switches, targeting primarily systems for applications in optical communication or data storage. The project relies on a multidisciplinary approach encompassing numerical simulations, molecular synthes
Polarized super-resolution imaging for live conformational imaging – 3DPolariSR
The 3DPolariSR project aims at imaging the orientational modifications of proteins in polarized super-resolution fluorescence imaging. The consortium aims to build a prototype in the form of a module adaptable to optical microscopy, eventually transferred to the industrial partner. A feasibility stu
Emergent communication through curiosity-driven multi-agent reinforcement learning – ECOCURL
The ECOCURL project is grounded in the following hypotheses: • H1: Intrinsically-motivated learning can encourage emergent communication in cooperative multi-agent environments by guiding the agents towards the autonomously discovery of a diverse set of skills for improving their control over the e
