Towards more sustainable wastewater treatments: Taking into consideration the TRANSformation PROducts of organic micropollutants – TRANSPRO
Water is, and will become more and more, a scarce resource that should be protected especially taking into consideration chemical contamination. One of contaminant inputs in aquatic ecosystems is related to wastewater treatment plant effluents. Indeed the various used treatments even if efficient re
Towards exoskeleton-human symbiosis: investigating how humans interact with an upper-limb robotic exoskeleton – EXOMAN
The overall objective of the EXOMAN project is to improve the symbiosis between humans and exoskeletons. To do so, we plan to produce new fundamental knowledge on Human-Exoskeleton Interaction (HEI) by focusing on the human dimension. The use of exoskeletons is promising in the fields of ergonomics
Towards effIcient bloCkchain-based disTributed SDN ArchiteCtures – TIC-TAC-SDN
According to a recent Gartner’s report, one million new Internet of Things (IoT) devices will be sold every hour by 2021, which inevitably comes along with new challenges and demands in terms of high bandwidth, security, ubiquitous accessibility and dynamic management of communication networks. Soft
Towards clinical investigation on the use of Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonist for wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration – MR-A-MD
Strategies that aim at extending the duration of anti-VEGF effects (gene therapy, small antibodies, implantable reservoir) will not benefit to all patients because VEGF is not the only molecular target in AMD31. MR-A-AMD aims at validating that MR pathway is a novel and pertinent target to be tested
Towards a comprehensive model of plant plasma membrane lipid bilayer – PLAYMOBIL
Elucidation of the molecular basis of plasma membrane organization appears necessary to understand how plants adapt to environmental changes. A crucial point in this respect concerns the asymmetry between the two PM sheets and their coupling, which is currently poorly described. This interdisciplina
Towards a Unified theory of biotic Interactions: the roLe of environmental
Le LabEx a repris un fonctionnement quasi-normal en 2022 après les années de transition 2020 et 2021. Recherche : Le LabEx contribue de manière significative aux avancées majeures dans les principales thématiques de recherche qu’il couvre (adaptation, interactions biotiques, bi
Towards Ligand-Induced Fluorescent Proteins – InducedFluo
The InducedFluo proposal focuses on modeling, with tailored hybrid theoretical tools, processes related to excited-states in ligand embedded biological systems. In the new and very promising area of ligand-induced fluorescence protein, we aim to be the pioneer computational group to fully explore th
Towards Industrialisation of Direct Liquid Injection CVD Process for Alkaline Niobate Thin Films – LINKS
These developments could open new possibilities of further miniaturization and the integration of next-generation MEMS, acoustic rf filters, ferroelectronic, and nanophotonic devices (ex. for 5G applications). The fabrication of high-quality alkaline niobate films at industrial scale is hindered by
Toward a multi-stakeholder socio-seismological observation network for seismic risk reduction in Haiti – OSMOSE
Over the past 50 years, earthquakes cost US$ 800 billions – mostly developed countries – and 1.3 million human lives – mostly in developing countries. While these figures show no sign of inflection, risk awareness continues to apply the classic approach where knowledge owned by scientists is transla
Toward Non-Invasive Ultrasound Surgery – TONUS
There are two main forms of liver tumors: primary hepatic cancer (cancer that starts in the liver, mainly hepatocellular carcinoma) and liver metastases from other tumors, mainly of the gastrointestinal tract (colon or rectum). In 2017, approximately 63,400 new cases of primary liver cancer were rep
