Pulsed High Magnetic Field Neutron Scattering – MAGFINS
fields higher than 17 T to its users. Within this ANR project we propose to develop single-crystal neutron
Production of hydrogen from plant biomass using a combination of light and dark fermentation processes – HYCOFOL_BV
The amount of wheat straw produced annually in France is around 18,5 millions tonnes. Its conversion to biohydrogen, a clean energy vector, would allow this waste product (a renewable energy source) to be valorised and would be an alternative to bioethanol pro-duction.
Presubicular head direction cells - cellular properties and synaptic connectivity – Head direction
The presubicular cortex is part of a neuronal circuit coding for spatial information. We dissect the neuro-anatomy and physiology of this small network: we examine how specific cellular currents and firing patterns of presubicular neurons contribute to its functional role, and how inhibitory and excitatory synaptic connections are organized.
Polysaccharides of the lactic acid bacterium Oenococcus oeni : from structure and biosynthetic pathway determination to technological implementation – OENOPOLYS
The species Oenococcus oeni which drives malolactic fermentation (MLF) in most wines, displays, depending on the strain considered, very different capacities to produce exopolysaccharides (EPS). The nature of these polysaccharides, the enzymes involved in their production, their organoleptic impact in wine and their biological role, still unknown, are studied and the implementation possibilities are investigated.
Polymeric membranes made without organic solvent – POMEWISO
Novel polymeric membranes without the use of organic solvent
Photo-induced energy transfer in methylated DNA helices and its relevance to UV damage : an interactive theoretical-experimental study – DNAexciton
It is well established today that absorption of UV radiation by DNA triggers chemical reactions that may provoke mutations of the genetic code, ultimately leading to skin cancer. Therefore, understanding this complex cascade of events is a challenge related to public health. The DNAexciton project focused on the very first events that take place between absorption of UV radiation and chemical reactions.
Phosphorylation/O-GlcNAc interplay in heart failure: pathophysiological roles and interest as biomarkers – PHOGIHF
experimental HF models and in proteomics. The former ANR project granted between the same two partners was
Phenotyping using Metabolomics for Nutritional Epidemiology – PhenoMeNEp
preliminary results obtained with the Agruvasc project (ANR ALIA 2007-2009), in which we clearly discriminated
Participation animation governance and sustainability in eco-disticts – PAGODE
Ecovillages and new experiments in participatory sustainable city.<br /><br /> If they are not the only way to achieve the goal of urban sustainability, the «eco-neighborhoods« are privileged areas of experimentation, observation and promotion of concerns expressed about the «sustainable city«, particularly in terms of participation. They are, in the latter respect, the purpose of the project PAGODE
Parity Non-Conservation in Molecular Systems – NCPCHEM
Chiral molecules can not be superimposed on their mirror image, but are thought to have identical physical and chemical properties. However, a group of researchers are now hunting for a tiny, but important energy difference between left- and right-handed molécules, arising from the weak force of Nature.
