Social Networks for Natural Disaster: Operational Interpretation – ReSoCIO
Two-thirds of French municipalities are considered to be exposed to natural disasters. Flooding is the most frequent risk, while seismic risk is among the most feared in terms of potential victims. This situation is likely to worsen in the coming decades, due to the combination of an increase in the
Socio-Ecological Approach of Dog-borne zoonotic diseases in Southeast Asia – SEA-dog-SEA
The general objective of SEA-dog-SEA project is to collect and analyse new epidemiological, ecological and social data on dog-human relationships in rural and semi-urban areas in three countries in SEA, in order to design improved awareness, surveillance and control programmes of major dog-associate
Soluble mediators of the immune system against Aspergillus fumigatus – COMASPIN
1. To decipher the influence of Aspergillus fumigatus morphotypes and their cell wall components on the activation of the soluble mediators of the immune system: A. fumigatus cells are covered by a thick cell wall, which is mainly composed of different polysaccharides, pigments and proteins that are
Stopping cognitive decline and dementia by fighting covert cerebral small vessel disease
La maladie des petites artères cérébrales (MPAC) est une des principales causes d’AVC et le principal contributeur vasculaire au risque de démence. Les lésions de MPAC sont très fréquentes en imagerie cérébrale en population générale, en l’absence d’AVC clinique (MPAC occulte), leur prévalence augme
Study of the Volatile Communication in Petunia relying on sesquiterpenoid-induced karrikin pathway – VOLCOM
Plants use their ability to produce volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to communicate with their environment. they are also targets of VOCs released during plant-microbe and plant-plant interactions and within-plant self-signaling. In Petunia, we previously described that sesquiterpenoid VOCs are e
Studying the Anonymization of Publications in Social Sciences – ETAPSS
The project will study the forms and impact of confidentiality and anonymity preservation standards on the ways of writing research in social science journals in France. It will examine how various disciplinary communities manage a notorious contradictory injunction, although little systematically s
Sun light Nitrides and Oxi-Nitrides for energetic applications – SNON
Two main objectives: - first objective: the project manager will coordinate all the activity of the project by organizing at least one meeting per year between the representatives of each partner laboratory, one kick-off meeting at the beginning of the project and a final meeting. - second objecti
Supernova Cosmology Inference – SCInf
The standard model of cosmology is confronted to two serious tensions: the current expansion rate is measured 5s faster than expectations given early cosmic age data (e.g. CMB) ; the dark energy equation of state parameter deviates at the 4s level from what is expected for a simple cosmological co
The Chirality of Genes – CHIRGEN
The asymmetric photochemistry of nucleotide precursor molecules at synchrotron SOLEIL is dependent upon on the chiroptical properties of these molecules and will most certainly initially yield only small enantiomeric excesses (e.e.s), as we have already observed for amino acids. Thus any asymmetry p
The Historical Geography of Upper Mesopotamia in the 2nd Mill. BC. An Interdisciplinary Research Project – HIGEOMES
The geo-strategical situation and the multifold conditions of the natural environment accounted massively for importance of Upper Mesopotamia within the history of the Ancient Near East. The concrete physical parameters of the region influenced the degree and forms of its socio-economic approriation
