Photovoltaics Integration into Grid with distributed storage – PARADISE
PV integrated to distribution grids with high renewables integration
2 Volt Organic battery deveLopment & implemenTAtion – VOLTA
lead/manage this project. For a few years, batteries have already experienced a strong development with various [...] applications of Li-based batteries, and will end by a first prototyping of high performance organic batteries [...] batteries is clearly expected to keep on growing. A possible brake towards such large scale perspectives
3D X-Ray and FTIR imaging for routine histopathology in chronic kidney disease – 3DXIR-Pathology
propose a new strategy to solve this problem, based on combining high-resolution TXM with a novel development [...] We propose the development of a new diagnostic strategy by image-guided biopsy using transmission X-Ray [...] morphological and molecular/biochemical features of a pathological tissue. The application example for
A COmbination of systems Biology and experimental high-throughput approaches to engIneer durable Resistance against plAnt viruses in crops – COBRA
Plant viruses cause an estimated 50 billion € loss worldwide per year. They represent one of the most limiting factors in European crop production. The best and safest practice would be the introduction of resistance traits in crop plants. The scope of COBRA is to intensify applied and fundamental research on plant/virus interactions in order to diversify targets for resistance gene pyramiding strategies and to match the research outputs with industry and breeding applications.
A Critical and Comparative Research on Food Heritage and Gastropolitics – FOODHERIT

As a consequence, food cultures have moved to the center of a triangulation between [...] three lines of research to reach its objectives. a) Examine the link between food heritage and cultural [...] heritagezation? FOODHERIT marks the emergence of a dynamic field of research and of an interdisciplinary
A High-Resolution View on Galaxy Formation with VLT/MUSE – FOGHAR
The FOGHAR project consisted in exploiting the Guranteed Time Observations of MUSE, an integral field spectrograph that has been operating on the Very Large Telescope since the summer of 2014, in order to improve our understanding of the processes of galaxy formation and evolution, thanks to the sensitivity, spatial resolution, and angular resolution of this cutting-edge instrument.
A SYSTEMATIC BREAKDOWN OF STIMULUS-RESPONSE ASSOCIATIONS – SRA
Associative learning is used by humans and animals alike to achieve goals in their environment more efficiently. Associative Stimulus-Response learning results in neural economy and automatisation of behaviours. However, the mechanisms that lead to this automatisation are still largely unknown. This project aims at breaking down the mechanisms that lead to a stimulus in the environment being associated to a particular response and how these associations are affected by reinforcement.
A genomic approach to identify postzygotic mutations in mosaic developmental diseases involving the skin – MOSAIC
A large number of developmental diseases may be caused by mutations that occur early during embryogenesis [...] s (called "postzygotic" mutations) and result in a mosaic organism composed of genetically different [...] populations despite their common origin. Among them, a large group of sporadic developmental diseases with
A study of job quality for cleaning occupations – CLEAN

A survey will be conducted on a sample of persons employed in four [...] the last ten years. These occupations represent now a high potential for employment and by now, account
A systems biology approach to improve poplar biorefinery feedstock by deciphering the genetic architecture of lignocellulosic biomass production and quality – SYBIOPOP
Lignocellulosic biomass from poplar is a renewable resource of interest for biorefinery. However, current varieties have not been selected for this specific purpose. It is therefore crucial to study the variability and genetic determinism of traits that affect the yield and quality of lignocellulosic biomass in poplar.
