From lip- to script-reading: An integrative view of audio-visual associations in language processing
The early exposure to speech and speakers’ articulatory gestures is the basis of language acquisition and is a fingerprint of audiovisual association learning. Is this initial ability to associate speech sounds and visual inputs a precursor of infants’ reading ability? Answering this question requires a good understanding of the developmental trajectory, cognitive and neural bases of both language abilities and of how they interact in the language system. This is the aim of the present program.

Mechanisms of Natural Killer T cell effector differentiation
NKT cells represent a critical component of the mammalian immune system. Due to their wide functional repertoire, they are poised as interesting candidates for future cell-based immunotherapies. This is likely due to the presence of discrete functional subsets that emerge from a complex and ill-defined developmental program in the thymus. In this context, our proposal endeavours to better define the mechanisms associated with the acquiistion of these functions.

COmoros & maYotte: vOlcanism, TEctonics and Seismicity
To understand the unprecedented telluric event of the Mayotte seismo-volcanic crisis, it appears essential to reach a critical level of knowledge on the evolution of the seismic, volcanic and geodetic deformation, but also on the geodynamic context, including the kinematics and the characterization of the lithospheric and crustal structures, including both short and long-term and regional and local scales. The results would allow to assess better the volcanic and seismic hazards of the area.
High-throughput screening tools for a reinforced chemical safety surveillance of food
The European Parliament has called on Member States to strengthen their food safety control mechanisms by 2019. In July 2018, the French government has launched the SCA platform to strengthen the coverage and the efficiency of the surveillance. To reach this objective, it is necessary for both food safety authorities and industry to get high-throughput and cost-effective screening methods to monitor priority hazards throughout the food chain.
Adapting linguistic representations during social interactions: a dynamic view of spoken human communication
The purpose of the project is to examine how spontaneous interactive cues conveyed during social interactions contribute to learning and knowledge co-construction. Even though convergence and feedback can be described as reflecting the speakers’ attempts to improve mutual comprehension, it is still unknown whether speakers adapt their linguistic representations after an interaction.
