Quantitative Understanding of Nanoscale heat Transport from iron oxide nanoparticles' surface during Hyperthermia – QUANT
Exploiting magneto-induced hyperthermia in magnetic nanomaterials has been the subject of extensive investigation for its potential applications in anti-cancer medicine, diagnostics and catalysis. Despite the extensive literature on this topic, there is still a need for a detailed understanding of t
Quantification des émissions de CO2 en Ile-de-France – CO2-MEGAPARIS
Atmospheric CO2 concentration has increasedby more than 30% since the pre-industrial era mainly due to industrial emissions and this increase is very likely at the root of the observed temperature rise of 0.6°C over the last century. Although we have good estimates of the CO2 fluxes on a global basi
QUAntum Simulations and Assessment of NanOdeVice Architectures – QUASANOVA
During more than four decades, the scaling of the transistors induced an improvement of their performances. However, it is unanimously recognized that new architectures will be necessary to reach gate length of the order of 10 nm as planned in the next generations of transistors. In this context, th
Pyrolyse rapide de la biomasse des déchets: double cinétique
The decarbonization of both the energy and chemical industry sectors is a major challenge. The Pyrokine project by allowing us to dive into the heart of the Fast pyrolysis process is helping us to assess and further progress on the process modeling development; and therefore, unleash the potential o
Pseudopaline trafficking in Pseudomonas aeruginosa – PseudoTraffic
Metallophores are molecules with a high affinity for metals, synthesized, secreted and recovered by bacteria in order to ensure constant availability of metals, especially in most hostile environments such as the one encountered during bacterial infection of a host. In this context, we have recently
Propositional Reasoning for Large-Scale Optimization. Application to Clean Energy Mobility Issues – Massal'IA
We are in a scenario where SAT-based problem solving is highly competitive on decision problems, and Max-SAT-based approaches have been proposed for optimization problems. Max-SAT is a consolidated research line, but the performance of the solvers needs to be improved for large scale real applicatio
Property Changes of Multiphasic Fluids by Geometrical Confinement in Advanced Mesoporous Materials – NanoLiquids
- A first objective is the assessment of the physical properties of the bulk binary solvents. Especially at the mesoscopic scale, there exists a growing number of evidences that supramolecular order and dynamical heterogeneities develop in liquids (especially H-bonded, binary systems, viscous, or su
Programed genetic transformation: Staphylococcus aureus as a new model organism – GenTranSa
Areas of active research in this field include the regulation of competence, the evolutionary function of competence (genome plasticity, antibiotic resistance spreading) and the mechanisms of exogenous DNA natural transformation (transport and processing). In this project, I propose to investigate a
Probing interstitial fLUid hoMEostasis with an Organ on Chip platform to investigate solute transport in tissues – PLUME_2
Tissue homeostasis depends on the coordinated functions of blood and lymphatic vessels, along with connective tissues, to regulate the absorption and drainage of nutrients, gases, hormones, and cellular waste. While the Starling principle has long served as a model for solute transport, the dynamics
Predictive Maintenance of transportation systems under incomplete and imprecise data – MAPSYD
The original contributions of the MAPSYD project can be broken down according to the themes below: - Dependability : The first innovative element is the integration of the dependability in the process of predictive identification of system failures. - Predictive modeling in the presence of unc
