Innovative Inner Ear Treatments – INI
The overall aim of INI is to overcome the fundamental hurdle of the blood-cochlear barrier and to allow opening up new horizons for novel therapeutic strategies using innovative medical implants and intratympanic gels to treat ear ailments. Specific objectives include: - Development of liposome-
Bio-inspired dipolar dyes for solution processing of organic solar cells – Chalcones
Scientifically and technologically, but also economically, dye chemistry has represented a major field of activity in chemical industry and academic research since the 19th century. Nowadays, dye sciences are facing new exciting challenges. Given the announced shortage in fossil fuels, alternative e
Imagerie Nanométrique Femtoseconde par diffraction X cohérente – I-NanoX
A microscope resolution is limited by the illuminating wavelength. Alternative techniques that can break this barrier are not compatible with time resolved studies of ultrafast phenomena. Changing the spectral domain is a way to solve that problem. However, usual visible techniques cannot be transpo
Hereditary classes of graphs – HEREDIA
Hereditary properties of graphs provide a general perspective to study graph properties. Several important general theorems were obtained, and the approach offers an elegant way of unifying notions and proof techniques. Further, hereditary classes of graphs play a central role in graph theory. Besid
SMART FRAMEWORK FOR REAL-TIME MONITORING AND CONTROL OF SUBSURFACE PROCESSES IN MANAGED AQUIFER RECHARGE APPLICATIONS – SMART-Control
The main objective of the SMART-Control project is to reduce the risks in the application of sustainable groundwater management techniques worldwide through the development and implementation of an innovative web-based, real-time monitoring and control system (RMCS) in combination with risk assessme
Development of a new Biocontrol Agent to reduce AflaToxin B1 contamination in maize crops for sustainable agriculture – DEBAAT
This project aims to develop the first biocontrol agent (BCA) from bacterial origin to effectively control aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) contamination of maize crops. AFB1 is a human carcinogenic mycotoxin produced by Aspergillus flavus, a filamentous fungus, emerging on maize in Europe and in France in respo
High performance numerical architecture for Distributed Acoustic Sensing – ANTIPASTI
The deployment of DAS (Distributed Acoustic Sensing) system is booming both for civilian, military and intelligence applications. In particular, these systems enable underwater passive acoustic surveillance. Currently available DAS systems have spatial resolutions of a few meters and can interrogate
Innovative Degradation Analysis and Material Development for AEM Systems – IDEAS
The project aims to significantly enhance Anion Exchange Membrane Electrolysis (AEMEL) technology, aligning with the EU's strategic objectives to establish a robust hydrogen-based energy infrastructure. This infrastructure is crucial for reducing carbon emissions and achieving energy independence. B
Electrically-Excited Chiral Plasmonic NanoCavities – ChiC
Chiral structures, whose initial and mirror structural images cannot be superimposed, interact differently with left-handed and right-handed circularly polarized light. Thus a structure of a certain “handedness” preferentially scatters or absorbs circularly polarized light of the same handedness, le
Phosphate capture enhancement in peritoneal dialysis process using designed recyclable iron oxide nanostructures – PHODIA
In patients suffering of chronic kidney disease (CKD), phosphates accumulation in blood is very dangerous and dialysis is the only way to remove them from blood, for those waiting for transplantation. Phosphate imbalance leads to a high cardiovascular mortality and to bone disorder in dialysis patie
