Fast Univeral Tunable Optical Filter – FASTUNE
Design and realization of the tunable filter: - Choice of materials (glass, mirrors, glues, connectors) - Definition of the reflection rate of the mirrors, realization of a set of substrates covered with the 99% dielectric mirrors - Study and optimization of the shape of adhesive joints - Realiz
Far-from-Equilibrium NaNothermodynamics with Engineered Colored baths – FENNEC
Fascinating phenomena emerge from the appearance of far-from-equilibrium thermodynamic states, from active matter to protein folding dynamics, including non-trivial heat flows. Nevertheless, the complexity of these phenomena makes their fundamental understanding difficult. In this context, the FENNE
Fair Multimodal Learning – FAMOUS
The aim of this project is to explore the first avenues of research into the contribution of multimodality in datasets to meet the requirements of fair learning. Fairness refers here to the biases (in the data and/or induced), while being interested in the interpretability of the models to help thei
Extraction of Radioelement using Innovative Functionalized Membranes – MEMFIS
The treatment of effluent and wastewater has become a major environmental concern of our society. Whatever the application area, regulations on wastewater discharges are becoming more severe and require efficient reprocessing technologies. This must take into account the recycling or conditioning of
Extraction and Transfer of Knowledge in Reinforcement Learning – ExTra-Learn
In the near future, intelligent and autonomous systems will become more ubiquitous and pervasive in applications such as autonomous robotics, design of intelligent personal assistants, and management of energy smart grids. Although very diverse, these applications call for the development of deci
Exploring the potential of Optimal Transport for Monte Carlo methods in Medical physics – ExOTics
This project focuses on the integration of the optimal transport (OT) method into Monte Carlo (MC) simulations in medical physics, with a particular emphasis on dosimetry, which calculates the dose distribution in the patient. MC simulations are commonly used in this field, but they are notoriously
Exploring the P-glycoprotein-mediated efflux transport at the blood-brain barrier as a biomarker of drug-resistance in focal epilepsy – EPIFLUX
Epilepsy is one of the most common serious neurological disorders, affecting approximately 65 million people worldwide. Seizures can be controlled by antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) in most cases. However, ~30% of patients have drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) and experience debilitating refractory seizures
Exploration of the dynamics of Blood-Brain barrier regulation for optimized management of chemical exposure to OrganoPhosphates – B-BOP
Organophosphorus compounds (OP), initially developed as plant protection products, are used for military purposes as nerve agents (NA) (Sarin, VX or Novitchok). They pose a threat to military and civilian populations. They cause irreversible inhibition of peripheral and central cholinesterases, bloc
Experiments and simulations for the study of submerged aquatic canopies consisting of long flexible blades (ESCaFlex) – ESCaFlex
Aquatic ecosystems constitute a topic of high relevance due to their abundance and their various roles on different scales, ranging from the quality of drinking water taken from the local river to the large-scale impact on climate change. The fluid mechanical interaction between the flow and the fle
Experimental and theoretical study of energy and charge transfer in nanotube/chromophore compounds. – TRANCHANT
In the framework of the energy challenge and renewable energy sources, an important research activity is devoted to new low-cost photovoltaic materials. Carbon nanotubes grafted with photo-active dyes could lead to an important breakthrough in this domain due to their exceptional transport propertie
