Catalyzing action towards sustainability of deltaic systems with an integrated modeling framework for risk assessment – DELTAS
Deltas are economic and environmental hotspots, food baskets for many nations, and home to a large portion of the world population. They sustain rich, biodiverse ecosystems and related services. Most deltas are also international and regional transportation hubs that support intense economic activit
Cationic Covalent Organic Frameworks as Anion Exchange Membranes for Electrochemical Energy Applications – COFFEE
The COFFEE project is a fundamental research project that seeks to combine research expertise from different European research institutes and universities, across multiple areas of materials chemistry to develop innovative anion exchange membrane (AEM) solutions for electrochemical energy conversion
Cellular Solid State NMR Spectroscopy of membrane proteins from Corynebacteriales – CoryneNMR
Corynebacteriales is a suprageneric actinomycetes group that includes corynebacteria, mycobacteria, nocardia, rhodococci. These Gram+ bacteria are important in several ways: pathogenic mycobacterial species, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis and M. leprae, are known to cause severe infectious dis
CentrifugAl iNstabilities and Turbulence in plAsmas: from LaboratOry plasmas to JUPiter's magnetospherE – CANTALOUPE
The rotation of magnetized plasmas, ubiquitous in the universe and technological applications, is known to lead to centrifugal instabilities and ultimately to an intense cross-field turbulent transport. In this proposal, we will address open issues raised by recent observations of centrifugally unst
Ceramic Optical Fiber for Laser Applications – FOCAL
Fiber lasers are expected to occupy 40% of the laser market within a few years against 10% nowadays. As a matter of fact, they enable i) higher compactness compared to classic bulk lasers, ii) beam transportation and iii) easier use through very good heat dissipation and vibration immunity. Even th
Characterization of DIgestate and evaluation of their agronomic VAlorisation – DIVA
To be used as fertilizer or soil improver, digestate must have specific criteria and composition of dry and organic matter, minerals, nutrients etc ... and be free of unwanted compounds (pathogenic microorganisms, phytotoxic compounds, inert, etc.). They must also be stable over time. The great var
Charge transfer control in small molecular architectures – CHACRA
Charge transfer processes are essential in various fields of technology, chemistry, and biology, playing a crucial role in vital functions and technological innovations. In biology, these processes are fundamental for photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Understanding the mechanisms of converti
Chemistry of Renewable Carbon for Bio-Fertilization & Plant Nutrition – C2R-BioNut
Global population growth is rapid: 7 billion people in 2012, it is expected 9.5 billion in 2050 according to the medium scenario of the UN. This is a major challenge for agriculture as filling and secure the growing food needs in quantity and quality. One approach favors the intensification of agric
Chloride Deregulation in Epileptic Focal Cortical Dysplasia – DYSCLO
Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) are epileptogenic malformations of cortical development leading to drug resistant epilepsy in children. Surgical treatment is the gold standard to treat these patients and offers the unprecedented opportunity to better understand the mechanisms of epilepsy exvivo. I ha
Clathrates hydrates with H-bond defects for hydrogen storage – HyDfect
The natural existence of large quantities of hydrocarbon hydrates in deep oceans and permafrost is probably at the origin of numerous applications in the broad areas of energy and environmental sciences. At a fundamental level, the peculiar nanostructuration of clathrate hydrates confers on these ma
