Understanding the mode of action of the symbiosis-specific NF-YA1 Transcription Factor in Medicago truncatula – NODCCAAT
Plants belonging to the legume family are able to interact symbiotically with nitrogen fixing bacteria named rhizobia, allowing these plants to grow in agricultural systems with low nitrogen inputs an
Understanding the mechanisms of deafness by using intersectional genetics and functional analysis in the mouse – DEAF
With the advent of new molecular genetic tools, particularly in the mouse, studies related to understanding the formation of the auditory system have significantly advanced. Because hearing loss greatly impairs quality of life and leads to a substantial economical cost, understanding the contribution of the different neuronal structures on the sound encoding process will foster the development of new algorithms for hearing aids, cochlear implants, and pharmacological-based therapies.
Understanding the mechanism of ultrafast all optical switching – UMAMI
The scientific goal of this project is to understand the mechanism underlying the recently discovered all optical magnetic switching phenomenon. The proposed approach presents a series of novelties, w
Understanding the PROtectiVe Inflammation in DiabEtes – PROVIDE
The overall objective of the proposed project is to reveal the physiologic role of inflammation dependent of IRF5 pathways in the adaptation to metabolic stress linked to T2D. Understanding the physiological and the pathological role of the immune system may allow designing personalized treatments promoting a beneficial immune status in patients with T2D.
Understanding planar polarization of centrioles in multiciliated epithelia – ORICEN
Arrays of cilia beating at the surface of multiciliated epithelia drive cerebrospinal fluid circulation in the brain, mucus clearance in the airway, and egg transportation along the oviduct. Impairmen
Understanding and Diagnosing End-to-end Communication Bottlenecks of the Internet – BottleNet
As our lives become more dependent on the Internet, it is easy to understand people’s frustration when poor Internet performance prevents them from accomplishing ever-more important online activities.
Understanding CO2 capture processes : a combination of reactive molecular simulation, thermodynamic modelling and experiments – SiModEx
Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technologies applied to fixed CO2 sources are currently considered to be one of the most promising methods to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. CCS is based on the sele
