Cadmium and Diabetes – CADMIDIA
The project Cadmidia aims at understanding the relationship between low level exposure to the widespread contaminant, cadmium, and dysfunction of pancreatic beta cells, which is a strongly contributin
Contribution to the Human exposure assessment related to substitutes and derivatives of Bisphenol A and to the associated hazard characterisation. – NEWPLAST
The present project focuses on substitutes and derivatives of bisphenol A (BPA) which are used in the manufacture of polycarbonate and epoxy resins, including food contact materials. Indeed, a growing
Fate and effects of selected persistent organic pollutants (PCBs, PBDEs) on fish reproduction, development and survival of the progeny. – Fish'N'POPs
Aquatic ecosystems in general and littoral areas in particular are submitted to ever growing anthropic pressures. Coastal ecosystems have a high economical and ecological value as they host a large nu
Responses of pelagic microorganisms to contamination by polluted sediments – RISCO
It is now well recognized that the risk of environmental contamination by chemical pollutants is particularly high in coastal environments where past, present and forecasted demographic increases, are
Lakes of the Altiplano (Bolivia): in situ exploration of the (a)biotic Processes controlling the Aquatic biogeoCHemistry of Mercury At the Molecular and Isotopic scAle. – LA PACHAMAMA
To study the environmental chemistry and advanced transformations of contaminants, combined molecular and multi isotopic signatures should provide new information to better constrain their biogeochemi
Oxidant generating capacity as a metric to allow grouping of nanomaterials and prediction of human health effects – nanOxiMet
Toxicological studies in recent years have shown that the prediction of pathogenic properties of nanomaterials is not per se possible and that significant knowledge on the nanomaterial itself and its
International Rural Gentrification – iRGENT
This project will deliver the first in-depth examination of the cross-national rural geographies of both the concept and phenomenon of gentrification, through an integrated comparative study of the t
Numerical Schemes using Lattice Basis Reduction – NS-LBR
In this project, we will develop, study, and distribute in open source software, new methods for the discretization of anisotropic Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) on two or three dimensional grids.
Regulatory small RNAs as effectors of transcription-translation coupling in bacteria: the Rho connection – SmallRhose
Small non-coding RNAs make up a large family of ubiquitous regulators active in all domains of life. In higher eukaryotes, microRNAs participate in processes related to development, aging and disease.
AluACA RNAs, a novel class of human box H/ACA noncoding RNAs – AluACA
Our group has a long-standing interest in understanding of the functional complexity of box C/D and H/ACA small nucleolar and Cajal body-specific RNPs (snoRNPs and scaRNPs). During studying a group of human C/D and H/ACA RNPs which are associated with WDR79, we discovered a new class of human H/ACA RNPs, called the AluACA RNPs. The AluACA RNAs are processed from intronic Alu repetitive sequences.
