AErosol RadiatiOn and CLOuds in Southern Africa
The representation of cloud-aerosol-radiation interaction remain one of the largest uncertainties in climate change, limiting our ability to accurately reconstruct and predict future climate change. In the South East Atlantic, high atmospheric aerosol loadings and semi-permanent stratocumulus cloud are co-located. The area isa unique natural laboratory for studying the full range of aerosol-radiation and aerosol-cloud interactions and their perturbations of the Earth’s radiation budget.
ALIVE: An innovative medical device to improve the diagnostic of liver nodules and liver diseases analysing endogenous fluorescence
Primary liver cancer, including hepatocellular carcinoma (CHC) is the sixth most common cancer in the world with rising incidence. Early and accurate diagnosis is essential for proper management of ca
AN INTEGRATED ELECTRICAL PLASMON NANOSOURCE
Plasmonics, or the use of surface plasmon polaritons instead of electrons or photons to convey information in miniaturized circuits, combines the advantages of photonics—its high speed and large bandw
ANCESSTRAM: Inferring the characteristics of ANCEStral STRAMenopiles to understand their evolution and ecological success
Les stramenopiles constituent une part importante de la biodiversité dans la plupart des écosystèmes aquatiques et terrestres. Le projet ANCESSTRAM veut comprendre comment cette diversité a évoluée et pourquoi ces organismes ont eu un tel succès écologique
ANGIOGENESIS, A NEW THERAPEUTIC TARGET IN OSTEOARTHRITIS (OA) AND ASSOCIATED PAIN
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease which affects 630M people worldwide for which there is currently no cure. Exploration of the mechanisms involved in OA has highlighted the contribution of angiogenesis to the structural damage and progression of OA. This project proposes to target osteochondral angiogenesis with vascular disrupting agents to treat OA. We anticipate that VDA may also be beneficial to relieve osteoarthritic pain.

Acousto-optic Light Patterning for the Imaging of Neurons and Stimulation
In the last decade, cellular and systems neuroscience have experienced a thorough paradigmatic shift following the optogenetic revolution. Optogenetics provides the capability to record and modify the
Acrostyle in aphid stylets: a key for crop protection
Aphids are sap-feeding insects with piercing-sucking mouthparts. They are serious pests in agriculture and provoke significant losses, not only reducing plant growth by deprivation of nutrients, but a
