Deciphering the cell heterogeneity and the spatial distribution of pathogens in food matrices in interaction with microbial communities
For microbial risk management, current regulatory affairs provide food safety recommendations and rules essentially based on a threshold, which does not take into account the heterogeneity of the pathogen population within the complex environment of food matrices. Phenotypic heterogeneity at single-cell level is an intrinsic feature of foodborne pathogens to be considered for controlling food safety and develop relevant quantitative microbial risk assessment.
“CIRCULATING DEAD BODIES”. CONSIDERING POSTSOCIALIST FUNERARY RITUALS AND ECONOMY IN CONTEXTS OF MOBILITY.
The mobile dead<br />In Russia, the treatment of the bodies of deceased Central Asian migrants is the subject of community mobilisation. REFPoM has analysed the methods used and the issues at stake. <br />An interdisciplinary project<br />The analysis involved ethnographic and statistical methods.<br />The project involved the LESC (Univ. Paris Nanterre/CNRS) and then the LADEC (Univ. Lumière Lyon 2) began in 04-2018 and ended in 02-2023. It was fully funded by the ANR to the tune of €206,000.
Intensive religiosities, rigorisms and radicalities
Intensive religion, rigorism and radicalities<br />The aim of this research project is to study religious rigorism and radicalization, in an interdisciplinary approach. The research skills of the team are pluri-disciplinary (sociology, visual anthropology, political sciences, psychology, Islamic studies and Arabic language)
Family and inequality
Over the past 50 years, industrialized countries have experienced profound economic and demographic changes. These changes concern the distribution of income between individuals and the family structure in which these individuals live (lower nuptiality and birth rates, delays in cohabitation, increase in the number of divorces and single parenthood).
Cavitation and Confinement
Cavitation, i.e. the formation of a vapor bubble in a stretched liquid, is of fundamental interest and plays a central role in many fields. The consensus is that its occurrence is described by the Classical Nucleation Theory. <br />Building on the experimental and theoretical expertise of the four laboratories involved, the CavConf project aims to precisely test the validity of this consensus, both in bulk liquids, and in confined liquids for which the fluid-wall interaction comes into play
Single-cell study of the emergence of antibiotic resistance and bacterial genome diversification
Most studies describing how bacteria acquire resistance or persist during antibiotic treatment (AB) are based on experiments on populations of cells. These measurements provide averages at the population level, but do not provide the distribution of responses at the single-cell level, nor do they allow the temporal evolution of individuals within the population to be followed. Yet a number of observations show that cells in a given population can exhibit highly variable responses to AB stress.

Integrated system of bioremediation – biorefinering using halophyte species
The selected halophytes species cultivation on salt affected soils aimed on developing new value chains from obtained biomass. The work will be conducted on the monitoring the soil purification degree, the biomass and seeds yield, and their chemical composition. Possibilities of extracting active biomolecules and micronutrients from obtained biomass. A high knowledge transfer potential as alternative economic solution on bringing back into use for agricultural the farmland damaged by saltwater.
