SOuth west FOGs 3D experiment for processes study – SOFOG3D
Fog strongly perturbs the aviation, marine and land transportation, leading to human losses and high financial costs. Accurate forecastings of fogs are thus required to reduce their impacts on human a
Large scale folding by epithelial migration
Characterizing how epithelial tissues invaginate.
uORF-mediated post-transcriptional control of stem cell niche activity in plants
Target of Rapamycin (TOR) functions as a central hub to link a wide range of external stimuli to protein production. In plants, protein production is limited by upstream open reading frames (uORFs) located within the 5’UTRs of about 30% of eukaryotic mRNAs. The mechanism of uORF-mediated suppression of translation and reinitiation factors that mediate uORF inhibitory potential are not yet clear.
COMETary dust ORigin
The formation and evolution mechanisms of cometary dust are studied by the analyses of ultra-carbonaceous Antarctic Micrometeorites (UCAMMs) extracted from the CONCORDIA micrometeorite collection. Experimental simulations of the formation of cometary organic matter were performed by high energy ion irradiation of cometary ice analogues in the laboratory.
Morpho-functional Swarm Robotics
In this project, we are interested in swarm robotics, where a large number of robots with limited computation and communication power are considered. Our goal is to propose new design methods, with a particular focus on collective decision making using both morphological and logical computation.
High performance MS-based proteomics by reducing stable isotopes complexity in vivo
Development of a completely new approach for the study of proteome dynamics by mass spectrometry: use of the many advantages of in vivo reduction of the isotopic complexity of peptides and proteins for qualitative and quantitative analyses.

Lab-on-disc for in situ monitoring of surface water quality by algae biosensors and physicochemical sensors
The monitoring of aquatic ecosystems is a major environmental concern applying to large families of pollutants generated by human activities. The measurement of contaminants in surface waters is typic
Chiral Iodanes for Asymmetric Carbon–Carbon Bond Construction
Development of new chiral organoiodine I(III) compounds bearing transferable carbon-based ligands and evaluation of their capability to induce asymmetry in Carbon–Carbon bond-forming reactions. Understanding and rationalization of theoretical aspects of the structures (topological analyses) and chemical reactivity (access to hypervalency, ligand exchange and coupling processes) of these iodoarenes/iodanes.
CROss-modal registration in COrrelative Microscopies for VALvulopathy physiological characterisation
Correlative microscopy makes it possible to combine different scales of observations and different types of content, functional and morphological. To decipher the fundamental mechanisms of dysfunction of the heart valve, these approaches are particularly interesting because of the heterogeneity of cell remodeling involved in the development of the disease.<br />The objective of this project is to develop adapted methods of image data fusion to study the biological mechanisms involved.
