A motor tool for language learning – MotorLanguageLearning
The common belief of a rigid brain structure in adult life had to be reconsidered during the last decade. Research has established that brain structures active during training expand while learning and return to baseline afterwards. The transient structural increase is thought to reflect “work in progress” within areas involved in learning. My main hypothesis is that other functions, as long as relying on the activity of the same brain territories, can take advantage of this “work in progress”.
Thinking without Words: Abstract Combinatorial Thinking in Infants and Children – TACTIC
The human adult mind is characterized by the cognitive capacity to combine information in a productive way, which sustains language, reasoning, learning and innovation. Little is known about the devel
Reading Aids to leverage Document Accessibility for Children with Dyslexia – ALECTOR

Cognitive Sciences: Humanities, Literature, Culture, and Embodiment – Cog-HuLiCE
Throughout history, philosophers have valued literature for its cognitive, emotional, and ethical effects: literary fiction has the potential to help understanding complex situations, to provoke ethic
Perception changes with the evolution of action representations – PERCERA
The project raises the general issue of the interrelations between perception, action, and cognition, which are viewed as a source of change. We hypothesize that the way people perceive and represent their environment depends on their own action repertoire and action abilities. Consequently, changes in the action repertoire and action abilities will entail modifications in the perception and representation of the environment.

Development and Optimization of Production process of Extremely Oxygen Sensitive bacteria for their industrial exploitation – DOPEOS
Many bacteria on earth are obligate anaerobes that do not grow because of their extreme sensitivity to oxygen (EOS) and of specific requirement for culture. Despite their crucial roles and their stron
