Exploring the Chemistry and Spectroscopy of Cosmic Anions – Anion Cos Chem
The molecular diversity of the cold interstellar medium (ISM) has been recently enriched with the detection of anions. Despite growing interest, the physical & chemical processes that govern their abundance remain poorly known. Potential anions escape radio-detection because of the absence of dipole moment. To address these issues we combine astronomical observations, theory, modeling and experiments.

Higgs boson couplings to top and bottom quarks – Hbb+ttH@LHC
This project aims at observing two specific production channels of the Higgs boson with the data delivered by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN to the ATLAS experiment, during the Run 1 (2015-2018) phase of the project.<br />This should allow to improve the knowledge on the couplings of the Higgs boson to the top and bottom quarks, therefore shedding light on the nature of the electroweak symmetry breaking.
FOmation and FAte of Mass-Independent Fractionation Signatures – FOFAMIFS
In the oldest epochs of the Earth history, the atmosphere contained a strange sulfur isotope anomaly that suddenly disappeared. This disappearance is interpreted as the consequence of a late oxygenation of the Earth's atmosphere. But what are the isotopes really telling us about the chemical state of the old Earth's atmosphere? What processes are behind the stage?
Anti-ion – ANTION
We work on the production, for the first time, of positively charged antihydrogen ion under controlled circumstances in the laboratory. We will measure the cross section of the antiproton/positronium and antihydrogen/positronium reactions and their matter counterparts, which lead to the anti-ion production. The antihydrogen ions will be used in the GBAR experiment at CERN, which aims at the direct measurement of the gravitational acceleration of neutral antimatter.

Preclinical validation of hepatocytes derived from pluripotent stem cells for liver biotherapy – StemHepTher
The rationale of our liver-directed regenerative medicine approach is based on clinical trials showing that transplantation of allogeneic human hepatocytes is a safe therapeutic alternative to Liver transplantation. Engrafted hepatocytes improved the clinical outcome of several patients with inborn liver diseases. However, this cell therapy is limited by the shortage of donor liver organs. In addition, isolated hepatocytes cannot be expanded in culture with current methods.

Study and inhibition of endothelial cell activation in physiological and pathological retina vascularization – NORMATHER
Retinal vascular diseases (RVD) have been identified as a major cause for blindness worldwide. The first stage of these disorders is characterized by an ischemic event which causes the development of
