Aeolian transport of cohesive particles: From sand to snow – EOLE
The transport of solid particles by the shearing of a turbulent air flow over a bed of particles occurs in many geophysical processes, such as sand transport by wind, snow transport or dust emission.
Untangling the selectivity of alpha-synuclein pathology transmission in synucleinopathies: role of intra- and extracellular environments – SYNSELECT
Synucleinopathies encompass several neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease, Dementia with Lewy bodies and multiple system atrophy (MSA). These diseases are characterized by the accumul
Cruising the marine halomethane cycle: Microbiology, biochemistry and geochemistry of reference bacteria, new microbial players and underlying processes – MAHABIO
Volatile organohalides are toxic to living organisms. Furthermore, they contribute to the destruction of stratospheric ozone. Seas and oceans are major sources of these compounds, which prominently in
Plant Hydraulic Functioning in face of Climate Change – PHYDRAUCC
Atmospheric CO2 concentration ([CO2]) has increased by 45% since 1750, the highest in the past 800 000 years. [CO2] will continue to increase as precipitation and soil moisture are modified alongside.
Role of CRKs and ROS signaling in the rejection of Arabidopsis self pollen – ROCnROS
Self-incompatibility (SI) is a plant genetic mechanism that enables the female tissues to discriminate mating partners (pollen). SI systems ensure outcrossing by arresting self pollen while promoting
MECHANICAL POLARITY of the Cell Cortex – CoMePol
Mammalian cells can adopt a large variety of shapes often associated with a specific internal organisation called cell polarity, which is instrumental for cell migration and tissue morphogenesis. The
First holistic functional exploration of a marine photosymbiosis using the new model organism Symsagittifera roscoffensis – Animalga
The main drawback of the coral-algae model is that the microalgae Symbiodinium are refractory to molecular biology techniques, which seriously restrict any functional exploration. In this proposal, th
UBTD1: an ubiquitin scaffold protein at the cross roads of cell mechanics and cell metabolism – Mechano-Ub
Mechanical signals from the environment promote cell proliferation. Cell proliferation requires the accumulation of intracellular biomass in order to produce daughter cells. Yet, whether and how cell
Detecting transient strain along the Haiyuan fault, China – X-STRAIN
Continuous improvement of seismological and geodetic instruments is the key for unraveling the physics of earthquakes. Since the 2000’s, the maturity of dense geodetic networks and satellite observati
