Behaviours and spatial patterns related to the buruli Ulcer disease – COPTER-UB
Buruli ulcer is one of the 17 neglected tropical infectious diseases in the world. It is caused by the bacteria M. ulcerans and its symptoms are necrotizing cutaneous lesions.Buruli ulcer affects popu
Oviduct organoids to study the embryo-maternal dialog and develop strategies to alleviate climate change impact on cattle breeding – ORGALOG
To advance the understanding of the early embryo-maternal dialog is a major task in cattle breeding since up to 40% of embryo mortality occur during the first 7 days of pregnancy. This represents a si
Ecogenomics of small Phytoplankton & large Virus Interactions in response to changing salinity and phosphate concentrations – ELVIRA
Despite their major ecological role at the base of the food chain in oceanic ecosystems, the variation in phytoplankton-virus interactions as a function of abiotic factors is under studied. Indeed, ef
Spectroscopic LCOCT for cancer diagnosis improvement in dermatology – Spec-LCOCT
Line-field Confocal Optical Coherence Tomography (LC-OCT) is an imaging technique invented by A. Dubois (project coordinator) and developed by DAMAE Medical for non-invasive in situ skin cancer diagno
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.
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
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
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
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
