Imposing Mechanical Perturbations on the Immune Synapse – IMPerIS
Several cell types communicate with each other through a signaling platform (called synapse) that allows passage of molecules and signals. In particular, B cells form an immune synapse with cells expo
Dielectrophoresis And reverse dielectro-Osmosis for Membraneless Sieving: Toward high-throughput multiscale particles tracking – DIADEM
By introducing a new paradigm for filtration, the DIADEM project aims at developing analytical devices for high throughput (> 1ml/min), “membraneless” sieving of colloidal suspensions having a wide r
Ontology-based decision support plateform, for evaluating the clinical severity of Covid-19 patients and orienting them towards the right medical care option – ORIENT-COVID
In Lebanon, the COVID19 pandemic was added in March 2020 to the already very complicated context of the country which follows the conjunction of several crises affecting the Lebanese state and its pop
Plasma Turbulence - Neutrals interaction in the edge of tokamaks – PLATUN
The strategy to manage the extreme heat fluxes to the wall of magnetic fusion reactors relies on the dissipation of the plasma’s energy through interaction with the neutral gas present in the edge of
AquatTyre (course of island waters) – AquaTyr
The international consortium AquaTyr will investigate reticulated water management in the antique city of Tyre, in Lebanon, an island that became a peninsula. It will focus on coping strategies for wa
Electronic properties of strained antimonene and graphene/antimonene heterostructures – SAGA
The research on two dimensional (2D) materials is experiencing, nowadays, an extraordinary rise. Two are the main objectives that drives this scientific field: the fabrication and characterization of
ultraSHOrt tunable deep-and vacuum-UV generation for TIME-resolved molecular dynamics – ShoTime
The ShoTime project aims at producing bright and reliable sources of tunable ultrashort Vacuum- and Deep-UV pulses (120-350 nm, sub-10 fs) at 166 kHz repetition rate, and at using them in combination
CHEmistry, Spectroscopy and Speciation of protactinium – CHESS
Protactinium, a radioelement with unknown chemistry, is a key element : first actinide for which the 5f orbitals can be involved in chemical bonding, it is also naturally ocurring in envrionment, in t
The evolution of biomineral prenucleation species: Real-time nuclear magnetic resonance in liquids and solids – RealTimeNMR
The classical nucleation theory was recently challenged by the observation of stable and soluble pre-nucleation species (PNS) prior to formation of many solid materials. This suggests non-classical cr
Superconductivity and topological phases in misfit dichalcogenides – Misfit
Superconductivity in transition metal dichalcogenides such as NbSe2 persists down to monolayer thickness. These 2D superconductors have a strong Ising spin-orbit coupling, which can lead to unconventi
