mechanisms of abrasion WEar of ELastomers – WEEL
The WEEL project aims at bringing new insights in the fundamental understanding of the abrasion wear mechanisms of reinforced elastomers that will set the basis for future improvements in the predicti
liThium and cRitical metals in hArd rocks: iNSights From geoenvironmentAl model and socIo-economics tRends – TRANSFAIR
Rare metals (e.g. Li, Ta, Sn) are critical components for the renewable energy technologies. In Europe, a significant part of the resources issues from rare-metal granites and pegmatites (RMPG), espec
iota Carbonic Anhydrase: A key response to CO2 in diatoms – OCEANIA
We recently discovered a protein from the model marine diatom, Thalassiosira pseudonana, that belongs to a new subclass of carbonic anhydrase, iota-CA. We showed that this protein is involved in CO2-c
in vitro reconstitution of the minimal flippase-operated phospholipid transport machinery – FLIPPER
The asymmetric distribution of lipids between the two leaflets of cell membranes is a fundamental feature of eukaryotic cells. For instance, while phosphatidylcholine and sphingomyelin are restricted
high gas barrier polymer-based nanocomposite design by combining experimental, modelling and machine learning approaches – BANCODEMM
BANCODEMM project aims to explore new routes in the quest of robust guidelines to design polymer-based nanocomposites displaying enhanced barrier properties from combined experimental, theoretical and
genotype/phenotype correlations to alloW rupturE risk stratification of intraCranial Aneurysm – WECAN
Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) affect 3% of the population and IA rupture is a devastating event (40% mortality). The ICAN biobank includes 3400 IA patients with clinical, imaging and DNA. WECAN relies
gamma-Peptide Foldamers for Bifunctional Iminium/Enamine and NHC/Iminium Organocatalysis – ATzC_NHC
Enzymes are proteins able to effectively catalyze highly complex biochemical reactions in mild reaction conditions but are limited to the arsenal of reactions that have emerged during natural evolutio
franco-german constellation research Max Scheler digital – KONSCHEL
The current popularity of Scheler's philosophy is supported by a re-evaluation of his fundamental contributions to the theory of intersubjectivity, the philosophy of feelings and the theory of values.
fault instabilities monitored by innovative optical instruments – FIMOPTIC
The objective of the project is to improve the detection and mechanical characterization of the sources of the weak strain signals caused by transient instability of fault zones, which are someti
evaluation of critical thinking mediation programs – OPTIMIST
In the digital and infodemic age, the battle against ready-made beliefs, manipulation, cognitive biases, intellectual slowness, etc., is a crucial issue for our society. This challenge is not only int
