‘WAR MADE SHANGHAI’: TOWARD A SPATIAL HISTORY OF 19th-20th CENTURY SHANGHAI (1842-1952) – WARS
This project proposes to explore the history of war and civilian violence in Shanghai over a long century (1842-1952) from the perspective of the spatial history and seeks to establish the determinants and modes of transformation the city that resulted from warfare. It sits at the interface of history and geography. The methodological approach to be adopted fits in the realm of «digital humanities«, in particular digital history.
Biolubrication from phospholipid membranes – Biolub
of articulating cartilage, which leads to exceptionally low friction coefficients, is still poorly [...] is a serious candidate for explaining these exceptional properties. Friction coefficients close to the
ASP technologIes for Querying large scale multisource heterogeneous web information – ASPIQ
The overall objective of the project is to propose new solutions for querying large scale multisource heterogeneous information, with two applications to web linked data and underwater archaeological surveys, where in both applications we face large data sets expressed in RDFs and OWL.

Ion transport through ion bio-channels confined inside nanopores: a combined theoretical and experimental project – TRANSION
Our project aims at confining Ion Bio-Channel (IBC) in solid-state nanopores and at investigating their functional properties .Our goal is thus to build bio-inspired nanoporous systems exhibiting exceptional ion transport properties.<br />In order to solve some of the scientific challenges associated with this project, a trans-disciplinary, i.e. biophysics/physics/chemistry, and trans-methodology (i.e. experiment/molecular simulation/analytical model) research consortium is proposed.
MorphoDYNAmics of tidal inlets: 3D numerical MOdelling and impacts on pollutant circulation. – DYNAMO
Numérical modelling, relationships with adjacent shorelines and impacts of morphological changes on pollutants pathways.
BActerial production of Glycerol (di)Ether Lipids : Biogeochemical, (palaeo)environmental and evolutionary implications – BAGEL
This project aims to explain the physiological, environmental and evolutionary reasons for the presence of certain lipids (called glycerol ethers) in new bacteria isolated from a normal marine environment, while these lipids have been considered typical of microorganisms living in extreme environments (e.g., very hot).
Phenotypic plasticity and social life facilitate the evolution of new phenotypes in ants – ANTEVO
Ants have evolved an exceptional diversity of castes (winged queens, wingless queens, workers, soldiers, …) from an ancestrally homogeneous system. We study the developmental and evolutionary mechanisms involved, with special focus on developmental anomalies and social life.
