Frontier Research in Radical Initiating Systems: PhotoRedox Catalysis as a new strategy for polymer synthesis – PHOTOREDOX
The PHOTOREDOX project presented here consists in developing new photoinitiators built on a new concept: the CATALYSIS PHOTOREDOX.<br /><br />By the mobilized skills and by its finalized shutter, the Photoredox project will contribute to the preservation of an activity and ambitious research in the sector of the chemistry of the processes under light irradiation . The French research (academic or industrial) occupies in this particular domain a recognized place at the international level).
Lewis acids: acidity scales and catalytic activity – ALEA
Lewis superacids : acidity scales and catalytic activity<br /><br />The ALEA deals with synthetic and physicochemical aspects of catalytic reactions with Lewis superacids, which have shown to present an exceptional activity in the electrophilic activation of organic reactions and in catalysis.<br />The ALEA project has also opened interesting new perspectives concerning Lewis acid supported catalysts; it allowed for industrial contracts and for academic collaborations.<br />
Innovative advanced control of large cryogenic systems to save energy and reduce carbone emission – CRYOGREEN
Large cryogenic systems extract high amount of heat at low temperature and require a lot of power at room temperature (e.g. CERN refrigerator: 144 KW at 4.5K needs 40 MW electrical power at 300K). Minimize energy consumption by improving the reliability of existing or future large refrigerators is a major issue

VOICE, ACOUSTICS AND THEATRICAL LISTENING IN FRANCE (SECOND HALF OF THE 20TH CENTURY)
Linguistic analysis, intercultural aspects of sapiential utterances and their transmission from East to West and from West to East – ALIENTO
Aliento participates in two major areas of research: paremiology and digital humanities. Its starting point is the Iberian Middle Ages (al-Andalus), where several sapiential traditions (the adab (9th century), from the East, rabbinic and latin literatures) coexist and mix.
Real-gas Effects on Fluid Injection: a Numerical and Experimental study. – REFINE
The present proposal concerns the propulsion with application to the automotive and aerospace science and technology. The need for higher efficiency and lower emission levels leads to increase pressure i.e. to reach supercritical properties of fluids. The objective of REFINE is to build a simple well-controlled test-bench able to study a fluid injection under sub-, trans- and super-critical conditions and to associate experimental and numerical diagnostics to deliver the finest information.
Next steps in Synthetic Biology: towards the generalization of genome transplantation methods – SYNBIOMOLL
SYNBIOMOLL aims at extending Synthetic Biology key technologies to Mollicutes species of interest. Because several bacterial genomes have already been cloned in yeast and the synthetic assembly of large DNA fragments is in current use, the major technological limitation is our ability to extend the genome transplantation technology to other microbial species. This project could therefore lead to a better comprehension of the biology of pathogenic bacteria and the development of new vaccines.
