New mechanisms involved in the exceptional radioresistance of the bacterium Deinococcus radiodurans – Radioresistance
The research project aims to better understand the mechanisms involved in radiation resistance using as a model the bacterium Deinococcus radiodurans, one of the most radioresistant organisms known. In particular the project will be centered on the regulation network of the radiation response and on the genome dynamics during the cell cycle.

Multifunctional molecular probes for fluorescence imaging of cell membranes – Cellmemprobes
Rapidly developing optical imaging techniques require new advanced molecular tools – fluorescent probes. The present project will develop new probes having several functions: specific membrane staining, specific recognition of the membrane proteins (receptors) and color-response to lipid domains in plasma membranes, especially in the nanoscopic surrounding of the receptor.
Degradation of Amines in Liquid Matrix and Analysis : Toxicity or Innocuousness for ENvironment? – DALMATIEN
CO2 capture technologies enable to limit greenhouse gas emissions. Nevertheless the most mature technology is based on CO2 absorption by organic compounds which may be slowly degraded to form new molecules. It’s necessary to make sure that no molecules detrimental to environment are emitted to atmosphere in treated flue gases. This is the aim of DALMATIEN (Degradation of Amines in Liquid Matrix and Analysis: Toxicity or Innocuousness for ENvironment?).
Novel Iron-based catalysts for fuel cells – CAFERINNO
Hydrogen produced from water and renewable energy is an ideal fuel. When it recombines with air in a fuel cell, electricity is created. Enough to power all vehicles of the future. However, the platinum catalyst required to reach high power densities will have to be replaced by cheaper catalysts.
Archaeological Researches on Metal and Pottery Assemblages from the Oxus Basin to the Indus Valley during Protohistory. – ROXIANA
ROXIANA: the first attempt for analyzing ancient potteries and metal at such a scale in protohistoric Middle Asia.<br />ROXIANA was designed for a better understanding of the development of ancient technologies in Middle Asia, in a time of early urbanization North and South of Hindu Kush (5th-1st millennia BCE).<br />Pottery and metal belong to the «pyrotechnologies« (technologies of fire),a part of craftmanships that were a crucial development on the way of emergence of urban societies in the Old World.<br />
Characterisation of FIsh NEural STem cells in the midbrain – FINEST
There are fundamental questions in the field of neural stem cells (NSCs) biology: how do NSCs keep their multipotent and semi-quiescent state? How NSCs are recruited in healthy or pathological conditions? To tackle these questions, we propose to use fish models, whose brains have the peculiarity to grow continuously during whole adult life.

The effects of climate change on parasites: toward an integrative and predictive approach – INCLIMPAR
This study aims at predicting the effects of climate change on the spatial distribution of parasites while integrating both climatic and non-climatic variables in distribution models. This will be the first attempt to develop such an integrative project.
