Social interpretations of object-signs of Alpine jades in Neolithic Europe. – JADE 2
The Jade 2 project, which follows the ANR Jade (2007-2010, dir. by P. Pétrequin) is an anthropological approach of the find contexts of axes and rings-discs of Alpine jades circulating in Europe during the fifth and fourth millennia BC. It is to understand the variations of the interpretations of these remarkable object-signs from production centers (Western Alps and Piedmont) to the outskirts of Europe of Jade (between the Atlantic and the Black Sea).

Towards a photo-herbicide: synthesis and studies of water-soluble fluorescent tagged porphyrins, from solution to plant cells – PorphyPlant
The aim of this project is to develop soft agronomic practices taking environmental context and efficient agriculture into account.<br />Thus we aim at using exogenous porphyrins as biodegradable herbicides.<br /><br />
Dynamics of an arc volcano with extruding lava domes, Merapi (Indonesia): from the magma reservoir to eruptive processes – DOMERAPI
On andesitic volcanoes, magma reaches the surface as domes that destabilize gravitationally or explosively to form pyroclastic flows that travel kilometers along the flanks of the volcano or form vertical explosive columns. These different eruptive styles generate drastically different human and environmental impact.<br />DOMERAPI proposes a multi-disciplinary approach that involves and integrates geological and geophysical methods in order to improve our understanding of these magmatic processes.
Plates with blind holes for harnessing of flexural waves – PLATON
The PLATON project aims at exploring fundamental as well as applied aspects of flexural wave interaction with periodic or random arrays of strongly coupled subwavelength resonators. Of particular interest is the possibility to investigate new wave phenomena by designing artificial meta-structures for elastic waves similar to the ones investigated in optics or electromagnetic waves, such as photonic crystals and metamaterials.
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.
"Differences of potential" DifdePo History, poetics and aesthetics of Oulipo – DifdePo
The DifdePo project (2013-2015) aims at questioning the «differences of potential« of the group Oulipo (Workshop for potential literature), founded by Raymond Queneau and François Le Lionnais in 1960 and still in activity, through three main angles: history, poetics and aesthetics.
