Parity Non-Conservation in Molecular Systems – NCPCHEM
Chiral molecules can not be superimposed on their mirror image, but are thought to have identical physical and chemical properties. However, a group of researchers are now hunting for a tiny, but important energy difference between left- and right-handed molécules, arising from the weak force of Nature.
Performance and Behavior at the nanoscale of new efficient and environmentally Friendly nanolubricants – BeFriend
non-toxic when dispersed in lubricants, they present exceptional tribological properties (friction reducing and
Pesticide mix and the hepato-brain axis: role of xenobiotic nuclear receptors – HepatoBrain
Until now the majority of in vivo studies have examined episodes of acute intoxications when sudden neurological symptoms arise. Our research focuses on the mechanisms and the effects of exposure to low-dose pesticide cocktails during a life time, a matter of contemporary and active discussion.

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.

Phosphasalen oxidized complexes – PsalenOx
How may the presence of phosphorus in the backbone of the ligand influence the nature of oxidized complexes ? Phosphasalens can be viewed as phosphorous analogues of salens featuring two phenoxides and two iminophoshoranes which are highly electron-donating. A precise description of the electronic structure of the oxidized complexes is targeted, as well as the stabilization of oxo complexes, which are relatively rare in salen chemistry (except the chromium case).

Plan d'Action National sur l'Hydrogène et les piles à combustible (PAN-H)
Le plan d'action PAN-H vise à développer une filière industrielle de l'hydrogène et des piles à combustible compatible avec les contraintes de l'usage automobile sur le long terme. Il favorisera également le déploiement de ces technologies dans des marchés considérés comme moins exigeants à plus court terme (applications stationnaires de micro-cogénération, groupe de secours, production électrique décentralisée, transports collectifs, autres niches comme les applications portables …) qui permettront, en créant des filières industrielles ayant leur propre dynamique, de préparer le marché automobile. Le livrable industriel, visible et fédérateur, sera l’installation de 55 MW d’ici 2010, pour arriver à un minimum de 20 MW/an installés à partir de 2010. A cette date, il s’agira essentiellement d'applications stationnaires et autres applications de niches.
