Stress Enhanced Local Electrical Characteristic Testing, set up development – SELECT
Strain engineering has evolved significantly in the last decade, enhancing device performance by modulating strain to optimise specific functional properties. Although primarily used in semiconductor manufacturing, this approach shows potential across a variety of materials, such as polymers, metals
Enabling Computer Architecture for Tomorrow – eCAT
Computing architectures of today face several limitations such as high power consumption, insufficient computing speed, reduced reliability, high cost, and scaling issues. Meanwhile, the demand for performance and energy efficiency continues to increase. To overcome the limitations of the computer a
Exploring the Roles of Chloroplast GNATs: Acetylation as a Regulatory Mechanism in Photosynthesis and Senescence – AcetylPlast
The AcetylPlast project, based on a long-standing French-German collaboration, aims to unravel the complex roles of N-terminal acetylation (NTA) and lysine acetylation (KAT) in plastids. A key discovery by our consortium is the identification of a unique family of plastid GNAT (Gcn5-related N-acetyl
Gradability across Science and Epistemic Practices – GRASP
Contrary to various terms in ordinary language, like tall or nice, scientific success predicates and notions do not seem to be graded: “more proven” or “more true” sound almost like contradictory expressions. This project plans to explore how, despite these appearances, gradability is central across
Mid infrared phase modulators for free space optical communications – doreMIPHASOL
Free-space optical communications in the mid-infrared transparency windows (4 - 5 µm and 8- 14 µm wavelength regions) is emerging as a viable solution for high bitrate data transmission. Driven by the high performances of quantum cascade lasers, unipolar quantum optoelectronics appears as the techno
Biobased & biodegradable marine nets: Environmental and health impacts due to leachates and micro- & nano-plastics – NET_IMPACT
Plastics are omnipresent in our daily life, our environment and food. To reduce their global impact, one potential solution would be to use biobased, biodegradable and recyclable materials. However, these new plastics are still emerging on the market, and the information about their chemical composi
Bearded fireWORM invaSiOn: UnderwaTer monitoring, biodiversity and social impacts, PotentiaL indUstrial application and mitigation Strategies – WORMSOUT PLUS
The WORMSOUT PLUS project was born from the need to implement the current state of knowledge about the polychaete Hermodice carunculata, known as the fireworm, which causes damage to biodiversity and economic losses to fisheries and tourism in some areas of the Mediterranean. The fireworm is conside
Using the volatilome and metabolome to identify biomarkers for the diagnosis, prognosis and understanding of Legionnaires' disease – METABOLEGIO
Legionnaires’ disease (LD) is an increasing cause of community-acquired pneumonia associated with digestive symptoms and high mortality rates, particularly in intensive care patients. This project aims to address two key issues: the poorly understood pathogenesis of LD severity and the lack of progn
Quasiperiodic architectured bio-materials for bone substitutes – QBone
Biological tissues have mechanical and functional properties that are extremely difficult to replicate. They are intrinsically multi-scaled, hierarchical, architectured and heterogeneous materials, and their exceptional features are the result of a smart arrangement of the basic constituents of the
Role of Inflammasome in immunoSuppressive cells induction upon sEpsis: the project RISE – RISES
Sepsis, the leading cause of death in intensive care units, represents a major public health challenge and has been recognized as a global public health priority by the WHO. Its pathophysiology involves intricate mechanisms associating an exacerbated systemic inflammatory response and profound immun
