Emergence de l’Homme Anatomiquement Moderne en Afrique Sub-Saharienne au cours du Middle Stone Age : apports chronologiques – Emergence
Geochronological methods have already played a major role in our understanding of the Middle Stone Age in Africa. Once believed to be in a late position when compared to the European Upper Paleolithic, it is now considered to have been broadly contemporaneous with the Middle Paleolithic and to have
Modélisation Spatio-Temporelle des Réseaux de Gènes Impliqués dans la Régulation de l'Absorption Racinaire d’Azote chez Arabidopsis thaliana – ModeIN
Nitrogen is the mineral nutrient required in the highest amount by plants and is most frequently limiting for growth and yield, leading to massive use of N fertilizer in agriculture. Only part of the applied fertilizers is actually taken up by plants in agro-systems, which results in pollution probl
SINGLE ELECTRON DEVICE INTEGRATION ON CMOS TECHNOLOGY – SEDIMOS
Since the creation of the integrated circuit, more than 4 decades ago, a tenfold increase in computing performance is achieved every 5 years. The most significant impact of this trend is the continuing decrease of cost-per-chip which has led to significant improvement in economic productivity and ov
Pharmaco-genetic and opto-genetic analysis of brain microcircuits controlling sleep and arousal. – NEUROGEN
Neurological disorders have an increasing economical and societal impact in developed countries. For example, recent research studies evaluated that more than 200 million individuals are affected by sleep disturbances. A better understanding of brain microcircuits function and the development of inn
Development of multiple kinase target (MuKiT) inhibitors for treating tuberculosis – MuKit
Tuberculosis is one of the oldest diseases known to man and it remains today as a major health problem, with one-third of the world’s population being infected by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Global tuberculosis control is facing major challenges, primarily due to the emergence of multi-drug resistan
Graphs for Telecommunications – GraTel
Andre Raspaud launched in 2005 a fruitful cooperation with the Department of Applied Mathematics of the Sun Yat-Sen University of Kaohsiung, Taiwan. This proposal takes its roots from this three years cooperation (including one PhD student in double doctoral degree scheme). The priority scienti'c th
Photodetection in the Infrared with heavy metal-free QUANTum dots – PIQUANT
Due to their unique and size-tuneable properties, quantum dots (QDs) have become established building blocks for diverse applications, in particular in display and biotechnologies. For the visible range alternative materials to highly toxic Cd-based QDs exist (e.g., InP, AgInS2), but the near infrar
Prediction and prevention of aeroelastic risks for highly flexible HALE pseudo-satellites – FlexHALE
High-altitude long-endurance (HALE) pseudo-satellites are drones powered by solar energy. Their almost unlimited endurance makes them a green satellite alternative. Most past and actual drone prototypes have experienced major aero-structural issues. Their highly flexible wings are extremely sensitiv
Spatial representations in a life-span perspective : Cognitive and developmental factors in the construction of real and virtual itineraries – SpaLife
The aim of the present project is to study how humans process spatial information to construct and use mental models of relevant to itineraries in large-scale way-finding situations. It will advance our knowledge of human spatial cognition in three ways. First, it brings together researchers from di
Vers une théorie critique des industries créatives. – CULTURECREATION
Today the communication science based approach to cultural industries is both sufficiently consistent and somewhat fragmented; the time has therefore come to undertake a critical and epistemological reflexion, which is all the more vital since a number of its most significant contributions date back
