Basic mechanisms balancing plant growth-defense tradeoffs, and influence of global warming – BUGSTER
Plants must grow fast enough to compete with their neighbors, while surviving in the presence of pathogens. Rather than stopping their growth to defend themselves, plants often strike a balance between defense and growth to satisfy simultaneous and yet metabolically conflicting demands. Understandin
Basic mechanisms of heterochromatin replication: the telomere connection – TELOCHROM
Constitutive heterochromatin (cHC), a key compartment of chromosomes essential for genome stability, is particularly difficult to replicate due to its dense organization and its enrichment in repetitive DNA. Recently a ground-breaking concept emerged from E. Gilson’s team (Partner 1) studies showing
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
Beginning Teachers’ Motivation Trajectory: a developmental approach to understand its evolution during the transition from initial training to the first years in the profession – BTM-Traj
The BTM-traj project is set against the backdrop of a deep crisis in the teaching profession, marked by a decline in attractiveness, a growing shortage of vocations, and a worrying rise in early resignations. For over a decade, educational systems in France and internationally have struggled to recr
Behavioural Plasticity, Metabolomics and Social Transitions in Spiders – MetaSpi
Sociality is present in all lineages and represents a major evolutionary transition. The maintenance of social cohesion in juveniles at advanced stages is considered the main pathway for the emergence of permanent sociality. Spiders are relevant models for exploring the mechanisms involved in social
Behaviours and collective spatial representations in urban areas: Incidence of instrumental and shared mapping in pedestrian navigation situations – CORES
Behaviours and collective spatial representations in urban areas: Incidence of instrumental and shared mapping in pedestrian navigation situations The practice of walking in urban areas has been considerably transformed since the arrival of instrumental mapping tools like Google Maps. After seve
Behaviours and spatial patterns related to the buruli Ulcer disease – COPTER-UB
Buruli ulcer is one of the 17 neglected tropical infectious diseases in the world. It is caused by the bacteria M. ulcerans and its symptoms are necrotizing cutaneous lesions.Buruli ulcer affects populations with weak access to sanitation, safe water and care living in rural areas of west and centr
Being parents of child with cancer : experiences and adaptation process during the Covid-19 health crisis – PACCO
The health crisis and lockdown have led to a number of upheavals, including in the care of children and adolescents with cancer and their families. Psychosocial support, driven by public policies (Cancer Plans) - "school in hospital", physicals, play and creative activities, presence of both parents
Belmont Forum and JPI Climate: launching of an international call on climate services
In a context of globalisation, the variability of the polar and tropical systems affects a large part of the world's population. Extremes such as sub-seasonal breaks of monsoon rains up to decadal trends in rainfall intensity have a strong impact on water resources for agriculture, industry and wate
Beneficial role of a bacterial quorum sensing molecule in gut barrier integrity and inflammation during inflammatory bowel disease – QUOBII
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a multifactorial pathology characterized by impairment of the intestinal barrier and an excessive immune response to gut microbiota. The intestinal microbiota produces numerous metabolites and small molecules that are considered to be key players in microbiota-hos
