Pharmaceutical residues and ecotoxicology in seawater – Pharm@ecotox
* * * * The pharmaceutical substances represent a diverse collection of over 1000 biologically active molecules used in human and veterinary medicine. Increased consumption of drugs and the development of more powerful analytical techniques in environmental resulted in the identification of these em
Emergence of Acheulian in north-western Europe: an interdisciplinary study – PremAcheuSept
The PremAcheuSept project focused on the modalities of emergence of Acheulean in Northern Europe in France (Loire and Somme basins including the Abbeville sector) and in Great-Britain (Paleo-Bytham and Solent Rivers). Some sites yield evidence of an early onset of this tradition beyond the 45e paral
Animals and Animality in French and Francophone Literature (20th-21st Centuries) – Animots
In the intellectual chorus on animality, literary discourse and representation are seldom considered by an academic criticism whose views on animality are limited to traditional approaches (allegorical analysis, regional studies, limitation to minor genres). However, since the beginning of the 20th
The democracy in front of environmental stakes – DEMOENV
The research programme "The democracy in front of environmental stakes" (DEMOENV) has the object of examining new and decisive questions facing democratic societies as a result of environmental problematics, by combining the approaches of sociology, anthropology, economics, politics, jurispr
Analysis and Spatial Simulation of Dengue Emergence – AEDESS
Apparue dans les années 1945-50, la dengue intègre de manière significative le panel de maladies « mondiales émergentes» dans les années 1970-1980. La maladie reste un enjeu sanitaire mondial majeur puisque la fièvre de dengue, forme simple de la maladie, affecterait selon le « Pediatric Dengue Vacc
Early life effects of Bisphenol A on the maturing gut barrier and metabolic programming in the liver and adipose tissue: long term consequences in adulthood – PerinaTox
In the last decade evidences have accumulated that exposure to low doses of endocrine disruptors during the foetal and neonatal periods may favour the emergence of diseases in adulthood. Regarding the striking example of diethylstilbestrol prescribed to pregnant women from the 1940s to the 80s, rece
Early language acquisition : experimental and computational approaches – BootLang
Children across all cultures acquire quickly and reliably the language or languages spoken in their environment. Whereas the developmental landmarks of language acquisition during the first years of life have been described with increasing levels of detail, the mechanisms underpinning them remain po
Coming into the World Social environment at Birth, Family Structures and Early Education – VENIROMOND
The aim of the project is twofold. 1) To analyse caring and educational practices during the first year of life, and the development over time of the relations that mothers and fathers establish with their children. 2) To capture the diversity of these relations and practices through the mothers’ an
Professional trajectories in hybridizing regimes: the case of nanotechnologies – Hybridtrajectories
The emergence of scientific and technological fields can follow three distinct technological trajectories: 1) a major disruption with regard to the previous technologies (e.g. biotechnologies which emerged through “destructive creation” among the life sciences); 2) a cumulative regime where previous
Diamane: A new Frontier in materials science – DIAMAT
Single-layer diamond (‘diamane’) has emerged as a new and exciting 2D allotrope of carbon due to its physical novelty and technological implication for energy devices, nano-optics and nano-electronics. However, there is a significant knowledge gap in the study of diamane – its preparation is still i
