Biodiversity changes in African forests and Emerging Infectious Diseases: should we worry? – BIODIV-AFREID
Biodiversity in Afrotropical forests is declining dramatically due to deforestation and intensified bushmeat trade. At the same time there is an increased frequency of outbreaks of emerging infectious diseases (EID) that have a natural reservoir in wild small mammals. The effect of biodiversity chan
Biodiversité, Agroécosystèmes, Société, Climat
The overarching objectives of the LabEx BASC are to develop and mobilize science to support improvements in the provision of food, fiber and bioenergy for people, while at the same reducing the negative impacts of human activities on biodiversity, ecosystem services, the climate, and the quality of
Biofilm Adaptation to Biocides and Impact on Antibioresistance – BAoBAb
The BAoBAb project is positioned at the interface between food safety and the fight against antimicrobial resistance, within a One Health framework. While antibiotic use is recognised as a major driver of resistance selection, the role of biocides used for surface disinfection remains poorly assesse
Biogenèse de la poche flagellaire , caractérisation de l’organelle d’endo-exocytose chez Trypanosoma brucei. – Bio-Pocket
Trypanosoma brucei is a flagellated protozoan parasite that is used as a model organism to study biological phenomena such as gene expression, protein trafficking and cytoskeleton biogenesis. In T. brucei and related parasites endo- and exocytosis occurs exclusively through a specialized, sequestere
Biogeochemical Impact of Iron released by Marine particles of sedimentary and hydrothermal origin – BIIM
BIIM aims to 1) assess the processes leading to the net dissolution of abiotic particulate iron from sedimentary and hydrothermal origin, and 2) evaluate its impact on marine biogeochemistry. This is a crucial topic, as dissolved iron controls marine biological productivity and carbon sequestration
Biogeochemical consequences of diatom infection by marine viruses – BONUS
Viruses have multiple and globally significant biogeochemical impacts via the metabolic reprogramming and mortality (lysis) of their microbial hosts. Viral lysis modulates food-web dynamics by diverting the living biomass away from higher trophic levels and redirecting it into the microbial loop. Th
Biohydrogen production: towards an innovative added-value bioprocess in anaerobic digestion-based waste treatment plant – ProBHyM
While anaerobic digestion has regained a lot of interest with intensive industrial development in the field of waste treatment, fermentation processes represent a great potential way of innovation, particularly for the production of hydrogen, as emerging energy carrier. The main objective of the Pro
Bioinspired acetylenic molecules for antituberculosis drug development – Beam4TB
Tuberculosis (TB), caused by the Koch bacillus Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), is a millennial global health problem, still responsible today for 1.4 million deaths and approximately 10 million new cases each year. Facing the lack of efficacy of vaccination, the emergence of antibiotic-resistant s
Bioinspired interface engineering of DGL-based hydrogel with high mechanical performance and bioactive properties for in vitro biomaterial platform – DENDRICELLPLATFORM
Stem Cells (SCs) are involved in the structuration or regeneration of all tissues of the body and have numerous foreseen applications in tissue engineering. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), present in very small quantities in adults, are multipotent cells which are an important source for cell therapy
