Nuclear export of Influenza RNA segments – NEPTUNE
Influenza A virus (IAV) is a highly infectious respiratory pathogen that continues to be a significant threat to global public health. Wild aquatic birds being the natural hosts for most IAV, they also infect multitudinous animal species in addition to humans. Due to his wildlife circulation and thr
Dynamics of Learning: Behaviour and Lived Experiences. The role of exploratory strategies – DynACEV
This interdisciplinary project mixes research in the humanities and computational sciences to understand and explain the role of visual-motor exploratory strategies and lived experiences (e.g. individual concerns), in analysis of learning dynamics of fire-fighters. Traditionally, learning is studied
“Night at the museum”: filling the gaps in the history of emergence of important crop pathogenic bacteria using historical material – MUSEOBACT
In order to better control current diseases of plants and prevent future epidemics, it is crucial to develop an improved understanding of the factors underlying pathogen emergence, adaptation and spread. Recent methodological developments in molecular epidemiology now allow tackling such question th
SEX-biased transmission and Infection dynamics in BATs – SEXIBAT
The emergence of zoonotic infectious diseases is a recurrent phenomenon with major public health and economic consequences. Some of recent outbreaks, such as those caused by Middle East Respiratory Syndrome and Ebola viruses, have highlighted the necessity of understanding processes driving the tran
INTROGRESSION PHENOMENA IN THE STUDY OF THE GENETIC DIVERSITY OF TOXOPLASMA BETWEEN FRANCE AND WEST AND CENTRAL AFRICA: POSSIBLE ENVIRONMENTAL AND HUMAN INFLUENCES – IntroTox
Toxoplasma gondii infection is a ubiquitous zoonosis that affects all warm-blooded species. It has a complex epidemiology due to the wide range of hosts and transmission pathways involved. In human, it is generally benign in immunocompetent persons, life-threatening cerebral and multivisceral forms,
Discovering knowledge in historical prosopographical databases – DAPHNE
The evolution and maturity of information technology have facilitated the emergence of a new way of research which aims at using the power of computers to literary and historical research. Digital Humanities today became a separate discipline whose goal, both societal and technology, is to go beyond
The dual-system hypothesis of anosognosia: the interplay between emotional processing and self-monitoring in neurodegenerative patients – NOT_AWARE
The ability to appraise our own performance is a unique component of human functioning. It is impaired in brain diseases responsible for anosognosia, resulting in poor self-appraisal of one's own deficits. Anosognosia negatively impacts on capacity issues, such as treatment compliance and the patien
Epigenome dysregulation in link with substance use and mental health in young people – EPI_young
Epigenetic regulation is crucial for neuronal functioning and synaptic plasticity and epigenetic mechanisms were consistently reported as highly involved in pathophysiology of psychiatric disorders. Epigenetic dysregulation could account for the high heterogeneity of these disorders, their phenotypi
Event-based VIsual SERvoing – e-VISER
When a drone (or unmanned aerial vehicle) has to operate on its environment, it is called an aerial manipulator. These robots embed a robotic arm or a gripper to allow the grasping or the transport of objects. Aerial manipulators combine the large working area capacity of drones with the dexterity a
Augmenting Fab Labs by Integrating Data Visualizations – AfFABLe
Fab labs are workshops which make powerful fabrication machines available to a wide audience to create physical and computational artifacts. The machinery available in fab labs was previously solely available to experts, partly because it is expensive and partly because their use requires a certain
