Mechanisms of Early Language Acquisition : Brain and Behavior – MELA
Understanding human infants’ remarkable ability to acquire their mother tongue without explicit instruction in the span of a few years has been one of the core questions of cognitive science in the last half century. Far from being solved, the problem continues to challenge and intrigue researchers
Energy trajectories in the metro-regions of the South – TERMOS
Energy resources play a fundamental role in economic development and poverty reduction. In most Southern countries, the challenge rests on the capacity to providing a reliable supply with respect to necessities – especially at the industrial level – while ensuring access to modern energy services fo
The revival of Iberian Imperial States (1808-1930) : an original globalization? – GLOBIBER
Since the World history school emerged in the USA in the 1980s, it has seen strong growth in the Anglo-Saxon world. However, the decentring of perspectives proposed by that school seems to encounter difficulties when dealing with the Iberian Peninsula; according to this view, the loss of the America
Utterance structure in context: language and cognition during acquisition in a cross-linguistic perspective – Langacross_2
1) General aim: to study the implication of linguistic diversity for the relation between language and cognition during language acquisition. 2) Research questions: to examine the typological constraints that influence verbal and non-verbal cognition in native speakers, as well as conceptualization
Phonetic and Phonological Asymetries in Syllable – APPSy
The project "Asymétries Phonétique et Phonologique de la syllabe" (APPSy) seeks to investigate a universal in the structural organization of the syllable, namely the attraction of consonant segments before the vocal nucleus (attack) to the detriment of the position following the vocal nucleus (coda)
Coordination of Arf and Rab small G protein functions by Rab-ArfGEF-Arf1 cascades in membrane trafficking pathways centered on the Golgi – ArfRabCrosstalk
A major goal of the proposal is to elucidate the mechanisms by which the functions of the two families of small G proteins involved in vesicular trafficking – the Arfs and Rabs – are coordinated. Our project is highly original in that it will demonstrate for the first time a new molecular mechanism
Titane Bêta Biocompatible Adaptatif – TIBBIA
In implantology, biointegration of the implant is known to be a major issue for the long term clinical success. This biointegration is conditioned by different kinds or parameters such as the chemical nature and the mechanical compatibility of the material regarding the bone/implant interface. Curre
Le travail du "care" : familles, institutions, situations de crise. – TRAVDUC
The main objective of this program is to study what is at stake in carework, by examining crisis situations and evolution of norms in the context of family life, in order to investigate – and thereby to reformulate – the very idea of care. The program shall focus on conflicts arising about norms of
De la phonologie aux formes lexicales: liaison et cognition en français contemporain – PHONLEX
It is well known that the concept of word, which lies at the heart of most classical morphological and syntactic descriptions, cannot be identified in any direct way from acoustic signals. The problem is particularly acute in French where various phenomena such as liaison, enchaînement (forward syll
Nouveau microsystème dédié à l'immunodiagnostic en phase liquide à base de nanoparticules magnétiques fonctionnalisées – SOLUDIAG
Micro total analytical systems (micro-TAS) meet many needs in separation sciences, among them in diagnosis. These miniaturized systems offer the possibility to provide high throughput analysis, with a low sample and reagent consumption (such as enzymes, receptors, antibodies), allowing the setup of
