Environment, Natural Resources, and Advances in Industrial Organization – ENRAIO
Most societies now recognize that environmental policies, and natural resources management, have a major impact on their welfare. The public debates about such issues are both ubiquitous and controversial. By contrast, economists rely on a well-known corpus (the Pigovian approach to externalities, a
Perceptual bases of early lexical acquisition: an integrated developmental program – PBELA
The acquisition of a lexicon requires several abilities that can be schematically grouped into three different sets: ability to represent the sound pattern of a given word; ability to build the concept corresponding to that given word; and ability to link a sound pattern to its appropriate concept (
Analyse du transcriptome des interactions entre le blé et le champignon pathogène Septoria tritici (Mycosphaerella graminicola) – TWIST
Wheat is the most widely grown and consumed food crop in the world. It is the staple food of nearly 35% of the world population, and demand for wheat is expected to grow faster than for any other major crop. Fungal diseases are a major concern for wheat production. Among them, Septoria tritici (syn.
MILIEUX OF THE DYING: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF LIVING AND DYING WITH NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASES IN FRANCE AND CALIFORNIA. – VITALMORTEL
VITALMORTEL seeks to put into comparative perspective emerging societal challenges of care for those living with neurodegenerative diseases, and of care for the dying. This will be achieved by ethnographically attending to the trials and tests of the last stages of life for a person affected by a ce
Collective quantum phenomena in the Terahertz spotlight – QuaPTer
Quantum materials are complex systems hosting a wide variety of low energy quantum orders which are often intertwined together. They defy fundamental understanding as much as they gather hopes for their technological use provided that we can understand and control their collective quantum phenomena.
Electronic properties of thin layers of rhombohedral graphite – RhomboG
This project aims at the elaboration and fabrication of thin layers of graphite (nanometer thickness, 10-30 layers) with a rhombohedral stacking. This carbon polytype is not the most stable in ambient conditions and is hence much less abundant than the well-known Bernal stacked polytype. Electronic
Polaritonic devices based on hybrid perovskite in novel photonic crystal design – POPEYE
Cavity polaritons have recently emerged as a potential platform for all-optical logical devices. These exotic information carriers arise from the strong coupling of photons emitted in optical cavities and excitons generated in quantum wells. Thanks to their hybrid light/matter nature, polaritons can
MOBILITES, FRONTIERES ET CONFLITS DANS LES ESPACES ISRAELO PALESTINIENS ET LEUR PERIPHERIE – MOFIP
This project analyses the trans-border mobility and exchanges between Israel, the Palestinian territories and their neighbouring countries since the signing of the Oslo Agreement (1993). It is because these exchanges and mobility take place at the margins of groups predefined according to administra
Weak metal-metal interactions for selectivity in organometallic and coordination chemistry – Dispersion Directed Associations – WEAKINTERMET-2DA
The aim of this project was to round by various approaches the role of van der Waals forces and particularly that of London in the stabilization of transition metal complexes with unsaturated valence shell and to establish the role of the same forces in the formation of molecular aggregates of squar
Mechanisms of action and targets of new antimalarial redox molecules – MaTuRe
The emergence of resistance of Plasmodium falciparum (P. falciparum), the most virulent parasite species for humans, has been a major difficulty to treat malaria in the last four decades. These indications prompt the need for new antimalarial drugs which ideally should act with novel mechanisms of a
