CARBON MONOXIDE-RELEASING MOLECULES (CO-RMs) AS THERAPEUTIC AGENTS TO PROMOTE WOUND HEALING – CO-HEAL
Chronic wounds are a major healthcare problem associated with high hospitalization costs and morbidity, affecting particularly diabetic patients. Apart from wound dressings and antibiotics, there is presently very limited choice for the medical community when deciding which drug therapy to employ f
CARdiomyocyte-derived extracellular vesicles and inter-organ DIalogue after Myocardial infarction – CARDIM
Cardiovascular diseases, particularly myocardial infarction (MI), remain the leading cause of mortality worldwide. MI triggers an inflammatory response essential for the repair of the damaged myocardium. This inflammatory response is an emergency mechanism involving multiple organs, such as the sple
CArbon and Microwaves-based Ultrasensitive gas Sensors – CAMUS
In the areas of safety, health and environment, the detection of chemical compounds, VOCs and toxic gases, is a major societal concern. The explosion in recent years in the telecommunications market has led to the emergence of concept of sensor network. This new concept of communicating objects meet
CArbon nanotube LASEr (Reloaded) – Ca (Re-)Lase !
Silicon photonics is an active research field, either to solve metallic interconnects inside microchips or for telecommunications. The realisation of such an «optical link« imply developing basic functions such as laser source, optical modulator and photodetector. Today, no sigle material can realis
CArbon phaSe Transitions prObed by Raman Spectroscopy – CASTORS
The CASTORS project aims to gnaw through challenging problems of contemporary science in the emerging field of both warm dense matter and non-equilibrium physics. This project will explore the ability of time-resolved Raman spectroscopy (T-RRS) to probe dynamics and characterize structural propertie
CAtalysts for AmMOnia OXidation – CAMOolOX
The project focuses on the design of molecular catalysts for the oxidation of ammonia. This field is part of the recent emergence of ammonia as an alternative energy carrier to hydrogen. Indeed, ammonia is produced on a large scale (150 Mt/year), it has a high energy density of 11.5 MJ L-1 (compared
CD4+ T cell-independent production of allo-antibodies in transplantation: mechanisms and therapeutic potential – ESPRIT
To test whether CD4+ T cell are dispensable for the generation of anti donor MHC alloantibodies following a transplantation In contrast with WT controls, CD4+ T cell deficient recipients did not develop a detectable antibody response against their grafts nor their transplants. To test the effect
CELTIC GOLD : Fine metal work in the Western Latène culture – CELTIC GOLD
The aim of the project is to contribute to the understanding of the economic, social, artistic and technological development of the continental part of the Western Latène Culture (mid 5th-1rst centuries BC) through the study of the production and consumption of gold objects. This culture of the La
CENTRE OF EXCELLENCE FOR BREAKTHROUGHS IN NUCLEAR MEDICINE FOR NON-COMMUNICABLE DISEASES – FAHAM
Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) represent a major health challenge in Europe, accounting for 91% of deaths. La Réunion is particularly affected with a notably high incidence of NCDs such as diabetes and lower 5-year survival rates for cancer. Many cancer patients are diagnosed at advanced stages,
CHARacterization of natural products bioactivities in New Caledonian Marine microorganisms – CHARM
Currently, 700,000 deaths are yearly attributed to antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in the world and this number is estimated to increase to 10 million by 2050. Indeed, the widespread use of antibiotics has led to the emergence of ‘superbugs’ such as Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)
