Ocean Modeling Community – COMODO
The ocean, coupled with other components (atmosphere, continent, and ice) is a building block of the earth system. Recent events have raised questions on social and economic implications of anthropic alterations of the earth system, i.e. both its long-term evolution and extreme events. A better unde
NuAGES -- a New cloud Architecture for General Extraction Services. – NuAGES
The Internet Memory Research foundation in Paris is home to Europe's most sophisticated web archiving technology. On the other side of La Manche the applicant's team at the University of Sheffield develop a world-leading infrastructure for text processing -- GATE, a General Architecture for Text Eng
Novel pharmacological strategies for modulation of capillary leakage during sepsis – SEPSIS-Perm
Sepsis is defined as life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection, i.e. a life-threatening condition that arises when the body’s response to an infection injures its own tissues and organs (doi:10.1001/jama.2016.0287). Sepsis is thus a syndrome of physiologi
Nietzsche’s Private Library on the Web: Digital Edition and Philosophical Commentary – BibNietzsche
The interest of an author’s library for the study of the genesis of works is obvious: entering the library of a writer, a philosopher, a historian, consulting the books and manuscripts of his workshop allows to grasp more easily the paths of creation. The importance of an author’s library for the hi
New technologies and engineering laboratory for therapeutic ultrasound – TechnoFUS-Lab
Focused Ultrasound Therapies (FUS, or HIFU for High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) emerged in the 2000s as new therapies, completely non-invasive, based on the physical interaction between the high intensity ultrasound wave and the tissue to be treated. FUS therapies make it possible for example to b
New symmetries for Gromov-Witten theory – ThéorieGW
This project is the natural follow-up of recent results by the applicants Boissière, Chaput, Chiodo, Mann, Perrin and Zvonkine, which shed new light on important symmetries in Gromov-Witten theory, a major branch in algebraic geometry inspired by theoretical physics. The method is to exploit the com
New antibacterial compounds targeting NAD kinase – ANAKIN (Anti-NAd-Kinase)
With emergence of multidrug-resistant pathogens, the need for new antibiotics acting on unexplored targets has never been so important. NAD kinases are essential enzymes in bacteria and attractive targets for the development of selective antibacterial drugs. We recently identified, following a “targ
New Implications of Lyman-Alpha forests for Cosmology – NILAC
Merging the expertise of experimentalists and theorists, the aim of this project is to optimally exploit the information embedded in quasar spectra in order to provide the tightest constraints to date on neutrino masses, on inflation, and on the nature of dark matter. Specifically, it will address t
Networked Warehouse Management Systems 2: packing with complex shapes – Net-WMS-2
Existing Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) provide advanced features to manage the movement of items within the warehouse, but fail to comply with the increasing demand on more numerical handling, in particular for achieving a flexible supply chain model capable of handling personalised orders in a
NORFACE Call for Proposals “Dynamics of Inequality Across the Life-course: structures and processes”
ANR participates in the call for proposals “Dynamics of Inequality Across the Life-course: structures and processes” of the NORFACE network. Existing and rising inequalities pose fundamental challenges to European societies and economies. The increasing gulf between rich and poor, exacerbated
