Labour market responses to taxes: a structural approach – Structtax
Social security contribuions represent a considerable proportion of labour cost across all OECD countries (25% in 2008), rising to 40% in some continental European countries. The aim of the Structax project is to estimate the impact of social security contributions on the labour market based on e
Communication and Information in Games on Networks – CIGNE
This research project aims at analyzing the strategic use of communication and information in dynamic games where interaction, communication or information possibilities revolve around a network. More precisely, the first objective is to study dynamic interactions with communication networks. A com
Integrated IR sensor based on SEIRA effect for an efficient detection use of low concentration chemical and biological species – LOUISE
In recent decades, the seas and oceans have been subject to special monitoring taking into account the socio-economic and ecological interests at stake. The detection and measurement of trace of chemical pollutants (such as hydrocarbons or pesticides) is the cornerstone of many oceanographic issues
Towards a Regional Ocean/ Ice Sheet / Atmosphere modeling System – TROIS-AS
The TROIS-AS project is designed to build a regional modeling system enabling the representation of physical mechanisms and feedbacks at the ocean/ice-sheet and atmosphere/ice-sheet interfaces. The scientific aim is to quantify the contribution of a key region of Antarctica to global sea level rise
Improving the volumetric energy density of supercapacitors – IVEDS
This proposal aims to address a major issue for the energy storage, management and integration in the grid, addressed in the “Clean, Safe and Efficient Energy” challenge (#2), especially on the “improvement of the safety and energy density of supercapacitors” (Research theme #5). IVEDS is based on t
ANGIOGENESIS, A NEW THERAPEUTIC TARGET IN OSTEOARTHRITIS (OA) AND ASSOCIATED PAIN – OA-ANGIO-ANALGESIA
OA, a major public health issue worldwide, will affect 20% of the world population by 2050. To date, there is no approved safe and effective disease-modifying OA drug (DMOAD). The current therapeutic arsenal treats the symptoms (inflammation, pain); they do not halt the disease progression, neither
SHAPE-SELECTIVE GROWTH AND ORGANIZATION OF INORGANIC NANO-MATERIALS WITHIN PORES OF REUSABLE CRYSTALLINE SUPRAMOLECULAR MATRIXES – InsidePores
An essential step of the overall process is the insertion of the molecular precursors of the NPs into the porosity of the matrix. To achieve efficient and fast loading, it is desirable that the incoming guests have weak interactions with the matrix. For this reason, the selected matrixes have the wa
Bismuth for antimonide based semiconductors – BIOMAN
The antimonide based semiconductors are the material system comprising GaSb, AlSb, InAs and all their related alloys, such as GaInAsSb or AlGaAsSb for example. They have unique properties in terms of band-gap, band-offsets and carrier effective masses, making them the materials of choice for realizi
Automatic Extraction of Geolinguistic Atlas Content and Spatial Analysis: application to Dialectology – ECLATS
Dialectology addresses the study of the linguistic features of languages having a strong oral tradition such as local dialects. These linguistic features are diverse : phonetic, morphosyntactic, lexical, semantic or prosodic. They are also context-dependant: they evolve according to (geographical) s
The physics of multicellular organization in bacteria – BactPhys
We propose a novel approach to study bacterial multicellular organization based on physical mechanisms in order to identify the minimum elements of biochemical regulation required to coordinate complex processes such as bacterial clustering, stream formation, and fruiting body formation. This is a m
