Social and medico-social actors facing the crisis generated by Covid-19 – CRISEsoc.JdB
principles underlying the French "transformation de l'offre du médico-social". The descriptive study [...] generally the public authorities to manage this type of crisis as well as the exit from the crisis.
Design and evaluation of Covid screening strategies in various contexts based on empirical contact data – Coscreen
COSCREEN addresses the urgent and crucial need to design, validate and optimize new strategies of repeated testing and screening in contexts such as schools, offices, universities. We will design detailed realistic numerical simulations of the spread of COVID-19 that take into account the whole complexity of contacts between individuals by leveraging empirical high-resolution contact data. This will provide realistic scenarios and optimized policies for use by policy makers.
Role of Tbx3 in directing the functional identity of POMC neurons in obesity – neuroIDobese
Chronic consumption of hypercaloric diets may trigger a ‘neuronal identity crisis’ in certain subpopulations of hypothalamic neurons due to the impaired action of the T-box gene 3 (Tbx3), a transcription factor that maintains hypothalamic neurons identity during postnatal life. Such a loss of identity may undermine the working machinery of POMC neurons, ultimately leading to obesity and its associated metabolic complications, albeit this hypothesis has yet to be investigated.
Mountain huts as observatories of tourism transition. The repositioning of less-developed mountain areas and their related professions in the French-Swiss Alps – HutObsTour

Knowledge-enhanced information extraction across languages for pharmacovigilance – KEEPHA
methods that automatically digest these different types of text sources and jointly extract such knowledge [...] natural language processing. NAIST (JP) has created the de-facto natural language processing tools for Japanese [...] extracting knowledge from scholarly documents. DFKI (DE) has a strong background in corpus generation, general
Identification of patients at risk of torsade de pointes, a life-threatening arrhythmia, using ECGs and deep learning – DeepECG4U
Some cardiovascular diseases (congenital long QT syndrome, cLQTS) or drug-induced long QT syndrome (diLQTS), can cause Torsade de Pointes (TdP), a life-threatening arrhythmia. On the ECG, the QT interval is prolonged, but the waveforms have specificities, thus being poorly predictive of TdP. New predictive approaches are needed to improve physician assessment and reduce the risk of TdP events.
Synthesis of hYbride fuNctionalized and catalyzEd MOFs foR the storaGe of hYdrogen – SYNYERGY
The main challenge of the SYNERGY project is to highlight the possibility of modifying locally and at the molecular scale the nature and organization of metallo-organic networks by plasma treatments, dry physico-chemical processes renowned for their reliability and their small environmental footprints. The application objective is oriented to H2 storage.
The Promises of Soil Carbon Sequestration: Innovations, Organisations, Knowledge – POSCA
Aiming to balance greenhouse gas emissions and the sequestering capacities of non-atmospheric sinks, the Paris Agreement reached at the COP 21 in 2015 signals the new centrality of carbon sinks, including soils, as a key means of enabling climate stability. POSCA focuses on the rising promotion of soil as carbon sink in climate policies and how this is reconfiguring the way in which we come to know and manage soil.
The Apis mellifera channelome: an invaluable tool to study agroecosystems contaminants – Synaptic-Bee
What effects do insecticides have on bees? on the larvae? on the flight ? on the ability to communicate? by what biological mechanisms do they occur? what are the signals that could warn us of intoxication? It is to all these questions, essential for our future, that this project seeks to answer.
