Sensorineural hearing loss involves damage to hair cells, the sensory transducers of the auditory system, and/or the auditory neurons that transmit this information to the brain. Once these cells are lost the body does not naturally regenerate them. Elsewhere it has been shown that cells of one type may be converted into another cell type. […]

Ranking biological data is a difficult task for various reasons. Hence several ranking methods have been proposed, but none of them has been deployed on systems currently used by the scientific community. This is why a good solution is, given a set of rankings, to find a consensus ranking that reflect their common points while […]

Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) is a popular tool for the deposition of thin film materials that are common in solar cells, sensors and display technologies. However, the need for a vacuum environment and slow material growth rates restricts ALD applicability in large scale commercial and industrial materials production. Atmospheric Pressure Spatial Atomic Layer Deposition (AP-SALD […]

This project aims at investigating productive uncertainty as a determinant factor in stimulating the exploration of innovation. Data will be collected through stakeholder interviews and observations of technological intelligence practices at Université de Bordeaux’s Via Inno lab. Via Inno engages with industrial partners to explore future development opportunities, which present an ideal case study to […]

Nitrate is a major contaminant of modern groundwater and terrestrial ecosystems. It is also involved in the generation and destruction of nitrogen bearing greenhouse gasses. In order to assess how nitrate is cycled in the Earth surface environment, as well as in recent Earth history , it requires the generation of pristine records that record […]

L’objectif général de ce projet est de développer une méthode de traitement électrolytique d’oxydation avancée (EOA) et d’optimiser son mode de fonctionnement pour le traitement d’eaux de rejets chargées en micropolluants bio-réfractaires tels que les effluents issus de l’industrie pharmaceutique. Ce procédé implique la mise en œuvre de la réduction de l’oxygène pour promouvoir le […]

With the rising concern regarding environmental pollution and greenhouse gases, the demand for clean and renewable energy sources has never been greater. Recent developments in fuel cell technology have been promising; however, these fuel cells may be unsuited for mass production due to the prohibitive cost of the platinum-group metal nanoparticles which are required as […]

Le texte central de ma recherche est la pièce «Le mariage fait par lettre de change» (1735), de Philippe Poisson, une comédie. Si elle a connu un certain succès au XVIIIe siècle, elle a été oubliée depuis longtemps et n’a jamais été éditée sérieusement. En conséquence, personne ne l’a encore étudiée sous l’angle projeté. Ainsi, […]

Amines and phosphines are organic molecules used in every aspect of modern chemistry. Nonetheless, synthetic protocols for the preparation of valuable asymmetric compounds are limited. The project aims at developing atom- and cost-efficient catalysts that will enable the convenient syntheses of these fundamental chemicals. We will develop catalysts based on titanium, zirconium and hafnium, three […]

Erin will work at the the Institute for Research on the Renaissance, the Neo-classical Age and the Enlightenment, a joint research centre (UMR 5186) of the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS). She will take part in the Shakespeare on screen in francophonia research programme, which consists of referencing and analysing Shakespeare adaptations and […]

Chez plusieurs espèces d’oiseaux, les parents travaillent ensemble pour élever leurs jeunes et les traits physiques et comportementaux des parents sont reliés à la survie des petits. Par exemple, ces traits influencent la capacité à disposer d’un bon territoire, à défendre le nid et à trouver de la nourriture. Est-ce que les traits physiques pourraient […]

Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is an incurable progressive myopathy, caused by the absence of the dystrophin protein. It is characterized by permanent myofiber necrosis, leading to continuous activation of muscle stem cells (MuSCs), that eventually cannot support muscle repair leading to replacement of the muscle by fibro/fatty tissue. We have observed that epigenetic changes in […]
