Access to clean water is a critical global challenge, with billions facing water scarcity or contamination. This project aims to develop a sustainable water purification system that uses solar energy to convert contaminated or salty water into clean water, offering a low-cost, off-grid solution for rural and resource-limited communities. The system will use solar-driven interfacial […]

This research project investigates how disaster memorial spaces such as museums, monuments, and preserved sites contribute to collective memory and public engagement in different cultural contexts. Focusing on case studies in Japan and drawing comparisons with prior research in Türkiye, the project examines how spatial design, narrative construction, and visitor interaction shape societal understandings of […]

In 2020, there were 19.3 million new cancer cases and 9.9 million related deaths, with 70% occurring in low- and middle-income countries. In Latin America, cancer remains a leading cause of mortality, with cases projected to rise from 4 million in 2020 to 6 million by 2040. Indigenous populations are among the most affected; in […]

The intern Mr. Andersen will travel from Aarhus University, Denmark to Polytechnique Montréal, Canada, to research the engineering of Digital Twins (DTs). DTs are virtual representations of physical systems, like the concrete mixing machine which is the focus of this project. Mr. Andersen will work with Prof. Bentley Oakes on the research problem of ensuring […]

This project will study consumer experience and reaction to shopping in a frictionless or autonomous store environment. Fricitonless stores offer a no-cashier shopping experience using advanced technologies such as computer vision , weight sensors and light sensors. The adoption of some or all aspects of this technology has significant potential benefits for retailers in terms […]

Face à la pollution causée par les plastiques, les bioplastiques apparaissent comme une alternative écologique viable. Toutefois, les limitations existantes de leurs propriétés cherchent à être surmontées grâce au renforcement par des fibres naturelles. Le biopolymère le plus utilisé sur le marché, en particulier dans l’impression 3D, est le PLA grâce à son prix compétitif, […]

Ce projet vise à valoriser les résidus lignocellulosiques en créant des biocomposites imprimables en 3D dans une démarche de développement durable afin de capturer le dioxyde de carbone (CO2). L’acide polylactique (PLA), un polymère biodégradable issu se ressources renouvelables, est associé à du biochar produit à partir de résidus forestiers par pyrolyse, et du tanin, […]

This project aims to improve how we model and understand the global oil and gas market in the context of climate change. It combines detailed data from over 40,000 oil and gas assets worldwide with recent theoretical advances in understanding how market structures interact with climate policies. A key focus is on the role of […]

Cette recherche doctorale examine le rôle de la communication interne dans la croissance socio-économique pérenne des startups (Fintech) en Afrique de l’Ouest (Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire et Nigeria). S’appuyant sur l’approche constitutive de la communication, elle scrute comment la communication interne (dés)organise les dynamiques internes des startups et leur croissance. Positionnant la startup comme une […]

Les protéines TRM, identifiées par le groupe de recherche Contrôle Spatial de la Division Cellulaire (IJPB, INRAE de Versailles) sont des déterminants de la taille et de la forme du pistil (gynécée) et du fruit. Ce projet vise à comprendre les fonctions des protéines TRM au cours de la morphogenèse du gynécée, à savoir comment […]

The proposed project will compare different ways of turning seaweed into eco-friendly fertilizers by using a life cycle assessment (LCA) approach that includes uncertainty and regional differences. This research will help identify the most sustainable and scalable production methods, contributing to climate-smart agriculture and reducing reliance on synthetic fertilizers. The collaboration between the University of […]

The proposed project aims to develop sustainable cellulose-based aerogels containing conductive materials like MXenes and graphene for electromagnetic interference shielding and energy storage applications. By exploring interfacial assembly mechanisms through advanced characterization techniques available at CEMES-CNRS, such as in-situ electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy, the research will clarify how these materials form structured aerogels. Understanding […]
