Friction stir processing based local damage mitigation and healing in aluminium alloys (ALUFIX)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2017, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2021,
ALUFIX proposes an original strategy for the development of aluminium-based materials involving damage mitigation and extrinsic self-healing concepts exploiting the new opportunities of the solid-state friction stir process. Friction stir processing locally extrudes and drags material from the front to the back and around the tool pin. It involves short duration at moderate temperatures (typically...

Force nanoscopy of staphylococcal biofilms (NanoStaph)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2016, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2021,
Staphylococcus aureus is a leading cause of hospital-acquired infections, which are often complicated by the ability of this pathogen to grow as biofilms on indwelling medical devices. Because biofilms protect the bacteria from host defenses and are resistant to many antibiotics, biofilm-related infections are difficult to fight and represent a tremendous burden on our healthcare system. Today, a ...

Semiparametric Inference for Complex and Structural Models in Survival Analysis (COSMOS)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2016, Date de fin: 31 août 2021,
In survival analysis investigators are interested in modeling and analysing the time until an event happens. It often happens that the available data are right censored, which means that only a lower bound of the time of interest is observed. This feature complicates substantially the statistical analysis of this kind of data. The aim of this project is to solve a number of open problems related t...

Date du début: 1 avr. 2016, Date de fin: 31 mars 2021,
Regulatory T lymphocytes (Tregs) inhibit immune responses and are required to maintain immune tolerance. Tregs express membrane protein GARP, which displays latent TGF-β1 on the cell surface. Immunosuppression by human Tregs appears to require GARP-mediated activation of TGF-β1.My objectives are to unravel the molecular aspects of TGF-β1 activation by GARP and determine the functional importance o...
