Structural investigations of Bacterial Secretion by Solid-State NMR (SecSysNMR)
Date du début: 1 mai 2014, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2017,
Many cellular processes rely on multi-functional molecular nanomachines, such as the ribosome (protein synthesis), bacterial pili and needles (host-pathogen interaction) or flagella (cell motion). These machines are built by the assembly of multiple copies of protein subunits into large macromolecular structures, also called supramolecular assemblies. Understanding assembly, structure and function ...

SYnthesis and functionality of chalcogenide NAnostructures for PhaSE change memories (SYNAPSE)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2012, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2015,
The SYNAPSE project initially aimed at the metalorganic chemical vapor phase deposition (MOCVD) and study of chalcogenide single material, (core) and double material (core-shell) nanowires (NWs), for innovative multi-level phase change memories (PCM). If Ge-Sb-Te is the most studied material for PCM applications, In-based materials, like In-Sb-Te or In-Ge-Te alloys, are also promising, since they ...

Linking biological and artificial neuronal assemblies to restore lost brain functions: towards the design of innovative bi-directional neuroprostheses (BRAINBOW)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2012, Date de fin: 31 mai 2015,
The possibility to control actions from thoughts is becoming reality thanks to Brain Machine Interfaces (BMIs). However modern BMIs are mostly unidirectional and aimed at restoring lost motor functions. In a wider perspective, neural interfaces must be bi-directional devices that substitute motor, sensory or cognitive circuits within the brain, that might have been damaged as a result of an injury ...

Nano-Scale Organization Dynamics and Functions of Synapses: from single molecule tracking to the physiopathology of excitatory synaptic transmission (NANO-DYN-SYN)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2009, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2014,
Synapses are arguably the most elaborate signaling machine of cells. This complex intercellular junction is specialized for rapid (millisecond) directional signaling. In addition, synapses change in response to patterns of neural activity and these changes can endure, modifying neuronal circuitry. These competing properties of persistence and plasticity must be encoded by the precise content an ...

Communication between Functional Molecules using Photocontrolled Ions (COMMOTION)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2008, Date de fin: 31 août 2013,
The goal of COMMOTION is to establish a strategy whereby functional molecular devices (e.g. photo-/electroactive) can communicate with one another in solution and in organized, self-assembled media (biotic and abiotic). Despite intense research, no single strategy has been shown to satisfactorily connect artificial molecular components in networks. This is perhaps the greatest hurdle to overcome i ...
