Multi-scale structural evolution of a thermoelectric selenide upon densification

Olivier HERNANDEZ · Andy FITCH

Thermoelectric (TE) materials, which allow the conversion of heat into electricity, are promising candidates for sustainable energy conversion technologies. Layered compounds such as non-stoichiometric ZrSey (y≈2) appear as a potential TE material. This proposal aims (i) to better characterize the controversial real st...

Structural origin of aging-induced relaxations in bulk metallic glasses

Birte RIECHERS · Yuanhui XIE · Reza RASHIDI · Andrea FANTIN · y 1 más

Metallic glasses (MGs) exceptionally combine the strength and elasticity of metals with an amorphous structure, producing amongst the strongest and toughest metals known. Despite their exceptional properties, MGs face a serious problem: they are inherently metastable and known to exhibit abrupt und currently unpredicta...

CryoEM BAG for Ile-de-France

Pauline JUYOUX · Marie PREVOST · Giacomo CARLONI

We are a group of structural biologists based in Paris that would like to benefit from high-end data collection shifts at ESRF. Our research spans various life science fields: bacterial transporters and machineries (Biou, Broutin, Bellinzoni, Gubellini, Izadi-Pruneyre, Mechaly, Petrella), nucleic acid research (Leullio...

Understanding the self-assembly of cellulose nanocrystals dispersions comprising stimuli-responsive polymers

Alberto FIDI · Justus WESSELER (ORCID: 0000-0003-2494-771X) · Martin ROSENTHAL · Alessandro IANIRO · y 2 más

Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are high-aspect ratio colloids that self-organize into liquid crystalline phases in solution. Taking advantage of this self- organization behaviour, we strive to develop soft CNC-based artificial muscles capable of directional (anisotropic) actuation. To this end, we decorate the CNCs with...

Novel robust bottlebrush hydrogels with hidden chain length reservoirs

IOANNIS MOUTSIOS · Dimitri IVANOV · ALEXIS IVANOV · Peter BOESECKE · y 1 más

In the present proposal, we will implement a facile one-pot synthesis of single-stranded bottlebrush networks with a relatively hydrophobic poly(2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate) (PHEMA) backbone and hydrophilic poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) (PMOx) side chains to prepare hydrogels with a modulus below <1 kPa and swelling ratios...

Partial crystallization in silicates and Fe alloys: Cooling down a planet

Benjamin MONTOUT--EHRMANN · Lucie CANET · Daniele ANTONANGELI · JOAO ELIAS FIGUEIREDO SOARES RODRIGUES · y 5 más

Crystallization is a critical process in Earth-like planetary evolution. In the early stage of planetary formation, differentiation between metallic core and silicate mantle happens in the liquid state but upon secular cooling, crystallization starts both in the mantle and the core. Here, we aim at developing a new tim...

Belgium BAG

Ahmed SHEMY (ORCID: 0000-0002-3599-846X) · Yunong ZHANG · Laurens BOURDA · Sergei STRELKOV · y 6 más

The Belgium BAG includes groups situated at four Flemish universities: Antwerpen, Brussels, Ghent and Leuven. The proposed projects are highly diverse, including viral, prokaryotic and eukaryotic proteins with a strong focus on targets and processes of biomedical relevance. Many projects deal with membrane proteins, ce...
