Computational modeling of Human Embryonic Development
In vitro fertilization needs novel approaches to improve the pregnancy rate. The recent advent of novel technologies, such as transcriptomics, proteomics, and imaging, represents a opportunity to consider each embryo individually and to understand embryo developmental steps from a genetic and metabolic point of view. In this PhD thesis we aim to model, using logic programs, the transcriptomic data issued from Human embryos to understand their development.► Download the entire PhD offer
Multi-scale modelling of the influence of trees on urban microclimate and pollutant dispersion
In a context of global warming and urban population growth, preventing the health risks associated with heat waves and high exposure to anthropogenic pollutants is a major challenge. The aim of the thesis is to study the impact of trees on urban micro-meteorology and the dispersion of particulate pollutants, from the neighborhood to the street scale and under different conditions of atmospheric stability.

Improvement of miniaturized metallic components
Applications close on 11 May 2024.The necessary contribution of transport, energy or electronics industries to sustainable development leads them to lighten structures and/or reduce the dimensions of their parts, particularly in terms of sheet thickness, but also to use materials with a mechanical behavior remaining efficient, even when they are miniaturized.
