Biodiversity restoration and conservation of remarkable military lands in southeast France (Life Défense Nature 2 MIL)
Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2017,
Background
Franceâs Ministry of Defence (MoD) manages 250 000 ha of public land, of which 42 000 ha host habitats and species that are classified in the EU Habitats Directive and Birds Directive.
A lack of nature-based management approaches to dry grasslands owned by the MoD threatens these habitats, which are becoming overgrown with shrubs. In additi ...

Evaluation of phage therapy for the treatment of Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa burn wound infections (Phase I-II clinical trial) (PHAGOBURN)
Start date: Jun 1, 2013, End date: Feb 28, 2017,
Sepsis is the major problem of large burn patients and a predominant cause of death. The burn wound pathology, combined to a global intensive use of antibiotics (ATB), put patients at high risk of suffering from multidrug resistant (MDR) infections, notably carried out by the Gram-negative bacteria species: Pseudomonas aeruginosa or Escherichia coli. But the last Gram- ATB is more than 20 years ol ...

More Affordable Aircraft structure through eXtended, Integrated, and Mature nUmerical Sizing (MAAXIMUS)
Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2016,
Even though composite materials are more and more used in modern airframes, many significant improvements are still achievable. Firstly, the substitution of the assembly of many small composite parts by a single one-shot large part provides additional weight reduction. Secondly, the final assembly line process must be adapted to composite properties (lack of ductility, stiffness). Thirdly, if the ...

"Neutralizing antibodies against botulinum toxins A,B,E" (ANTIBOTABE)
Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Feb 28, 2015,
"Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs), the most toxic substances known, are susceptible for use as bioweapons (listed as class A agents by CDC). Currently licensed animal derived antibodies or F(ab’)2 preparations, are at a high risk of inducing adverse effects and their privately-owned stockpiles are limited. In this project, we will target the most lethal types of BoNTs: A (subtypes A1 and A2), B (B1 a ...

Physiopathology of decompression : risk factors for the formation of intravascular bubbles during decompression (PHYPODE)
Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
"Decompression sickness (DCS) is caused by circulating inert gas bubble formation in blood vessels and tissues resulting from supersaturation during inadequate decompression. It is an acknowledged risk of situations involving variations in ambient pressure, such as space flight and extravehicular activity, exposure to altitude, hyperbaric tunnelling intervention, as well as recreational and commer ...

Mitigate and assess risk from volcanic impact on terrain and human activities (MIAVITA)
Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2012,
In EU countries, volcanic risks assessment and management are tackled through scientific knowledge and monitoring, although there is still a need for integration between all risk management components. For international cooperation partner countries (ICPCs), the risk management depends on local situations but is often less favourable. Therefore, following UN International Strategy for Disaster Red ...
