Determining the conformational changes of multi-domain adaptor proteins drivi...
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) is driven by the assembly of adaptor proteins that participate in cargo selection, clathrin recruitment and membrane bending. Eps15, Dab2 and... -
Understanding dimethyl ether steam reforming over spinel-type CuO/ZnO/Al2O3 c...
Recently synthesized thermally stable, high surface area spinel type Cu-Zn-Al based catalysts have been shown to outperform the state-of-the-art industrial catalysts for... -
Rise and fall of the Rhynchocephalia: understanding rates of morphological ch...
Rhynchocephalia is the sister-group of Squamata (lizards and snakes). Originating in the earliest Triassic, their fossil record is very rich and diverse during the Mesozoic, but... -
Tracking the spatiotemporal chemistry of a RuO2 catalyst under CO2 methanatio...
We recently discovered a new Ru material that activates CO2 and H2 at low temperatures (160-180 °C), catalyzing the formation of methane with competitive methane production... -
In situ observation of polymer impregnation pyrolysis (PIP) manufacture of Si...
Ceramic matrix composites are promising ultra high temperature materials because the fibres can increase the toughness over monolithic ceramics. These are needed to reduce our... -
Resolution of the high-pressure phase of Hydrochlorothiazide
Hydrochlorothiazide (HCT) exhibits pressure-induced polymorphism. The new high-pressure form can be accessed above 0.8 GPa. During this reconstructive phase transition, the... -
Studying the in-depth nature of medieval ferrous alloys using X-ray Diffracti...
Studying the nature of the metal used to produce medieval objects is of great interest for the history of techniques. As sampling possibilities are very limited in case of... -
Determining the Structures of the Low-Temperature CDW and long rang ordering ...
We will develop low temperature high pressure XRD to determine the nature of the three charge density waves (CDW) found in uranium (dU) and provide information regarding the... -
Studying structural distortions of metal nodes in Zr-based MOFs during cataly...
Zr-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with well-defined Zr oxo clusters emerged as a promising class of heterogeneous catalysts. Defects on these metal-oxide clusters are... -
Understand the contribution of mono- and divalent ions on the thermal stabili...
Low Acyl Gellan Gum (LAGG) has a wide range of applications in the food industry due to its optical clarity and high gel strength. Owing to due to their lubrication as well as... -
In-situ microtomography on the leaching behaviour of Raney-Type Nickel
The increasing demand for green hydrogen for both energy and industry is pushing for progress in water electrolysis. In this project we want to apply microtomography to study... -
Investigating Magnetoelastic Coupling in a Polar Helical Magnetic System: A S...
Our research focuses on Ni2ScSbO6, a layered triangular lattice material exhibiting complex correlated phenomena. At a temperature of TN=61 K, it develops noncollinear... -
In situ characterization of the melting line of rhodium
We propose to perform a thorough investigation of the phase diagram of rhodium up to 150 GPa and 6000 K combining laser-heated diamond anvil cell and X-ray diffraction... -
Operando SAXS mapping of the formulation path of Lipid Nanocapsules (LNC) for...
Our aim is to conduct operando SAXS 2D-mapping experiments where Drug Delivery Systems (DDS) are formulated within a microfluidic Lab-On-Chips device. For this, a new generation... -

Syndiotactic polypropylene (sPP) synthesized with stereoselective metallocene catalysts is an interesting material combining mechanical properties characteristic of... -
Characterization of phases of interest for corium : chernobylite and oxide ba...
During severe nuclear accident, the loss of cooling leads to HT reactions between UO2 and surrounding materials, forming corium and containing Zr1-xUxO2 phase. When contact with... -
Higher than 6-fold Ge-O coordination transition in glassy GeO2 beyond 160 GPa...
We aim to unambiguously clarify the compression mechanism of glassy GeO2 beyond 150 GPa and more specifically to study the occurrence of a higher Ge coordination than 6-fold,... -
Structure and function of the mammalian circuits for olfaction
How is information processed in the brain? How does the wiring of brain cells relate to their function? How does one brain differ from another? These are some of the most... -
The effects of stress on phase reaction progress and position in depth-temper...
At nominal depths of 410 and 660km in the Earth, there are distinct changes in density and seismic wave speed. These features arise from phase changes in (Mg,Fe)2SiO4. At 410km... -
