James Schmidt has expertise in research on learning, attention, cognitive control, and neural networks. His primary experimental research line focuses on human contingency learning. That is, he studies how we learn (often unconsciously) the regularities in our environment and use this knowledge to better interact with our world. He also does a lot of research on attention and cognitive control, albeit primarily as a critic of mainstream cognitive control theories. This includes work on conflict monitoring and attentional control, in addition to recent work on task switching. He has considerable expertise in neural network modelling. In particular, he programmed a neural network model of episodic memory that he has been applying widely to a broad range of research fields. He has also published work on temporal learning, formal reasoning, binding, and the Stroop effect.<\/p>\n

Keywords: <\/strong>cognitive psychology, neural networks, contingency learning, binding, attention, cognitive control, timing, task switching, computational modelling, episodic memory.<\/em><\/p>\n

General conclusion:<\/strong>
\nThe project made several theoretical and applied advances. The project contributed to our knowledge of basic processes in human contingency learning and the optimal conditions for learning new information. This work was further applied to early music learning, with strongly encouraging results. The work also contributed to our understanding of cognitive control, specifically, how we deal with changing task environments and how we deal with conflicting information. Several reports also explored the nature and organization of bilingual memory. Finally, a practical application for data concatenation was published for free and open use.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Taro KIMURA\u2019s scientific expertise is based on theoretical physics, in particular, mathematical aspects of quantum field theory. He has been working on supersymmetric gauge theory and superstring theory with emphasis on its connection to quantum algebraic structure, e.g., W-algebras, quantum affine algebras, arising through deformation quantization of the associated moduli space. He also has been exploring the geometric correspondence between the gauge theory moduli space and the classical\/quantum integrable system. The main tools used in his studies are based on the geometric and algebraic approach to matrix model, quantum inverse scattering method in quantum integrable systems and the path integral localization for supersymmetric gauge theory.<\/p>\n

General conclusion:<\/strong>
\nDuring the project \u201cCQAG\u201d, I have worked mainly on Quantum Field Theory, which is one of the most universal methodologies in Theoretical and Mathematical Physics. I have explored its mathematical aspects and various applications. One of the main results of the project is about the infinite dimensional algebraic structure associated with the moduli space of gauge theory. For example, I have elucidated that the equivariant integral over the quiver variety is concisely described using the vertex operators obtained through quantization of the moduli space. I have also explored the geometric correspondence between gauge theory and quantum integrable system (Bethe\/Gauge correspondence) for orthogonal\/symplectic gauge theory and for supergroup gauge theory.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Olivier BURGY has acquired significant expertise in pulmonary fibrosis. He has studied the mechanisms leading to the development and progression of pulmonary fibrosis and the heat shock proteins (HSP) involvement in these processes, as well as their role as potential therapeutic targets. His work has shown that inhibition of HSPB5 (HSP that promotes cell migration and invasion by modulating signal transduction pathways in cancer pathologies) inhibits fibrosis induced by the anti-cancer agent bleomycin. Olivier BURGY has also developed a research axis on the role of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in experimental and human pulmonary fibrosis. Through his scientific career, he has acquired a solid knowledge of cellular and molecular biology, particularly in development signalling (TGF, WNT) and in wound healing\/tissue fibrosis processes.<\/p>\n

With her background in ecology and political science, Juliette YOUNG has developed a unique interdisciplinary expertise in political ecology (consideration of human dimensions in the conservation of Nature). Her research, carried out in different settings (agriculture, forestry, fishing, hunting) and contexts (Europe, Asia, Africa), covers the policy cycle from its inception to its implementation. It integrates science-policy dialogue, knowledge co-production, associated conservation conflicts and their resolution, and evaluation of social and biodiversity outcomes. Juliette YOUNG is involved in new interdisciplinary research in which she adapts her portfolio of social science skills and methodologies to better understand socio-ecological systems, advancing knowledge to ensure a more sustainable future.<\/p>\n

General conclusion:<\/p>\n

The TRANSFORM project started with the premise that curent failures to move towards more sustainable farming are due to conflicts between actors with different values and goals related to agriculture. Our results based on a transdisciplinary approach integrating key actors from the start of our research indicate that there are different visions of what an ideal agriculture might look like. Being forced to shift to another vision can cause conflicts as it means a complete transformation of ones own values and norms. A number of barriers and levers to change were identified through the project most of which were at the. relational institutional and cultural level – meaning we need to focus less on the need to change individual farmers but focus more on a holistic approach involving many other relevant stakeholders and addressing broader issues of power and democracy.
\nThe Transformation Labs allowed stakehoIders to buiId on conflicts as a positive motor for change, jointly identifying solutions that couId lead to transformation at all levels.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Fabrice DAMON area of expertise is the cognitive development of human and nonhuman primates with a special focus on social cognition through the perspective of face processing. Familiar with the theoretical and technical aspects of facial processing, he is also proficient in designing infant research paradigms (e.g.<\/em> habituation, visual paired comparison, etc.<\/em>) using behavioral and imaging measures (e.g.<\/em> eye-tracking, EEG, etc.<\/em>). Fabrice DAMON is particularly interested in gaze behavior, which can inform on multisensory integration, for instance in the audiovisual (e.g.<\/em> detection of synchronous audiovisual flow) or in the visuo-olfactory domain (e.g.<\/em> face scanning in context of odor, odor\/facial emotion matching). His work has led to the identification of a common mechanism of face perception in human and macaque infants, the finding of a strong visual for adult faces in infants during the first 6 months of life and the finding of a species-specific effect of face attractiveness in adult humans and macaques, highlighting the interaction of mate-choice adaptation mechanisms (species-specific) and general sensory biases (shared between primates).<\/p>\n

\u03c0-extension of aromatic compounds by intramolecular oxidative coupling with a peripheral conjugated substituent (=fusion reaction) is currently an active research field in molecular chemistry since numerous potential applications are expected (PDT,IR absorption, solar cells, molecular conducting materials\u2026). This project aims at 1) synthesizing porphyrinic precursors to be fused, 2) synthesizing and exploring the reactivity of fused compounds, 3) transferring the reactivity observed in solution onto a surface by grafting the unfused precursors\/fused compounds leading to switchable materials.<\/p>\n
