LMGP’s Biological Matter & Materials Team, headed by biophysicist Dr. Catherine Picart, will soon have the pleasure of welcoming Dr. Thomas Boudou, a research project manager at CNRS. Dr. Boudou will draw on his biomechanical know-how to spearhead a breakthrough project on muscle tissue in association with the CEA’s iRSTV, the Albert-Bonniot Institute, and the […] >>

The Materials Science and Engineering Laboratory (LMGP) is now the proud owner of an atomic-force microscope (AFM) coupled with a fluorescence microscope. This €200,000 piece of state-of-the-art equipment was financed by the European Research Council (ERC) and is installed in CIME’s Nanomonde research center. The AFM will let LMGP scientists observe biological matter on a […] >>

Leti has recently entered into a partnership agreement with ESRF to increase its usage of the D2AM beamline. The two research centers have agreed to share time on the beamline over the next five years in order to facilitate and speed its usage (under two months). Young scientists supervised by both centers will carry out […] >>

The ultra-high bandwidth Wide I/O interface developed by Leti and ST-Ericsson will soon be used in a promising new way: to link two processors in a new system-on-chip, called MAG3D, for 4G telecoms applications. Incorporating the latest in 3D integration, MAG3D will deliver twice as much power as its predecessor, Magali, without having to go […] >>

Leti has developed a miniature version of its high-resolution helium 4 magnetometer that offers state-of-the-art sensitivity on a gas sample of just 100 mm3, or 320 times smaller than the full-size model. Leti, which carried out the development work in association with FEMTO-ST (a CNRS joint research unit), has filed a patent for a process […] >>
