The IMBM research team led by Catherine Picart (LMGP) has built a strong reputation in the development of bioactive materials for bone reconstruction. Picart’s work on breast cancer, however, is not as well known. The scientist recently joined the three-year, €2.2 million 3D-Oncochip project, which is backed by the French Single Interministerial Fund and led […] >>

Researchers at INAC have substantially improved the properties of a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) by inserting a layer of tungsten 0.2 nm to 0.3 nm thick into the MTJ’s upper electrode. Tungsten, a refractive material, is a good alternative to the tantalum currently used, ensuring thermal stability of the stack during annealing at temperatures up […] >>

Making sure that the Wi-Fi on board a Falcon jet is working properly before the jet is delivered can be a challenge. Keeping one of the corporate jets on the ground just to check the network is a hard business decision to justify. Researchers at Leti took physical measurements on board one of the jets […] >>

Did you know that the roof of the GreEn-Er building has been home to two beehives since the spring of 2016? The bees are currently resting for the winter under close surveillance—because the hives are connected! The high-tech hives were built and equipped with instruments by Grenoble Institute of Technology-Ense3 students for a class project. […] >>

At the end of November the First Step Challenge jury selected five startups to receive funding. A total of €676,000 was awarded to the five projects, with individual amounts determined according to the maturity of the project and the needs expressed. Additional support could be awarded within three to six months. In 2016 the projects […] >>
