MSCA Doctoral Networks 2025 - 4 projects for the Aix-Marseille site
The Aix-Marseille site stands out in the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions - Doctoral Networks 2025 calls, with four projects selected, one as coordinator and three as partners.
The SOLSTIS project, led by Sébastien MARIA of the Institut de Chimie Radicalaire (ICR), aims to develop battery-free electronic devices using organic photovoltaic cells and innovative energy storage systems. By combining academic research and industrial partnerships, it aims to make connected objects more sustainable and environmentally friendly.
With ANA-KIN, by Xavier MORELLI, involving the Centre de Recherche en Cancérologie de Marseille (CRCM), research is focusing on new drug discovery strategies targeting kinases.
The MORPHEOS project, led by Lorenzo FONTOLAN of INMED, proposes to rethink computer architectures by drawing inspiration from the way the brain works. By developing neuromorphic devices based on artificial ion channels and fluidic circuits, it aims to design more energy-efficient computing systems.
Finally, cisCODE, involving the TAGC laboratory and coordinated by Salvatore Spicuglia, aims to decipher the human regulatory genome. By combining cutting-edge genomics, artificial intelligence and synthetic biology, the project aims to better understand the role of non-coding DNA regions in gene expression, in order to improve diagnosis and promote the development of precision therapies.
Through these four projects, the Aix-Marseille site confirms its involvement in high-level European doctoral training networks, helping to train a new generation of researchers in strategic scientific fields.
